Spring in the air, but winter is still clinging on! #winterskills #wintermountaineering #hillwalking

9th April 2019

Spring is definitely in the air but winter hasn't given up quite yet. 

Last week it turned cold again and it felt more like February at times. Although this brought some ski touring and winter walking/ mountaineering back into condition, it's all a bit too-little-too-late! 

We've had various teams out for winter mountaineering, rock climbing, hill walking and winter skills. Conditions this week have been almost Alpine, and if you're heading out make sure you wear suncream!!!

Overall this winter has been challenging, but we've still managed to deliver good quality training through being flexible, creative and having an excellent team. We've had over 300 people out this season, our busiest ever. Thanks as always to all those who've chosen to book with us.

Here's hoping for a long hot summer.

Brilliant winter skills course led by Emma. The course felt personal to our ambitions and goals. Emma tailored every aspect of the weekend to give us the best training we could want. Emma’s knowledge and experience was evident and allowed us to feel confident in every decision and exercise we conducted. Would recommend this company for anyone who wants to learn winter skills in a safe and controlled manner this was worth every penny
