Intro to Winter Skills - Glenmore Lodge, Aviemore

Join Alistair and Douglas as they head to Glenmore Lodge for a 2 day Intro to Winter Skills training course. The course is designed to introduce you to a range of core skills that will enable you to enjoy and move about the UK’s mountains in winter conditions competently and confidently. These 2 days will leave you feeling confident with the use of ice axe and crampons, winter navigation and coping with winter weather. You will gain avalanche awareness, as well as how to generally equip yourself for the hills at this magical time of year.

Thanks Alan! We’d definitely recommend it. They do loads of different courses, not just winter stuff.

Thanks for sharing this guys. Definitely gave me food for thought as I recently purchased my first ice axe but not had a practice run with it, who knows it might be used next weekend! Hopefully not though haha. Great video as always guys.
