Winter Mountaineering in Scotland 2010

 

You can book us for any number of days and we will design the course exactly to your needs.  We can teach you to use crampons and ice axe for the first time or if you have a bit more experience we can teach you to lead climb in winter conditions.  Or if you just want to go out and get as much scrambling or climbing done as possible we can guide you up some classic routes.  The following three courses are just some ideas of how you might like to spend your time in Scotland but if you want to do something different just let us know.  All courses are £180/day split between the participants.
