Guided Winter Mountaineering
Classic guided winter mountaineering, high on one of the 5 great ridges of Ben Nevis
This course is designed for folk with existing experience of using ice axe and crampons, a good level of fitness, a head for heights and the desire to take their winter mountaineering on to a more technical level. With a maximum group size of 3 we are then able to tackle some of the classic winter mountaineering challenges of the Scottish Highlands. This could be a classic ridge traverse between famous summits (Like Liatach or the Forcan Ridge) or some steeper gully climbing (like Central Gully on Ben Lui or No2. Gully on Ben Nevis).
