The Lake District can have some spectacular winter conditions but they can sadly be here one day and not the next. As a result we will endevour to run our courses locally but we also operate across Scotland in winter to deliver in more reliable conditions.

Winter Skills
This course will give you the basic skills to operate safely in winter.
We will cover all the fundamental skills like: what to wear, how to use your winter boots and ice axe to assist walking, crampon use, self-arresting with your ice axe, avalanche awareness and navigation.
If you have more than 1 day we will go into more detail with navigation tactics in winter conditions, emergency shelters and then will try to use the skills to summit a peak or two.
