Five full days of practical instruction in the mountains

- Emergency snow shelters
- Mountain journeys putting all of the skills into perspective
- Mountain navigation
- Planned snow shelters

- Cold weather injury avoidance
- Emergency procedures

The cost is £350 per person and you can get further details here: http://www.expeditionguide.com/winterskills.htm


I also have 1 last space on a 3 day winter mountaineering course to get you onto routes from Grade 1 to Grade 3 in Scotland. The course is running from 14-16 March and costs £375. Further details are available here: http://www.expeditionguide.com/winter%20mountaineering%20course%203%20day.h...

Cheers for now
