Winter Mountaineering Course
Duration 3 days, Grade Introductory (grades)
Background
This Course is ideal for the keen hill walker and scrambler who wants to progress and learn the essential skills of winter mountaineering. It differs from our Winter Walking Course in that there is an emphasis on progression towards steeper ground and the use of ropes to ascend some classic grade l/ll gullies and ridges towards the end of the Course. Previous experience: Good level of fitness and the enjoyment of exposed ridges, roped climbing experience useful but not essential.
The course will cover:
- Use of ice axe and crampons
- Simple ropework and belaying
- Snow & ice climbing skills and classic grade l/ll gullies and ridges.
- Winter mountain navigation and route planning
- Winter weather and avalanche avoidance
If 2 people book together, the cost will be reduced to £625 each for 6 days, and £295 each for 3 days.
