New Film - The CMD Arete on Ben Nevis

Towards the end of the winter season (2024) I got the weather forecast I had been waiting for to allow me to climb The Ben via the CMD Arete and fly from the summit. It was a beautiful day and fantastic to be able to fly all the way back to the car, making for a 15 minute descent instead of a couple of hours.

Teaching winter mountaineering today with Fabio and Mark. It’s been a bit more blustery than of late so we stayed lower and got them on the sharp end in ascent and descent. Bit of a turbo thaw coming in tomorrow but a great start to winter. Fancy joining us for more of this? Check out Expeditionguide.com for our full winter programme.
