Curved Ridge, Buachaille Etive Mor - New Vlog

A couple of weeks ago, on my way up to the Isle of Skye, I camped behind the Kings House Hotel on the edge of Rannoch Moor, at the entrance to Glen Coe. An early start saw me at the bottom of Buachaille Etive Mor for sunrise and I climbed Curved Ridge as the new day dawned. I was lucky enough to get the ridge to myself with some stunning views in all directions and then have smooth air for the flight down. This was my third attempt at filming the route and so it is lovely to be able to share it with you, I hope you enjoy it: https://youtu.be/8SFsuqlPL7Q

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.
