East Ridge of Beinn a Chaorainn

 Rachel, Angus and I headed up the East Ridge of Beinn a Chaorainn today for the first day of our mountaineering course. It was a beautiful day and it’s always ace to be out with Rach. We were all blown away by how much the snow stripped back yesterday - it felt like a summers day today. Nonetheless the route gave us an excellent day and it’s not a hardship to enjoy some Scottish mountaineering in good weather 😀

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.
