Beinn Teallach Guided Winter Hike Today β„οΈπŸ”οΈ

Another great winters day out today, great to see new and returning clients πŸ˜„ huge well done to Stacey, Susan, Hazel, Julie & Cherly.

Guide Nate was back out today for some more Munro Bagging. With changing weather forecasts there was a good gap to get out in the morning before the winds increased, so a plan was to take the day as it comes and see how everyone gets on.

Beinn Teallach Summit was achieved, keeping the day to just one Munro and making a circuit dropping down to the Bealach and into the Coire for the walk out with some controlled bum slides on the descent πŸ˜„

Another great day on the hills, thanks to everyone for joining us and massive thanks to guide Nate for another great day out this winter 😎

Guide Nate was out yesterday with a group, sadly the Gondola ended up out of action so a big pull up to reach the summit of Anoach Mor it was πŸ’ͺ🏻 a wee change to the original plans but a great winters day out was still achieved πŸ˜„

Hard going conditions underfoot where the team had to dig deep breaking through lots of thawing snow to achieve their summit.

Another Winters day on the hills today ❄️

It was great to see returning clients Hannah & Annie πŸ™ŒπŸ» huge well done to you both and thanks for joining us. Sadly there was a few cancellations for today.

Today’s original aim was for Ben Starav, but with a forecast of strengthening winds in the afternoon, Staravs route didn’t make for the safest route with changing conditions. A back up plan was required, as after all winter hiking requires constant assessment , being able to adapt plans, decision making and accepting that your chosen summit isn’t always achievable.

A few plans were put to the girls as an alternative still offering an epic winters day out on broader ridges and taking shelter from the winds on ascent & descent. Buachaille Etive Mor was opted for taking the day as it comes aiming for Stob Dearg first.

A contrast to yesterday - crampons were required all day , it shows you how quick the conditions underfoot can change with a thaw over night stripping off the deep soft snow.

With the change in conditions overnight this meant the snowpack was ideal for crampon use , Nate shared his skills and knowledgeable with the girls offering advice as they built their winter skills set & confidence further.

After Stob Dearg they retraced their steps and headed for Stob Na Doire before continuing on.
As a group they decided it was time to descend off hill , keeping in mind the days are shorter and the walk back out to the cars.

Another epic winters day out on the hills , the girls learnt absolutely loads today and a proper winters days out was delivered.

Huge thanks to Nate for guiding this weekends event πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ”οΈβ„οΈ

Hello winter πŸ˜β„οΈ

Guide : Nate is back with us this year guiding and instructing all of our winter events πŸ”οΈ

It was great to see returning clients Lorna and Stacey and meet new clients Alessandra , Laura, Carol & Kirsty ☺️ huge well done to you all and thank you for joining us.

Today was a day on 2 of the Black Mount Munros. After meeting in the morning at the ski resort and sorting their winter kit out they headed off on the steep pull up Meall A Bhuiridh, getting the legs and lungs warmed up early!

The weather was kind but with biting cold winds upon reaching the Summit of Meall a Bhuiridh πŸ”οΈ with time getting on and the ridge between the two munros felt a bit to much for some, a group decision was made to enjoy the day and just stick with the one Munro.

With the new plans in place Nate decided to add in some winter skills on descent giving the group a chance to work on their skill set whilst offering advice and sharing his knowledge throughout the day too πŸ™ŒπŸ»

The team didn’t get the two summits today but a brilliant day out was still achieved with a lovely group of ladies.

Massive thanks to guide Nate for delivering a brilliant day out ❄️πŸ₯ΆπŸ”️
