NEW Avalanche Avoidance Training Day


I have added a new course to the winter program for 2015. This is a one day workshop based from Fort William focusing on avalanche avoidance.

This course is suitable for walkers, climbers, mountaineers and off piste skiers and snowboarders who would like to develop an awareness of avalanche avoidance.

We spend the day looking at practical tips to avoid being avalanched. The course is based upon my practical experience as a full time Mountaineering Instructor (MIC), off piste skier, alpiniste and Mountain Rescue Team member. The day will include both theory and practical application on the mountain and is structured to give you a greater understanding of what an avalanche is, where they are most likely to occur and how to avoid them.
