Happy New Year...

Happy New Year to you all..! I am still out in the alps at the moment and have visited Val D'Isere and Verbier in the last week or so experiencing some good conditions.

Back in Chamonix we were welcomed into 2009 with a fresh dump of snow last night. Chris Walker and Alison Culshaw were quick to take advantage skiing the Glacier Toule into Italy. Fresh tracks and thigh deep powder allegedly!!

Back in Scotland it looks like colder conditions are returning with a few parties climbing ephemeral ice routes on Ben Nevis and Aonach Mor. There is still some availability for winter mountaineering, winter skills and winter climbing courses. Please feel free to get in touch..
