MIC action

Last week Rudders and I joined 4 keen young instructors for 5 days winter mountaineering instructor training. The theme for the week was wild and windy wintry weather…which I suppose is what it’s all about. We visited Glencoe mostly, mountaineering around Buachaille Etive Beag and Stob Coire nan Lochan and its 3 sisters. An attempt to climb on the West side of Aonach Mor was blown out literally a few minutes from the base of the routes….none of us wanting to become a statistic for the sake of a syllabus!

The candidates were awesome…I hope they learnt a few things through all the wind and spindrift. Thanks for a great week.

Never has walking back down a  flat Glen been so exciting....or tiring!
