The last few weeks...

The Winter season is in full swing now. Here are some pictures with captions of my work and play over the last few weeks:
A snowy trip on Ben Nevis for Abacus Mountain Guides


2 days with Mark looking at Winter Skills and navigation- deep snow on Buachaille Etive Beag on Day 1!


A trip up to Mullach nan Correan on Day 2....

And a visit to the white room!...
Abbing down to go climbing
