"If adventure has a final and all-embracing motive, it is surely this: we go out because it is our nature to go out, to climb mountains, and to paddle rivers, to fly to the planets and plunge into the depths of the oceans... When man ceases to do these things, he is no longer man." |

This course is designed to provide a base of knowledge and skills, so that you can confidently travel around in the winter mountain environment. All the days are designed to be in the mountains travelling up to an altitude of between 650m – 910m using real situations to demonstrate and learn the skills. The course however can be tailored to your requirements, so if there is a peak that you want to climb or an area that you want to get to know, then great, we will try and fit it in. |
"In the mountains there are only two grades: You can either do it, or you can't." |
