Very 'wintry' conditions for last week's Scotland courses, with strong winds, heavy snow showers and an extensive snowpack. Thanks to all for making it an enjoyable experience despite the challenging conditions.

Good to find some decent ice in North Wales this week for some preparation before an upcoming trip to Scotland for Harry. It's been a while.

That's about it for my rock climbing courses this year - might get out now and again if the weather is kind, otherwise it's a bit of lull before the winter courses kick in. The early season snow always raises a bit of excitement and I'm looking forward to getting out in the 'white stuff'

Just back from Scotland and my last 'winter' course for this season - although we did get out on some excellent snow, the latest trip was more 'Alpine' with the blue skies and sunshine. The unusual conditions capped off an 'unusual' winter with even more ups and downs than normal. Saying that, I've been lucky to avoid the worst of the downs and even got some good conditions in North Wales - the best for a few years. Now for some summer rock climbing.

After some unexpectedly warm and pleasant days rock climbing recently the current cold snap has been a bit of a reminder that the winter season is upon us - with a few excited emails asking about snow and ice conditions; unfortunately good conditions take a while to develop and although fresh snow makes for pretty pictures, that doesn't always mean good conditions - but at least it is a start!
Simon Richardson's book's title 'Chasing the Ephemeral' sums it up pretty well

Back from The Isle of Skye and just starting to recover - it's been a while since I've done back to back Cuillin Ridge traverses - where we experienced some of the challenges and delights these special mountains can provide. Jon and Keira did well to keep going and keeping it all together during their long second day in worse than expected weather. Kieran on the other hand, struck lucky with perfect conditions to finish the traverse after having to abandon his first attempt ten years ago

Well into the rock climbing season now, although this week is the first time I've packed suncream and not a jacket - roll on summer.

A very enjoyable few days in the Cairngorms to finish off my winter courses for this season. With the old snow and 'better than forecast' weather giving us some good conditions for an 'Alpine Prep' course. Thanks to Matt, Emily, John and hopefully everything goes as well on their Mont Blanc trip later in the year.

Another round up of recent trips to North Wales, Glencoe and the Northern Cairngorms - as ever, a range of weather and conditions to challenge and delight. Good to bump into some familiar faces from previous courses - putting the skills to good use. Thanks to Barry, Rob, Ashton, Iarla, Eloise, Josh, Noemi and Vivek for an entertaining few days.
