This year Highland Ascent has had a good start in runningwinter Skills courses. For the first time they ran a 5 day course, whichincluded an over night stay in a snow hole.As many people know hillwalking in the winter is a differentballgame to the summer. You are depending much more on your personal skills towalk on snow and you have to be able to read the surrounding area of snow tomake sure there isnt any danger of an avalanche. You also need to know whatweather conditions you are able to walk in. You could end up in a white out andthen you would have to be able to navigate yourself out of it by just usingyour compass bearing and a map. You have to ask yourself if you are able to dothat. You can then decide whether to pay a guide to take you safely up a hilland back down again or you could learn those skills so you can walk in winterconditions in the future. It cant be just done by reading a book. You have toget out there and do it. Highland Ascent offers Winter Mountaineering Skills Coursesand guided winter walking in the Highlands of Scotland.
