Winter skills evening Sunday 21st January 7.00 club room

A session for those who want to brush up on winter skills before the Roy Bridge trip and other forays into the winter, covering:

– personal equipment in the winter, including clothing, boots, axe and crampons – bring your boots and crampons to check fitting
– use of axe and crampons – as best we can in the club room!
– snow structure and avalanches
– planning a day using weather forecasts (MWIS), Scottish avalanche information service, and UK climb winter
– winter climbing kit

The session is led by Geoff and Pete Mcglynn. And anybody else who wants to contribute.
