BAIML Workshops - Winter mountain travel, safety and avalanche awareness - ski tour CPD day in the Cairngorms
Workshop or Session Description: This 1 day course will help develop the skills, knowledge and confidence to enjoy ski adventures in the Scottish Mountains. It is aimed at folk who have some winter mountain experience and want to travel by ski to spice up winter trips and as a way to tour through the mountains to Munros or Corbetts. The course will focus on skills for touring, rather than off-piste down-hill technique and performance.
During the day we will cover important IML skills for safe winter travel including route choice, navigation, equipment, BAA and TSP for companion rescue.
Cost: Cost is £40 for the day, plus option £20 for the accommodation the night before. All proceeds are used to cover rental costs for Badaguish Outdoor Centre for the week to fund a ‘winter skills’ experience for pupils from an East Lothian school on the following 3 days.
