Beautiful Winter Days in February
Go Further clients have experienced a series of special days on some of the north’s most famous peaks in perfect winter conditions.
In the first half of the month we found ourselves on Slioch – just north of Loch Maree (in the distance in the picture above with Torridon in the background). Here the group are just hitting the snow line at about 1500 feet.
Later that week we moved south to Torridon where this picture was taken of the the main Beinn Eighe ridge from the Liathach ridge. For more details on Torridon see here.
Liathach is a special mountain at any time of the year but, combined with An Teallach and Beinn Eighe, can there be a better series of winter summits to aim for on the Scottish mainland?
Another great day out is to tackle the Black Carls on the Beinn Eighe Ridge – one of the best Wester Ross scrambles and, in the winter, a great mountaineering adventure. Here the group is heading onto the main ridge…
…and here (below) we are heading towards the start of the Carls.
