It may be dry in the mountains but there are still a few boot eating bogs out there as poor Bethany found out while on exped. First time I have seen a trowel used to dig a foot out!

Last weekend was the first weekend of our split weekend Mountain Leader Training and Jonty & Dave were out with the team. 3 days of navigating, introducing ropework and steep ground, emergency procedures and hazards all wrapped up in leadership.

A truly stunning week on Skye with Lucy. It was Lucyâs first time in the Cuillin and we bagged 4 new Munroâs over the 3 days.
Long May this weather last.

Skye this week working for my good friend @RobJohnsonMIC It is a week of scrambling in the Cuillin and it has been a great start to the week if a little chilly at times. ~ Sandy

We certainly lucked out with the weather on our Mountain Leader expedition.
A good few days exploring the area around Sgor Gaoith and Beinn Bhrotain. Including seeing some very well camouflaged ptarmigan(see last two photos).

Ian & I are running our first Mountain Leader Assessment of the year this week. 2 days of looks and hazards, looking after others, chatting about the environment & generally inspiring people in the mountains.

A few photos from last weeks Hill and Moorland Leader training. Careful selection of venues to make sure we avoided as many ground nesting birds as possible.

While Ian and Kirsty were delivering an ML and I was out running a HML Jonty escaped south for a weeks climbing in Pembroke. A week of sunshine, quality limestone and plenty of tea shop time! BRILLIANT

12 more trainee Mountain Leaders on their way to the consolidation phase. It is lovely to have kicked off the season for us even if some lower than normal venues were used due to freezing temperatures and snow!

Ian, Kirsty and Jonty have kicked off our first Mountain Leader Training this week. It has been a chilly week but mainly dry so far and it has been great to have a team of 12 keen candidates getting stuck into the course.

Scotland really is beautiful, and the colours at this time of year are brilliant.
Jonty and I spent a few days up in the North East last week. A day walking around the Dunnet Head headland and a day doing a section on the John o' Groats Trail from Helmsdale to Berridale.
A chilly first Mountain Leader Assessment preparation weekend. It did not stop Jonty and Kev taking two teams of 4 out navigating in some fairly serious conditions. Thankfully the steep ground day was a little nicer but chilly on the hands.
@MtnTraining @MtnTrngScotland
Jonty and Dave were out at the end of last week enjoying the last of the warm spell. Perfect weather up in the North West for some cragging at Aztec Tower near Gairloch.
@the_AMI@MtnTrngScotland @MtnTraining @MT_Association @rab_equipment@lowealpine
Brilliant film from Morag. Worth stopping & thinking about all the information we get from sound in the mountains and on the crags. Another element to add to our development list at SOTRG, how we make our courses more accessible.

Out blowing off the cobwebs today with Jonty for a short days cragging in the sun, although the belay jacket probably tells you a bit about the temperature!
Looking forward to the summer đ
