mountaineering course

I spent the weekend with Neil & Ania on a mountaineering course. We spent saturday on Aonach Mor looking at loads of mountaineering skills including cramponing and simple climbing. On Sunday we went to Ben Nevis and they both climbed Ledge Route II in 'alpine condition'.

Neil:

Tim,

Thanks for a great day out on Ledge Route with Ania. With the exception of Aconcagua summit day last december, that was the best mountain day out I've had in years.

Despite the lighthearted, unrushed pace, we seemed to cover so much over the whole weekend and I really felt I got a lot for my money.

I'll definitely recommend you to anyone else I know looking for a guide.

Have a good holiday in Morocco.

Regards

Neil

Ania:

Many thanks once again for the training weekend. I thoroughly enjoyed it
and with no doubt this is thanks to your excellent guiding, teaching and social
skills! I hope you would be glad to hear that it was an inspiring weekend
for me and would definitely like to do some more stuff this winter - if
there only will be enough snow in the mountains!

Ania
