Distance - 8km
Ascent - 900m
Time - 6/8 hours
This mountain makes for a spectacular day in summer, but in winter it really does offer an excellent winters day out. Nothing too demanding but a day where your winter skills will be put to test with the use of crampons ( depending on snow conditions ) on the steep, rugged west coast mountains. The view of the mountains with their winter jackets on is one you will not forget!
This event is suited to those who have been on a winter skills course with use of crampons and ice axe or have previous winter hiking experience with use of crampons and ice axe.
What the day includes -
Meeting in the morning we will set off gaining ascent straight away for this hike, the pace will be kept steady whilst the legs and lungs get warmed up! Reaching the bealach we stop for a break before continuing along the ridge line to our first munro, Stob Dubh.
Retracing our steps back to the bealach to re ascend once again. A short but steep ascent for our second Munro , Stob Coire Raineach. Throughout the day, depending on the snowpack conditions you will get to put your winter skills to practice.
