Buachaille Etive Beag..

Today was the first of a five day Scottish Winter Hill Walking Course for Plas Y Brenin.

With a relatively high freezing level and rain/snow showers forecast we decided to visit Buachaille Etive Beag.

We took in the summit as well as looking at axe use, movement on steeper ground and found the time to do some snowpack analysis.

Further north on Ben Nevis it sounds like quite a few teams were turning round at the CIC hut. Fingers crossed for a drop on the freezing level..
