Amazing two days with pupils from Tiree High School in Glencoe.

Interesting times on the Aonach.

The crazy pinnacles!

The finish of the Zig zAGS!!!

On the Zig- zags.

The last two days have been stunning on the West Coast!

Andy and Adrian guided the 'ZIG-ZAGS' and the classic 'Aonach Eagach Ridge'. The pupils from Tiree did so so well! Considering they had never really been above sea level before their determination and spirit was fantastic!

The weather has been just wonderful, the enjoyable ten hours on the ridge was perfectly warm, a little breeze and a lovely sunset as we walked down.

The guys were tiered on getting back to the campsite but elated at their achievements, well done. we look forward to next years adventures in Glencoe.

Tiree High School pupils visit the mountains today!

On the summit of eilde beag!

what a view from .956m

Andy and Adrian were guiding a group from Tiree High School on their annual 3 days mountain adventures with Hebridean Pursuits.

Today the weather was kind to us, a wet start but fantastic summit views and a wet return to the mini bus! so lucky...

We ascended Sgor Eilde Beag .956m and descended via the beautiful Lochans below.

An amazing experience for the young people as they had never even been to 100m above sea level!

Out at Tavool House Outdoor centre on Mull we have another group staying this week, they have travelled up form Brixton, so a great journey starting in the south and continuing in the north! www.Tavool.com for all outdoor activities, family parties, university field trips etc.

Blog Walks by Andy Spink MIC Glencoe, Stob Coire nan Lochan

Andy was out in Glencoe today, here is another Blog Walk.

Conditions were perfect high up this morning, the high pressure that has set in and it feels like summer again! It's due to get colder at night, but we hope it lasts as we are working the long bank holiday weekend on scrambling courses in Glencoe.

Climbing Experiences Day.

A great age to get into climbing!

Tying into the harness practice.

Will above the sea!

Ice Factor ropes course, great fun!

Andy was out with Will [13 yrs old] today having a variety of climbing experiences, the High Ropes course at the Ice Factor, indoor climbing on the wall, outside rock climbing at a local crag near Oban and Abseiling. A really fun day especially as the weather improved so much as the the day went on!
