Review
The Scottish Mountaineering Club's selected climbs guide that covers all the popular winter climbing areas in Scotland.
Ben Nevis
Cairngorms
Glencoe
Cobbler
Northern Highlands
Creag Meaghidh
Uses the two tier grading throughout -
don't be suprised if some routes are now graded harder than when you did them using nails and a hemp-rope!
Pictures and diagrams are superb throughout and it offers sound advice. A must for the first-time Scottish Winter climber or armchair mountaineer - buy this along with your first ice screw...
