Description

Scotland's Winter Mountains with One Axe is a comprehensive guide to 30 easily accessible mountain journeys in Scotland's winter landscape. The book features detailed descriptions of classic winter ridges, including the Aonach Eagach, Liathach, and An Teallach, as well as big gullies in the Northwest, such as Deep South Gully on Beinn Alligin and Morrison's Gully on Beinn Eighe. All routes are graded at I and II, making them suitable for a traditional approach with just one axe and minimal gear. Three easy routes have been included to provide a step-up from winter hillwalking. The book is accompanied by bespoke colour maps and 116 colour photographs showcasing Scotland's spectacular mountain scenery. With 24 years of teaching climbing and mountain skills in the Highlands, the author brings a wealth of knowledge to this guide, making it an ideal resource for anyone looking to explore Scotland's winter mountains from the comfort of their own home.
