Back for more ...

Following on from the soaking he got last week Kevin was persuaded to head to the hills once more. This time I promised, blue skies and snow. I didn’t tell him it would be cold but he should have guessed with the layering and fatter gloves!

Ben Donich is a great hill for your first winter hill walk, it feels like a proper mountain journey with lots of ups and downs and interesting rock features. There was lots of wind blown snow but we were able to pick our way round all of it making for a more interesting but circuitous route.

Kevin did really well for his first time in crampons with good balance and weight distribution…
