Winter alpine climbing course – advanced

Courses | Mountaineering / mixed

Snow couloirs and gullies

Although the name alone may have hostile connotations, winter mountaineering has an incredible charm and is a source of great fun. True, everything seems more difficult and more, how to say it… “cold”! But in reality this is not always the case! Everything is covered with snow and takes on a new shape with every falling flake. The white coat on the walls, worked by the wind and the sun, is compacted to give birth to lines that, in summer, would be crazy attempt. Specific techniques are used to progress, but in the end, as in summer, the summit is reached.
