WINTER HANGING ON STILL

It's remained relatively cold for some time now and due to get even colder next couple of days, at least. We have snow showers forecast down to 600m tomorrow. I have had some late winter work for the weekend. Will Tarmachan Mountaineering be doing ice axe arrests in May? Watch this space :)
Meanwhile on the same winter theme I have just received a nice wee message from Jen & Harry-brother and sister team who came out with me on a snow hole trip back in March. Here is Jen's excellent  take on what is involved in spending a night out in the white stuff:

I don't think I'll be taking any more snow hole trips on this winter, but then again............
