The team and I were out today on Beinn an Dothaidh near Bridge of Orchy. We spent the day looking at parallel roping skills for guiding and short roping in descent.

We climbed Emel Ridge taking safe travel precautions to approximately 800 metres before descending. There is huge amounts of snow in the corrie. At 800 metres on the ridge there was areas of slab. There has been recent avalanche activity in East and Central Gully. Large cornices are present above many gully and buttress routes.
