Wow,Greigsy,that looks stunning. Do you gents live in the area so can just take advantage of the weather when it comes right ?

thats looks superb-i have just got some touring gear-not as lightweight as yours looks but still will get me where i want to go

fingers crossed for some snow like that!!

do you know all those folks youre with or do you come from a club? not so experienced with touring so dont fancy going out just with my 2 mates who are equally inexperienced...

cheers

i know the three guys i went out with in the video but everyone else just happened to be out because it was such a good day. if your just starting out i would recomend you nip into mountain spirit in aviemore and talk to them about heading out. they run guided trips with g2 and are on the mountain pretty much every day so its a good place to start on general info about areas to head for good snow and also if you need to rent any extra gear, probes transcievers etc.
