Another amazing hike with Stuart and his plus one, amazing Beinn! (He is a perfect hot water bottle in the shape of a puppy). It’s always the off beaten track and you know you are in safe hands (or paws)

My 4th winter mountaneering trip with Stuart climbing Scafell pike. Another excellent organised trip off the beaten track. Fantastic routes, knowledge sharing and FUN in the mountains. If you are looking for a winter mountain experience, you are in very safe competent hands with Citi Mountaneering.
