A little snowy steep ground

Day 2 of the Glenmore Lodge Winter ML Assessment and I was out with the other half of the team on a journey looking at how they managed various aspects of steep ground. A very cheery and relaxed bunch of candidates today.
Blowy and bright at first and a little milder later.
 Fi talking about the significance of the wind transported snow
 Leading the way up the ridge
 Still sunny
 Charlie using a stomper to get Fi over a short drop
 And abseiling down
 Fi swimming up a short steepening
 Bucket seat and body belay
 The mug on the move and the emergency shelters
 Lou taking advantage of some ice in Coire an t Sneachda
 More bucket seat antics
 Come on up!
Steve heading down
