In this episode of my Mountain Days Vlog series I climb Bidean nam Bian, the highest mountain in Glen Coe with my skis on my back, in the hope of skiing down via Paradise - the NE Face of the mountain.
March is one of my favourite months in Scotland, with longer days, more stable weather and snow it is a great time to be in the mountains - even if they don't appear to have lots of snow on them from the valley. With a stable snowpack all I need is for the recent warmer temperatures to have given me a forgiving surface to ski - rather than the firm neve that I found two days previously on Ben Nevis.
This is no Nikolai Schirmer style ski descent, it's all a little more gentle but nonetheless a beautiful way to travel the mountains in spring.
Climbing and mountaineering are activities with a danger of personal injury or death. Participants in these activities should be aware of and accept these risks and be responsible for their own actions.
