What a great story of the Indian Supreme Court making the best decision. Hope this young man does well, I'm sure he'll work hard.
Cracking start to my winter working season. ❄️🌞

“…In the same way that hope is not an effective risk management strategy, knowing about heuristics won’t help you avoid falling foul of them either.” But reflection might…? https://t.co/9KsRXfa8Xd @Brit_Mt_Guides@the_AMI
Did you miss our Access & Conservation Officer, Davie Black, on @BBC Lunchtime Live last week, talking about the Shepherd's Rig windfarm decision reversal? Listen again here (approx. 80 minutes into the show) https://t.co/51HULWeUgN
An interesting peice of research into the non-technical skills needed by Mountain guides (and can therfore probably be extrapolated to other guides, instructors and leaders of adventure sports and activities)

The climber from tonight’s incident was happy we share the image of their damaged helmet. If ever you needed a reminder to wear one on technical ground or climbing, here it is.
Potentially a tragic outcome prevented. ⛑️
Due to last minute cancellation, we have two reduced price places spare on an ML Assessment next week, based in Lagganlia (Cairngorms). 3-7 July
