16 Nov 2008 - Winter is here

Winter has arrived!

Snow and ice conditions are now prevalent on the hills. Members attending walks should therefore bring an ice-axe and crampons with them, in case they are required. Remember that if the leader deems it
appropriate, you may not be allowed to attend a walk if you do not have at least an ice-axe, for your own safety and the safety of the party as a whole.
