Mountaineering Scotland Weather Skills Courses are delivered in association with MWIS, exclusively for our members. The workshops are perfect for members interested in expanding their knowledge of mountain weather and how this relates to making the most of your adventures in the mountains.
They are classroom based and include teaching tutorials, group discussion, the chance to pose your difficult weather questions to our experts, plus you can have a go at making a mountain forecast from synoptic charts!

The Winter Weather Skills course focuses on winter weather in the Scottish mountains. Some prior knowledge is helpful, for example having attended the MWIS weather course aimed at all levels (see above). There will be some overlap with what is taught on the other course, but lots of unique content too, and you will get a lot out of attending both.
