Thoughts from the outdoors

Wondering what you need to know for winter? What you should be carrying in your pack? The Met Office has put together this little video presented by TV forecaster Sian Lloyd - you can tell she an outdoors sort of gurl because she's wearing a fleece...

Anyway, enough cynicism. Not a bad introduction, if a little basic. For a really comprehensive set of winter skills info, we'd suggest taking a look at the BMC's excellent Winter Essentials DVD and to keep up with the latest in winter condtions, have a look at our Monday Tip covering Winter Conditions Resources, including, naturally enough, the Met Office's very own Mountain Forecast.
