Scottish avalanche warning service's season starts

Climbers are warned!! AVALANCHE

 

With the heavy snow due later today and the snow sports season getting under way.  An avalanche warning service covering five mountain areas has started its latest season. The Sportscotland Avalanche Information Service (SAIS) posts reports and forecasts online. It provides assessments for North Cairngorms, South Cairngorms, Lochaber, Creag Meagaidh and Glencoe.  In January, three people lost their lives in one of Scotland's most serious avalanche incidents, which happened on Buachaille Etive Mor at Glencoe. Brothers John Murphy, 63, from Portrush and Eamonn Murphy, 61, from Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland, along with Brian Murray, 46, of Monifieth in Angus, died. The three killed were members of the An Teallach Mountaineering Club and among nine people caught by the avalanche. The SAIS is run from Glenmore Lodge, near Aviemore. The incident was one of 112 avalanches recorded by the SAIS last winter.
