Pick up the February 2013 issue of Trail magazine and you'll find several pages dedicated to staying safe in the mountains. Last winter Trail's writers Dan Aspel and Ben Weeks were sent to Scotland to learn the basics of using crampons and ice axes, as well as simply moving over snow and ice covered terrain. This video is a brief clip of their time in the Cairngorms and includes a first person perspective of an ice axe arrest. For full details of the trip along with several 'how to' guides to crampon and ice axe use, pick up the February 2013 issue of Trail magazine - on sale from Thursday 27th December.
