With snow in the forecast, it’s looking to be the best of weekends in the Scottish mountains with The Mighty Coe’s Winter Sessions kicking off Saturday 2 March, with backcountry ski and splitboard sessions to join at Glencoe Mountain Resort.
This year, The Mighty Coe is supported by The North Face, who’s giving away a Verbier Gore-Tex ski jacket worth £630 to one lucky Fall Line winner. Plus, we’ve got two tickets to giveaway for the avalanche skills sessions at Glencoe, and two free tickets for the film night in Fort William.
Get involved in the mountain sessions and sign up for a stonking night of films and entertainment at The Mighty Coe.
