Scotland the best: Skimo

Written by Fiona Outdoors October 28 2014 —

Have you heard of Skimo? To give it its Sunday name, Skimo is ski mountaineering racing. And Skimo Scotland is a big name in the sport in this country.

494315885_640Last season, Morrocco Media (one of my trusted work partners) set about creating a short video of the 2013/14 highlights. The video shows how stunning the Scottish mountains are in the winter and the amazing possibilities for the sport of skimo.

You can check out Skimo Scotland. Note that the owner, Di Gilbert, is away to climb some massive mountain in Nepal for four weeks from November 7 but will be back in action in December when the Scottish snow will (hopefully) arrive.
