Mountain walkers take safety courses
Hillwalkers and climbers have been advised to gather as much information as possible on weather and avalanche forecasts when planning trips.
Jon Jones, head of mountaineering at the Glenmore Lodge national outdoor training centre, said the forecasts should be checked on the day too.
His advice comes amid "full on" Scottish winter conditions in the hills and mountain in recent weeks.
More wintry weather has been forecast for Saturday.
