Mountain sports are heavily influenced by the weather and your course structure may be dictated by the current conditions. The decisions made by your instructor will be based on what you have done in the past, what you want to do now, the weather and conditions on the day. Sometimes it is the weather that dictates where you go, other times you have the full choice and you can go anywhere you want.
