Navigation & Hill Skills Course




Today I was joined by Ken, Ric, Ian, Matt, Alan and Joe for a 2 day navigation and hill skills course. We were assisted by Jim who is on my mentor scheme. There is snow down to the road throughout the Park and so we headed into Cwmffynnon and stayed low where the snow was just unconsolidated powder and so we didn't need to worry about axes and crampons - this being a summer skills course! We looked at micro navigation techniques and had some lovely views across Snowdon. It would have been great conditions for a winter skills course!
