Want to be more autonomous in the outdoors?
I offer a range of skills workshops to help you take the next safe step in your adventure journey.
Intro to Navigation
In this one day course you’ll learn how to use a map and compass to understand and navigate the landscape around you. We’ll cover the basics so that you can enjoy a safe day out in the mountain environment without getting lost.
Advanced navigation
This two day course will build on your existing navigations skills. We’ll cover bearings, pacing/timings and detailed contour interpretation. We’ll also cover night navigation – a chance to do some star gazing too.
Intro to scrambling
This one day course in Snowdonia will teach you how to safely navigate scrambling terrain. We’ll cover choosing an appropriate scramble, how to navigate through the route, as well as safe and efficient movement on rocky terrain.
