ML Training Module 2

-
I was working on the second module of a Mountain Leader (summer!) training course this weekend at Plas y Brenin. The Saturday was a local day talking about issues such as weather, the role of a Mountain Leader and access and the environment.

Today we wondered up Glyder Fawr (1001m!) from Pen y Pass to look at a mountain day from the perspective of a mountain leader. We looked at group management, navigation with 1:50,000 maps and route finding.

The HM was on site during a photo shoot and was trying out various activities. I also had the pleasure of assessing a distant relative of Sir George Everest today and I'm glad to say he passed his abseiling with flying colours, as did everyone else. 😊✔
