Winter Walking Course

-

Hi folks. I was working at Plas y Brenin again today on a Winter Walking Course (well not much in the way of winter!). I had a fantastic day with a great group who were really keen to learn some navigation skills and I think we all enjoyed the day as the weather forecast was wrong up until the last hour or so on the hill when it started to rain on us. We did come across some large patches of snow but they were very wet and didn't pose much of a problem as we could avoid all of them.


We were dropped off at Gwern Gof Uchaf along the Ogwen and navigated our way up Cwm Tryfan and up on to the ridge we then followed the long ridge back to Plas y Brenin in plenty of time for tea and cakes.

In house assessments and a special guest!

I was over in Shropshire over the last few days conducting some assessments on a variety of rope activities such as high ropes courses, abseiling and climbing. During today's assessments we were visited by a very special guest and a hero of mine. "Tell 'em about the honey mummy" it was no other than the Honey Monster! 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. 😊✔
