Summer Mountaincraft
Mountain Navigation
An intensive training course focusing on route finding and navigation. Navigation can be as complicated or uncomplicated as you like it, but when things start getting rough an easy to remember uncomplicated system of map/contour interpretation, taking a bearing and calculating speed, time and distance is essential.
An ideal refresher course for a Summer ML candidate prior to assessment or for the all season walker or
mountaineer.
Explore the big Scottish hills in summer safely. This course will cover route planning/finding and navigation, relocating yourself, river crossings, access and kit. Both 3 & 5 day courses will ascend munros on the West coast with an optional camp/bivvi on the 5 day course giving us access to the remoter hills. A confidence boosting course which will enable you to get out there and enjoy the hills on your own. A reasonable level of fitness would be required to get the most out of the course.
