This afternoon I arrived on a very sunny Dartmoor with my 3 Outdoor Students from Bridgwater and Taunton College for a weeks residential. After letting the student loose in Lidl and having unpacked, we headed out onto the moor just in front of the bunkhouse for some compass work in preparation for our day on the hill tomorrow.

This week I have been on Dartmoor directing a course on behalf of   Wet and High Adventures Ltd for some Bridgwater College apprentices in conjunction with Action Based Training.  6 instructors, 36 students, rain, sun, climbing ,biking and a mini expedition filled the week. The course is still running for the rest of this week and next but I have come home ready for another Wet and High Adventures Trip departing tomorrow.

Last day working in North Wales for Wet and High Adventures in partnership with Action Based Training . Today the clients had an early start and navigated themselves on the hills around Bala. The Trangias came out for some breakfast and then it was back down to the cafe for coffee, cake and debriefs. A great week in all and we avoided the worst of the weather.

Back out working for Wet and High Adventures and Action Based Training today in the Aran range just above Bala. The day was based around decision making and leadership using navigation as the vehicle to create certain scenarios. Some rain and hail but great views in between the clouds including a large rainbow.

Today I was out on Holyhead working for Wet and High Adventures with Simon delivering a Coasteering Session for the Action Based Training clients. What a great day with Sun, swell and the sea not being too cold

Today I was working for Wet and High Adventures in conjunction with Action Based Training at Crogen Estate in North Wales. Today we met the 8 clients and introduced them to some team based challenges and prepared them for the week ahead.
