There has been a bit of interest shown with regard to a winter overnight camp out with minimal kit. Some people may be interested, but are anxious about doing a minimal kit night out. Myself and Paul have spoken about this at some length and we have decided that we will run a short build up course for anyone who is interested. It will be 3 x one day courses.
1. Fire
2. Shelter
3. Water and food.
If you are interested, let us know. It's all free by the way.

Count me in for this guys. You could more than likely count NeilB in too!

There is pleasure in the pathless woods, There is rapture on the lonely shore, There is society where none intrudes, By the deep sea and the music in its roar; I love not man the less, but Nature more

For those of you .who may be slightly disturbed about this .. never fear its the fleece undersuit he got with his drysuit

Hi

Any idea of when these courses would be taking place ?
I take it they'd be held on a Sat/Sun ?


Cheers
