Steep ground and navigation practise

Yesterday and today I have been out with Donnie to give him a refresher on the Summer Mountain Leader syllabus. Whilst we talked over as much as we could; our main focus was a day working on Steep ground hazards and emergency rope work and a day working on enhancing navigation techniques. 

With his assessment coming up soon Donnie like many others gained a lot from building up the confidence in existing techniques whilst looking at some other useful alternatives.
