Well done to
Dom Marsh and Myles Everett who passed an arduous Winter mountaineering course
over the half term break in Fort William Scotland. In deep snow and chilly
temperatures they learnt about winter safety, equipment, navigation, ice axe
skills and rope work. The
course was run by professional instructors from the Snowgoose mountain centre
and each day built on the previous day's training, culminating with the whole
group taking part in a full quality winter mountain day. Myles and Dom
are also able to use this trip and qualification towards gaining their Gold DofE award.
