Rescue Skills.
A one day introduction to Foundation Skills in rescue for you, your partner and boat when paddling in sheltered environments. Aimed at primarily the Individual, Tandem and Family paddler venturing onto the water for the first time. This course is not a UKCC FSRT course.
A couple of weeks ago I took a small group of staff from school across to the Lakes with the intention of a bit of expeditioning. They were all beginners to Open Boating, but a few of them have done some World Challenge expeds in the Greater Ranges, Africa and South America.
After a good feed at the Sun Inn, Pooley Bridge we departed the NW shore for a night paddle to our campsite.
The loose plan for the next two days was to focus around Food, Coaching and Journeying.
Now where are we and where are we going?
On the whole conditions were calm and dry, excepting one v. v. heavy shower - good excuse to get the tarp up and the kettle on!
