Heya

I'm looking for a cheap ML Training in October time!

Any ideas??

I've looked at http://www.snowdonia-adventures.co.uk/skillscourses/mountain-leader-trainin...
Any one done a course with them? They are only £325 including all food and accom!

I'm looking in Northern Snowdonia (Ogwen/Capel Curig/Betws/)! Cheaper would obviously be better! And i'm not too bothered about accom because I can get my own for free.

Who is good? I did my SPA with Andy Newton in Llanberris and he was ace!

In reply to Katie86: I know the guy who runs Snowdonia- Adventures. Hes a top bloke, posts on here sometimes. It will be a good course, well run and at a good price

Hi,

Another option is to sign-up/volunteer for an org. I did/do that for Duke of Edinburgh and have gained my SML (Incl a 1-day nav deferment) without paying a penny myself. The only commitment is I help take out expeditions.

In reply to Katie86: well, I'm not saying you should just take the course without asking around first, but for what it's worth, I think it's hard to find a bad ML course these days. 99% of the time you can count on the trainers being great people, great trainers and the course being v good quality.
