PEAK MOUNTAINEERING ESSENTIAL CLIMBING AND NAVIGATION SKILLS COURSES

Following the success of our Essential Skills Courses over the last 4 years, we are running them again in Spring 2014.

The courses make ideal Christmas presents and we can also supply a voucher if required.

All the courses run in the Peak District and for 2014 we've kept the price the same as this year at only £40 per person per day.

We've also scheduled the climbing courses on consecutive days so participants can do both in a weekend - making it only £80 for 2 full days instruction.


ESSENTIAL OUTDOOR CLIMBING SKILLS COURSE

A one day course covering key belay building skills, setting up top and bottom rope systems, gear placement and safe practice issues on outdoor crags.

The course covers many skills needed by indoor climbers looking to move outside but please note that lead climbing will not be covered on this course. All specialist equipment can be provided.

Course dates: Saturday 12/04/14 and Saturday 24/05/14

ESSENTIAL RESCUE SKILLS COURSE

A one day course covering a variety of problem solving strategies for situations commonly encountered on outdoor crags such as how to escape the system, accompanied abseils, ascending ropes, lowering and simple hoists.

This is a condensed version of our 2 day course and won't cover some of the more complicated scenarios - but it will still give you a 'toolbox' of strategies in case the unexpected happens. All specialist equipment can be provided.

Course dates: Sunday 13/04/14 and Sunday 25/05/14

Both courses are suitable for climbers with some experience who can tie in, belay and understand basic ropework skills.

ESSENTIAL NAVIGATION SKILLS

This one day course will cover a wide range of key navigation skills and will be based on the National Navigation Award Scheme bronze level syllabus (more details on the content can be found in the navigation courses section of our website).

Course dates: Saturday 27/04/14
