Hey all. This is a calling to hill walkers in the southwest. I’m looking for a partner to do fortnightly trips with so that I can begin to log quality mountain days for my Mountain Leader Training. Could go as far a field as the Brecon Becons, Snowdonia, the Peak District etc. 

Each hike would be a minimum of 5 hours and must be keen for all weather! 

If anyone has any tips or websites to check out to help me through the logging/training.

Cheers! Elliot

Does the Peak district qualify for QMDs?

Some assessors allow the odd day in the Peak district has long as its ie poor visibility and showing skills of navigation.

If you're ever heading to Snowdonia let me know pal.

Although winter is approaching, these days won't count as QMD's for Summer ML but will for Winter

I'm based in York, if you find yourself heading to the Lakes let me know. Could manage North Wales with enough notice.

P.s. Who ever you do your training with will like to see Scotland and Lake District included in your log. The lack of Scotland was picked up in my training feedback.

Reckon Kinder and Bleaklow do, especially if you navigate the Old Pennine Way route. It can be proper grim up there despite its altitude compared to other areas. Take it for granted at your peril.
