We have been offered a limited number of places on the Initial Mountaineering Course run by Hertfordshire Scouts at their mountaineering centre at Lochearnhead in Perthshire. This is for scouts who will be aged 13+ at Easter and Young Leaders.

We have up to 2 places for the week 5 – 13 April 2013 and up to 4 places for the week 12-20 April.

The content of the course will cover planning/safety, navigation and wild country camping.  Snow permitting we will practise the use of ice axes too.

Anyone that wants to take part should contact Graham as soon as possible.
