WORKSHOP CONTENT & LEARNING OUTCOMES 

Night navigation evening. A chance to brush up on skills prior to assessment or relearn old ones. Or even just enjoy a night on the hill. 

Night and poor visibility navigation is one of the many vital skills we need to keep ourselves and our groups safe on the hills. This evening will be a great opportunity to have a fun evening with likeminded people whilst enhancing your skillset.

We will meet in the car park and then split into small groups.

In turn, each person within the group will be given a contour point to navigate to. The contour point will be chosen by other members of the group.

We will then return to the car park by 22:00

Prerequisites

• Pacing
• Half/Rough bearing
• Bearing
• Timing

WORKSHOP PROVIDER CREDENTIALS

This is a peer led event so each participant is responsible for themselves and decisions made on the hill.

CANCELLATION PROCEDURE

I will endeavour to inform all participants as soon as possible if this event needs to be cancelled, however every effort will be made to ensure it goes ahead.

Places are limited so please do let us know if you can no longer make it once booked. This ensures someone else can use the opportunity

We look forward to seeing you there!
