Chance to practice emergency ropework skills on steep ground. Suitable for award holders and trainees.

WE will also discuss group management on steep ground and use of a confidence rope.

EQUIPMENT/KIT REQUIRED
Bring a rope and helmet if you have them (don't buy if you don't-we'll have a few spare to lend), gloves, long sleeved top and trousers, and wear clothes suitable for time of year and weather. Headtorch might be needed to walk out. There will be brambles and nettles around the practice area, and the wood has a deer population, so a check for ticks after is essential.
