WORKSHOP CONTENT & LEARNING OUTCOMES

A one day advanced navigation course concentrating on contour interpretation for people wanting to develop their skills for navigating in the mountains in all weathers.

Who is the course suitable for?

This course is suitable for people who have previous experience with a map and compass and want to progress their skills further. As a guideline people should be happy with taking and following a bearing, pacing, timing, simple contour interpretation and be looking to progress onto the next level.

This course is ideal preparation for people undertaking the Summer or Winter ML, IML and MIA awards, Mountain Rescue Team members and for people who aim to navigate at a high level in all weathers.

What does the course cover?

We will refresh the key skills of mountain navigation and ensure you have a working structure to your navigation. We will then focus on contour interpretation and utilise contour only mapping (maps that only display contour lines and no other information) to help get your head around contours and map to ground visualisation skills and navigating like a jedi!

EQUIPMENT/KIT REQUIRED

We provide contour only maps, you will need your own hill kit.
