How Should I Prepare?

Assessment routes are commonly 30km + with up to 1000m of climbing, navigation will be in both forest and open mountain side, so it’s well worth getting out in the hills and forests to be well prepared for the assessment. You will also need to ensure you have returned your home paper to PyB at least one week prior to the start of your assessment.
