Mountain Leader Summer Refresher

Overview

On this course, which compliments the Mountain Training syllabus, we’ll get you ready for your assessment on this two-day Mountain Leader refresher. You’ll be able to cover anything you want to brush up on. The focus is usually on Navigation, steep ground leadership, environment and ropework but every course is different! We will chat with you about what you’ve done so far and what you need to work on.  Then we’ll come up with a plan to make the most of the two days.

The Objectives

• You’ll leave with a clearer idea of what you need to do before assessment.
• You’ll gain experience under the guidance of our highly experienced instructors, who have years of experience on the Mountain Leader course.
• You’ll have two practical days of learning, tailored to you.

What to Expect

You’re in control of the itinerary to ensure we cover the areas you need for assessment, but we normally focus on navigation, steep ground leadership, environment and ropework.

Experience Required

You have completed your Mountain Leader Training and be working through your action plan towards assessment.

How Should I Prepare?

It’s best if you have a practice of your skills beforehand and read any notes you may have made during your training.

Note: Our instructors will assess any safety equipment you bring with you. If they consider it to be below the required standard, you will be asked to use equipment provided free of charge by Plas y Brenin.
