Technical Advice work in Northumberland and The Lake District.

Last week I was working down in Northumberland and The Lake District for Silverdale School. Their staff and I visited a variety of venues concentrating mainly on gorge scrambling and canyoning techniques. Linhope Beck, Ash Gill and Stoney Croft were the main events, all really enjoyable and ideal for looking at specific skills. Working in new venues is always challenging,fascinating and certainly keeps one on my toes. I head to Alnwick next week to run a coasteering skills course in another new venue I haven't worked at or coasteered on. I also ran staff training out at Tavool House Outdoor Centre on Friday, so a new season begins.
