Solo Night Nav as a Woman: How to Ease Anxieties and Feel Safe when Practising Night Navigation

Harriet Whiteley
3 years ago

Do you enjoy or endure night navigation? Hati shares how she built her confidence and discovered the freedom of going solo on the moors by night. (For more general advice on night navigation, read Chris’ blog on Top Tips for Night Navigation). I left my Hill and Moorland Leader training brimming with excitement about almost […]

Boots unearthed, axes sharpened, bags packed, trai Boots unearthed, axes sharpened, bags packed, training… well, underway… Winter is go and James and Oli are on their way North to get an early fix.

What do you get for the person who has everything? What do you get for the person who has everything?  ...big days out in the mountains, the power of learning new skills, a connection with other like-minded people... Sorry, is this starting to sound like an M&S ad? Regardless, we want to remind you that we sell gift vouchers. You can buy them for a specific course or some funds to put towards one, you can book the date or leave it to the recipient once they receive their voucher. We also email them out for you to print. Maybe don't leave it to Christmas Eve to get in touch, but you can cut it fairly fine (if that's how you like to do things). Drop us an email at info@beyondtheedge.co.uk to buy a gift voucher. #giftvoucher #getoutside #learnnewskills #climbing #walking @mtntraining @1percentftp #christmasgifts

We love a bit of gear geeking! How many of these h We love a bit of gear geeking! How many of these have you used, what are your favourites and how many can you name? 🧗‍♀️Over the weekend Alex delivered a Climbing Wall Instructor training to aspirant instructors. It's always a great opportunity to play with loads of different belay devices (and get geeky over the old ones). ⭐Now that they've finished their training, the aspirants will consolidate their skills by practising and shadowing before attending an assessment. We hope they enjoy the learning experience! Thanks (as always) to @thefoundryclimbingcentre and @awesomewalls_sheffield for hosting us! @mtntraining @ami_professionals @1percentftp #belaydevice #climbinggear #climbing #outdoorprofessional #lead #inspire #climbinginstructor #gearnerds
How was your weekend? Ours was pretty fun becaus How was your weekend? Ours was pretty fun because Chris ran an Expedition and Advanced First aid course. It's a course we're really proud of - we've put a lot of thought and effort into providing realistic (but not toooo realistic) opportunities to practice skills. The course covers more advanced first aid procedures where either extra equipment is available or you're long way from any rescue service or definitive care. It specifically covers the extra challenges brought about by high altitude. Including, but not limited to... First Aid planning and research Common expedition problems (Eg. Kathmandu quickstep) Creepy crawlies, how to avoid and what to do if… Triage and Primary & Secondary Survey Altitude Sickness & altitude drugs Pulse oximetry and PAC bags Oxygen therapy, assisted ventilation, oral and nasal airways Managing a casualty in extreme heat / cold / high altitude Advanced splinting (cervical collars, pelvic binders and traction splints) Casualty stabilisation & evacuation with advanced equipment Planning for heli / air evacuation An introduction to hostile situation management. @1percentftp @peakdistrictnationalpark #expeditionskills #firstaid #survivalskills #cpr #exped #expedition #altitudetraining #altitudefirstaid #mountainprofessionals #savealife #beprepared #rescue #firstaidcourse
Thursday throwback to February when Hati and her e Thursday throwback to February when Hati and her excellent multicoloured balaclava joined James in the Cairngorms for a quick hit of Scottish Winter. After an excellent game of desert island discs on the drive north, they joined Chris to climb Invernookie on day 1. A great route and a good lead by James, but the whole time Hati had her eye on The Seam, which looked far more like the grovelling climbing style she enjoyed. Chris had work on day 2, so James and Hati headed up The Seam and made it back for the train back to Sheffield. Most importantly, they got within kicking distance of the Cairngorms reindeer (which was probably the main aim of their trip anyway). Join us up north in the New Year for winter walking, climbing and mountaineering. #reindeersofinstagram #cairngorms #winterclimbing #iceclimbing #scottishwinterclimbing #scottishwinter #instructorsontour #holiday #winterwonderland @mtntraining @ami_professionals @1percentftp #tbt #throwback

Instructors on tour! Sub-zero temperatures are a b Instructors on tour! Sub-zero temperatures are a bit of a shock for Claire, James, Hati and Mel who have just returned from the Greek Island of Kalymnos (the Mecca of sport climbing). A week or so of tufas, snorkelling, good food, ice-cream and being hassled by goats - you can't really beat Kalymnos as a climbing destination with a proper holiday feel! And they're back just in time for the grit conditions to get really good... 📸@jcwheeldon @melongram @hatiwhi Claire Y #sportclimbing #tufaclimbing #kalymnosclimbing #rockclimbing #instructorsontour #kalymnos #goatsofinstagram @mtntraining @mt_association @ami_professionals @1percentftp
