With all outdoor activities we are affected and impacted by the weather.  We will be adaptable to the conditions and may use alternative routes to achieve the goal for your course.  An essential part of being competent in the outdoors is to be flexible and adaptable to our changing environment.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you have an adequate level of fitness to undertake any of the courses, if you are unsure, please ask.  It is also your responsibility to inform us of any medical issues or conditions you may have.  As we will be going into remote and sometimes inaccessible environments it is imperative that we are making decisions based on the needs of all group members.  

 

It is also your responsibility to make sure that you have the correct clothing, footwear, food, drinks and any other items of kit that you have been advised to bring along as part of your joining instructions unless you have asked to borrow any of these items.  You must be aware of the risks that are associated with this nature of exercise and must also acknowledge that your personal safety remains with you.
