Ruth Taylor and I have spent the last few days delivering a Walking Group Leader Training course, based from Edale Mountain Rescue Team's base in Hope.There are three common threads that run through the course; navigation, group management and environmental knowledge.
On Friday we visited Kinder Scout concentrating on the navigational aspects, while the sessions today had a strong emphasis on group management and the environment. There was persistent light rain for the majority of the day today in the Burbage Valley.
Despite this the weather is due to improve on Sunday and Monday with a transient ridge of high pressure moving in. This should give some good climbing and walking conditions in the Peak District..
