2 Star Assessment

Posted by andreas on 08/09/2009

Saturday saw a 2 Star assessment with 4 people from the Inverness. We first covered all aspects of open canoeing and to finish it all off we did rescues. All the skills were there apart from some of those cross bow strokes which are, I have to admit, very difficult and take a lot of body rotation and coordination.


Mud? What Mud?

After consulting the weather forecast it seemed to be driest over in the northwest. So Isi and I went over to Torridon to do some mountain biking and the Torridon Loop seemed as good as anything. Arriving at the Beinn Eigh car park masses of midges persuaded us to skip any faffing and hop on the bikes as soon as we could.
