Tour de L’Argentine
This is basically a route in the new CAS guide for Jura-Fribourg-Vaud, the guide has it as a “T4″ which is supposed to be fairly serious.

Plas y Brenin Mountain Leader Training (II)
Another day on the Mountain Leader training course at Plas y Brenin, the objective today was to try some ropework in the context of the Mountain Leader role. This is a bit odd for climbers and mountaineers though, you’re always inclined to use more kit like a few slings or carabiners and not... Read more...

Plas Y Brenin - Mountain Leader Training
I’m in Wales at a Mountain leader training session at Plas y Brenin the national mountain centre. So far we’ve had some wild weather which suits the course although we were pretty much blown away on Glyder Fach yesterday. Today some sunnier weather made running river crossing protocols a bit...
