Our teachers tend to be highly experienced and technically skilled in the mountain environment, with years of additional experience coaching individuals through challenging circumstances on private development courses in in the open air. These are generally always keen to give their understanding, whether it is towards flora and fauna, location, geology, the ever changing landscape or perhaps the best spot for eating and take in, camp or locations to have your after that mountain time.

The classes are organised and delivered by David Buckett.
