Week 9 - The First Week back in January
Mixed weather in the first week after Christmas gave the students a break from outside climbing allowing them to focus on navigation training. The students began the week working in pairs and built up to the personal challenge of solo navigation across Dartmoor.
The group also had their first experience of an indoor climbing wall.
