Great day hiking, learning map skills and how to use a compass properly. We spent the whole day with Jim in the Yorkshire Dales and it was amazing learning all the detail on the map that we have never used before. Jim has a lot of experience in this area and taught us so much that will make our hikes more fun and safer. We’ve been out a few hill walks since then and have really used all the skills we learnt in that day. Thoroughly recommend this course 👌

Great experience were my lessons with Jim. I really enjoy spending time with Jim he doesn’t only teach you map reading, but lots of other key pointers whilst out on the hill. He really tailored the lesson to the assessment I was preparing for, which I am extremely grateful for. My map reading has came on a long way since my lessons with Jim. I look forward to doing more lessons including night navigation with him.

I had a very productive time with Jim on a damp misty autumn day learning basic map and compass skills. The information provided before the day was very helpful as are the laminated flip cards supplied afterwards as an aide memoir.
I would highly recommend..

We really enjoyed the navigation course with Jim. It was a step by step guide so not overloaded with too much info at once. Had a great few hours and met some other like-minded people. Would definitely recommend
