Dear Rob
Many thanks for the Navigation Weekend
I learned a lot and had some necessary practice.
Thank you for your patience and enthusiasm.
I would recommend the course highly.
All the best, Gwen - Oct 08
Hi Rob,
A quick note to thank you for a truly great weekend. It was really enjoyable, and being able to put my navigation techniques to the test in such amazing scenery was a real bonus.
I saw your photos in the gallery - Sally looks a lot more at home in exposed positions than I ever will!
I've uploaded my best photos to a picasa album here.
All the best, and I hope your scrambling course goes well this week.

Hi Rob,
Just a quick note to say 'thanks for the brill w/e in Snowdonia on the Hill Skills course. I always think learning should be fun and enjoyable to be truly effective and you certainly achieved that on the course!
Many thanks for the NNAS certificate, which I received at the end of last week; I look forward to putting it all into practice again in the very near future. I certainly intend to sign up for the Intro to Scrambling Course at some point, but as I'm off to work in Milan for 6-9 months very soon, I'm not sure when I will be able to do so. Still, I'm looking forward to some trekking in the Dolomites and maybe even do a couple of via ferratas as a warm up in the meantime.
Thanks again and best wishes for the future,
Regards Keith - April 08
Hi Rob - Thanks for the photos, we had a really excellent time and wish we were doing it all again this weekend. Howevere we are looking forward to trying out our new navigation skills in the Lakes tomorrow and Sunday! Thanks again,

Hi Rob
I’ve only just got a chance to email you to thank you for a fantastic weekend in Snowdonia. It was good to learn from you and to have some company in the hills with like minded people. Although I think my tendency to drift off into a world of my own will be hard to overcome!
A very nice friend has actually bought me membership of the BMC and registration on the Mountain Leader scheme. So it looks like I’m doing the Mountain Leader training, which means more lovely weekends in Snowdonia and hopefully Scotland!!!
Anyway hope to see you again.
Take care

Hi Rob - Just wanted to let you
know that we are not in fact still wandering around, scratching our heads,
in Snowdonia so you must have done a good job. We had a lovely day and
almost didn't get wet. The ascent was interesting to navigate and beautiful,
we'll do something more difficult next time. Thanks for a fun and very
useful weekend. Regards, Joanna - Hill Skills July 2007
"Just a quick note to than you for your time and expertise in teaching me this weekend, I feel that I have gained a lot of valuable skills that I shall be reflecting upon in time to come...I look forward to booking futures courses with you." Tony - Oct 04
"Just a quick mail to say thanks for the
ace time I had on the Hill Skills course back in October. A long time to
get a response I know, but I have only just dryed out!
Since then I have had fun getting my family lost, and boring everyone at
work with my contouring technique around the desktops! It has inspired me
to get out on the hills a lot more, in fact I'll be back in Snowdonia this
coming weekend trying out the Glyders! Who knows, this year maybe a
scrambling course? Hope the business is thriving - onwards and
upwards!"
