I had a great day out with John, wlking from Seathwaite up to the foot of Great End and learning 'winter skills'. The conditions weren't ideal (though not far off!), but John was a great instructor, responding to our needs/wants and managing to find suitable areas for us to learn and practice our skills. I cetainly achievd my aims (learning how to move safely on the snowy fells, using crampons and wielding an ice axe.) I piced 'The Lake District Waker' partly because they loan the necessary kit - so I could try winter hiking before I invest in crampons and axe. It was all great and I really ejoyed the whole day. Many thanks.
