CKT Staff go open boating (4 star training)
It all started on Wednesday night with us loading the van and cars up after finishing work. Then the convoy was off to North Wales
Day one
we all had a early start of the day with us all heading of to picking up the canoes and then it was of to Bala Lake. It was a windy morning which was perfect for the day events of Sailing and Navigation. We started the morning of by looking at different ideas on how to paddle against the wind, with some working better then others it was time for lunch.
In the afternoon we then found a nice spot to do poling then followed some sailing.
Day 2
In the morning we had to get every thing from the camp-site packed away and meet Phil at 9 so it was yet again a early start but this time we managed to fit in breakfast.
The second day was the white water day on the training and the location was the Dee.
We all got a chance to lead the group down different section of the river, Dan had bad luck as at the start of the section he was about to lead his lucky paddle snapped.
After some much needed lunch we had a play on some waves then headed down river.
After a second great day of paddling it was time to head back to Leamington.
Just want to thank Phil for running the trip
Cheers
Alex
