When the Wind Blows!

An amazingly clear, but cold day yesterday, saw groups out in the gorges and along the sea cliffs of North Wales. It was great to see the groups fully immersed in the activities from the offset.

Tyrolean Traverses- not for the fain hearted.

The wind certainly picked up on the second day, its amazing how cold it can suddenly turn. Luckily, the groups chose to explore some the amazing local mines to stay out of the freezing wind, whilst others kept the heat up by orienteering around the woods and then paddling and playing in canoes on the beautiful Padarn Lake. It's been a really cold day, but the groups have all managed o pull through, working as teams to make sure that they stayed warm!
