点评:I had planned on taking our sons to the Lakes to progress their mountaineering skills and I had spoken to people who seemed surprised or reluctant to help with children and then came across Iain.
We arranged two days with him, one day of navigation skills and another of climbing and abseiling.
The navigation skills day was brilliant and both the boys (and me) left knowing pretty much everything about how to use a map and compass and with a lot of confidence as well.
The next day was a more adrenaline based and we went to a great rock climbing location where Iain setup two ropes so the boys had two different routes that could be climbed.
Afterwards we went to a quarry where a big abseil was setup and we all had a go at doing that.
Although we were working at height, everything was meticulously setup with safety and professionalism clearly demonstrated and shown.
The encouragement and support to help everyone get through the challenges was great and everyone felt that they had achieved something and pushed their skills further forwards.
If you want to try something new and exciting or simply brush up on existing skills, then get in touch with him.
You definitely won't regret it!!
A little bit from Arthur and Walter:
Iain was really helpful and taught us some really useful skills for us to use in the wild.
It was super fun and we all really enjoyed every bit of it.
Thankyou Iain!
Best of luck from Arthur and Walter
翻译:我原本计划带儿子们去湖区提升登山技能,之前也和一些人聊过,他们似乎不太愿意或惊讶地带着孩子来,直到我遇到了伊恩。
我们和他安排了两天的课程,一天学习导航技巧,另一天学习攀岩和绳降。
导航技巧课非常棒,两个孩子(还有我)几乎掌握了地图和指南针的所有使用方法,而且信心倍增。
第二天我们选择了更刺激的课程,去了一处绝佳的攀岩地点。伊恩架设了两条绳子,这样孩子们就可以选择两条不同的攀岩路线。
之后我们去了采石场,那里设置了一个大型绳降点,我们都尝试了一下。
虽然是在高空作业,但所有设施都设置得非常细致,安全措施和专业操作都得到了清晰的演示和指导。
大家互相鼓励、互相支持,克服重重挑战,这种感觉非常棒。每个人都觉得自己有所收获,技能也得到了提升。
如果你想尝试一些新鲜刺激的事情,或者只是想巩固一下现有技能,那就联系他吧。
你绝对不会后悔的!
以下是亚瑟和沃尔特的一些感想:
伊恩非常乐于助人,教了我们一些在野外非常实用的技能。
整个过程超级有趣,我们都非常享受。
谢谢你,伊恩!
亚瑟和沃尔特祝你好运!
