As you can see we timed our course quite well and arrived when there was plenty of snow. It was just as well as the course could have required lots of imagination without the snow. We were lucky though, as not only did we have lots of snow, we had sunshine to go with it. The only problem was that the combination of blue sky and snow, made all the countryside look so stunning that it was tempting just to sit and stare, rather than get on with the business of survival.
We were also very lucky in that we had some wonderful accommodation for our off duty time. The log burner was a special treat as it did get very cold at night.
Learning to light the log burner and keep it burning efficiently, was one of our course lessons. It was good to be able to practise indoors, rather than outside.
More to come
Lots of love, small bears at Bears Unlimited xxx

Hi guys! I think your role model Bear Grylls might recommend bear sized snow goggles after his experiences on Everest! Perhaps you should add these to the winter kit list? But your firelighting skills look well practised!
