The Dalesway volume two

Anything you can do we can do too!



Getting ready to continue the exploration in the wilderness.


Working with little help from staff is a great way of gaining confidence in the wild place where you may find yourself and for gaining confidence in your self and the group that you are working with.

The camping proved to be be little problem to the group, they were all organised and ready to work hard in setting up an organised area and get the cooking under way.

Not to be bettered by the boys, the girls also went down to the river side to see what was there to interest them.
But not before getting in touch with themselves and the beautiful peace and tranquility around them.

The last day, they all succeeded in braving the wilderness and learning to understand themselves just that little bit more. When asked if it was worthwhile their response was unanimous:
"It was not just a good trip, but an educational one and when can we do it again?"
The trip had all the elements of what John Muir is about, self sufficiency, working towards achievement, learning, and fun.
