Essential Survival12 Jul 2008 - £180Lanbedr, South Wales 'Survival Experience' ** one of a kind**19 Jul 2008 - £350Are you ready for this challenging four day survival course? You will put your new survival skills into practice in our unique exercise phase, finding yourself in an emergency scenario which only you and your fellow delegates can get out of. The course will follow a format of 2 days instruction, then 2 days practical. The Nice Bit. The instructional phase takes place in a private wood near the village of Talybont on Usk. Wildlife is abundant and we may have the opportunity to observe the resident Badgers as they hunt and play. There is ample diversity here to allow all of the survival skills to be taught and practised, and best of all - there are full facilities - Yes - Hot Showers the lot! This is where we return to after the exercise phase to make ourselves human again. The Tough Bit. The 2 day exercise phase will involve a lot of walking, and not much in the way of food or shelter. Rain, Sun, Midges, Mud and not much sleep is probably what you will get (sounds like Glastonbury). THIS IS REALITY, and it will only last for 2 days. Afterwards you'll have an insight into yourself that you could never get from the sofa! Think of all those treats you'll deserve. But remember - only download the pdf or phone if you think you can cope with 4 days 'in the field'. We'll be looking after you, of course, but it may still feel a bit tough (especially if the weather is wet). You need to be physically fit. By invitation, successful delegates will have the opportunity to attend advanced expeditions being planned for 2009 And it's worth saying again - this is the only one in 2008 summer months. **Highly recomended** Essential Survival02 Aug 2008 - £180Lanbedr, South Wales SLEEPWALKER NIGHT RACE20 Sep 2008 - £18.00**POSTPONED** The famous Sleepwalker Night Race! 20 miles at night through from Talybont on Usk, through the heart of the Brecon Beacons.
