Expedition Skills assessments on Exmoor for Bridgwater College Public Services students

''One of my favourite views over Porlock Bay from Bossington Hill''

''Dunkery Beacon from Dunkery gate''

 

 

Over the last two days I have been supervising groups from Bridgwater College undertaking Expeditions on Exmoor. The Level 2 and 3 Public Services students were required to carry out a 2 day walking expedition starting in Minehead and finishing at Dunkery Gate with an overnight camp at Poolbridge camp site. Over the 2 days the Level 2 students covered a prescribed 20km route while the level 3's covered 28 - 30km that they had planned themselves. 

 

The weather was generally kind to the students with the odd shower breaking up the sunny spells and most of the rain coming overnight.

 

I'm back out on Exmoor again tomorrow for 2 days with the other half of the Level 3 students completing their assessed expedition.
