Club trip to Skye

Tim, Martin, Anouk and Mark returned last weekend from our latest Adventure club mini-expedition, exploring the coast of the Isle of Skye.


The week started with a day trip on the stunning West coast paddling from Loch Bracadale before spending Tuesday with Gordon Brown from Skyak Adventures for a day of coaching. Congratulations to Anouk who also passed her BCU 3 Star Sea award that day!

Then a 2 day trip exploring the north east coastline, dramatic basalt cliffs, caves, stacks and arches and the tide races at Rubha Hunish, Skye's northernmost point.

The group planned the mini-expedition (organised through the Adventure Club) with shared goals and aspirations.
Tim Cass, who achieved his BCU 5 Star Sea Leader Award in May this year (and a mighty beard along the way) led the whole adventure, which in itself reached a long-term goal : )
 Tim began to Learn to Kayak with Adventurous Experiences, after experiencing a Corporate Team Building event with us, and has developed through the Adventure Club to now holding the highest level leadership award!

Good to see the folks at training yesterday, and hear about the adventure : )

Catch you on the water soon
