We have had a lot of wet students in

single layer tents!!

Single layer tents (where the base is attached

to the outer skin) should be avoided as

anywhere that the tent is touched from the

inside loses its water resistance.

We have had a lot of under equipped

students with very small rucksacks!!

Even though it looks like a hiking rucksack,

it doesn’t hold 60 litres so there is not enough

space to share out the group equipment

fairly.

We have had a lot of wet footed students wearing the wrong footwear!!

Trainers, converse or basket ball shoes are not appropriate for the walking required in D of E.

They do not give the support or water resistance needed for muddy uneven terrain.
