Back up to the Tees

On a very cold Sunday in February Fiona and myself ventured back up to Barnard Castle, this time to be lead by some aspirant coaches completing Moderate Water Endorsement training. Snow and sleet was falling as we parked up by the bridge.

A couple of excellent hours being put to work on a shoot of water just below the town and we where done. The coaches did really well and I think all of us students benefited from the time on the water - all undertaken under the watchful eye of Ken Hughes. Worth the long drive up and battling with the weather? Absolutely, yes...
