The more Walk Organisers (WO’s) we have on each trip, the more walks we’re able to do. This means more variety, smaller groups, and less waiting around for the back of your group to catch up!
Generally, WO’s volunteer and are vetted by the committee, but if you meet the following qualifications, you might be ready to organise walks on club trips:
Walked a minimum of 15 mountain days.
Been on a minimum of 3 trips with the club.
Have attended relevant navigation courses.
Have other previous experience.
Every walk has one WO and one “Second”, who is responsible for double checking the WO’s bearings. If you’ve never done any navigation before, talk to the Second or WO on your trip and they’d be happy to show you the basics of navigation.
We’ve attached an example route card below for the convenience of our WO’s. These must be filled out for every walk.
