Big fan of blizzard bags, little foil blankets are rubbish on the hills save them for the finishing line. That and a group shelter another brilliant bit of kit, so versatile for lunch stops, morale boosters, you can keep an eye on the group and it makes treating a casualty in bad weather so much easier. Good vid.
It is this one mapdec.com/products/shelter although they always seem to be out of deck. Another good one is www.summitgear.co.uk/product/supalite-bothy-bag-6-8-person/ it is worth noting they are both lightweight as I only use them in emergencies rather than for lunch stops on a regular basis.
Great video Sandy. I'm fully prepped for our assessment this Monday!

Thanks. Yup blizzard bag and group shelter are a must for me, working and playing.
Again, really helpful and is a good refresher for those heading for the ML assessment. Enjoying these little videos. Thank you. :-)
Thanks
Great video, thanks. You always pick up tips from the contents of someone else's bag. What shelter do you have? Much more compact than mine!
