Devil's Burdens - Important Notice

Unread post by Frank McLaren »

Wayymark Ventures are supplying First Aid and Safety cover at this year’s event. The staff from Wayymark are qualified Mountain Leaders and are vastly experienced in the outdoor environment. They advise as follows.

“Full body waterproof cover means waterproof jacket and trousers. A foil blanket, bothy bag or shelter are designed to augment the protection given by the waterproof body cover. Not to replace it. Foil blankets etc do not warm you up. You need to produce your own heat for them to retain and are not suitable for walking in should you pick up a minor injury and have to walk back.
The current forecast is for strong winds, gusting about 50mph with a real feel temperature on the tops probably below freezing. “
