sheep Skull we found - no other Bones ?

me in my hi vis clothing  plus strobe light  plus torch plus a tracker and walkie talkie,

note from dad: a full set of emergency kit is carried by Jake  -  a bivi bag, foil blanket, food,water ,whistle,
he understands how to use this equipment we take his safety very seriously,
Jake has a great deal of experience on this terrain and has been trained to cover this in the dark, sleet and snow,ice , fog ,this environment has many micro climates - we came across still air which dipped to - 6 through to wind of 30 mph  combined with  -2 to -4 gives a very low feel like  factor in less than 150 metres.


this environment is tough what Jake make appear easy is not unless you are equipped  and experienced,

route was undertaken at night , conditions poor - very high wind factor in parts ,
very cold,
