**Tony** · 04-11-2010, 11:27

We've had a great response to the Expeds and Courses arranged through bushcraft uk and you've asked for more so here's some of what's coming up

Canoe Expedition in Scotland or Sweden - Sept/Oct 2011

Bushman tracking and Bushcraft week, Namibia - Nov 2011

Advanced Arctic course - Feb/March 2012

Lightweight travel and Bushcraft, Hardangavidda, Norway (high level of fitness needed for this one) - July/Aug 2012

Jungle Expedition, Borneo - September 2012

We'll get more information up in the near future, this gives you an idea of what we've worked on and schedules

Tony , with regards to the
•Advanced Arctic course - Feb/March 2012

Is doing the 'basic' course a required stipulation? Or can Someone pitch up and do this without the previous course???

I was hoping to do the basic in 2012 too, just couldn't afford it this year, hope that is still on or they allow newbies on the advanced.

**Graham_S** · 17-12-2010, 08:29

Nambia looks good.
Due to my current location, I'm not really up for messing about in the arctic...

Wayland , I've fired off an e-mail for clarification on this topic. I'll post here once I get a reply.

**Shewie** · 18-12-2010, 09:47

Canoeing in Sweden or trekking in Norway sounds very tempting.

**Chris the Cat** · 19-12-2010, 09:07

Advanced Arctic !? Yes please!!
My best, and happy Xmas!
Chris.

**whitey3192** · 19-12-2010, 13:37

For anyone else interested in Arctic Fun ( Basic of Advanced in 2012 ) I've received an answer back to my query.

"Hi Becky, with regards to the

.Advanced Arctic course - Feb/March 2012

Is doing the 'basic' course a required stipulation? Or can Someone
pitch up and do this without the previous course??? So in short is it a
pre-requistive to have done the other course??

Many Thanks

TeeDee"

"Hi Teedee

Many thanks for your email. No its not a requirement. They will be running
back to back though so people can do both. You will get a discount if you
sign up for both. Cost is still to be confirmed

Kind regards
Rebecca"

So it seems that they are catering for students who wish to do JUST the basic, Students who wish to do JUST the Advanced and Students who wish to do BOTH.

But I do read the reply as the Basic course IS required for entrance onto the Advanced. ( Anyone else read it that way? )

**TeeDee** · 20-12-2010, 15:14

Just had another reply.

"Hi Tee Dee

Sorry if I have confused you. You can do either course without doing the
other. So yes. You can do the advanced without having done the basic.

Regards
Rebecca"

So there you have it.

**tedw** · 20-12-2010, 17:26

Just wanted to register my potential interest in all of these - including the doubled-up Arctic courses.

Cheers,

Ted W

**Wayland** · 20-12-2010, 17:39

Hmmm... Back to back Arctic courses....

Sounds like I'd better start saving...

**Chris the Cat** · 20-12-2010, 19:49

Make it happen fellas!
Last years trip was one of the hi lights of my outdoor life !
Plus it would be nice to meet you.
Chris.

**wolf man** · 22-12-2010, 10:14

After last years Arctic trip, I'd be interessetd in doing the 'Advanced' one next year.
You planning on going on it Chris?

**Chris the Cat** · 22-12-2010, 15:55

I really hope so Wolfy!
Would be nice to see you again fella.
Happy xmas.
Chris.

**TeeDee** · 28-12-2010, 19:47

Can we get some details ( when possible , no rush, it is after 2012! ) for the differences between the instruction of the Basic Arctic Course and The Advanced Arctic Course?

Many Thanks.

...That would be very usefull ! I think I read that there would be a higher fitness level required ? Maybe more snow trecking and setting up camp rather than returning to
'base', as it were ! I realy fancy this, the basic was fantastic, a step up from that would be a great adventure and challenge!
Chris.

**Kayaker Kev** · 29-12-2010, 22:52

Hi there,

The canoe exped sounds interesting, could you let me know more infomation about either this Exped or previous Expeds.

Thanks

Kev

I am very interested in the 2012 arctic expedition (basic course - not the advanced one) and will have 2 others possibly also. Let me know when we can pay the deposit and sign up - it would be great to have as much notice as possible on this.

keep me in the loop - i will try to keep my eye on the new threads!
thanks,
SkiBoysWife

**wolf man** · 04-01-2011, 12:08

Do we have dates for the Advanced Arctic course for next year yet????

I can only attend if it's during the February half term (12th - 19th Feb 2012)

**Twodogs** · 11-01-2011, 08:15

It will be interesting to see what you have planed for this one "Lightweight travel and Bushcraft, Hardangavidda, Norway "

fantastic place well worth a visit ..
Twodogs

**Wayland** · 11-01-2011, 10:08

I'd be very interested in dates and details for both Arctic courses next year.

I have bookings starting to come in for 2012 and once I take a booking I will honour it.

If I know the dates I can start to ring-fence them so that I definitely have the time free. It would be nice to make sure we have a good take up next year.

I'm sure I'm not the only person that has to start planning things like this sooner rather than later.

**knifefan** · 12-01-2011, 23:58

Namibia please - sunshine v -20 Deg, no contest !!!!!

**Steve - look at the view** · 06-02-2011, 00:59

**TeeDee** · 09-02-2011, 19:50
