    The Buffalo Field Blanket

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/188746601958 With the current ebay discount coupon (BALANCESEPT) you can buy one in black from forces kit direct on eBay for £108. But it's the last one in stock.

    Interesting. Looks like the sort of thing that could work well when dogsbodying. Ben Fogle has just become an ambassador for Mountain Rescue England & Wales. Hoping he brings in a discount for MR members.

    I haven't read the whole thread so don't know if it's been established yet but I'm pretty sure this is a wind up, the only source I can find is from FLN News, a spoof news outlet.

    Your picture of the day...

    A couple of Rheas at Dan yr Ogof showcaves today. Not overly impressed with the photos I got of them, but they wouldn't stay still and it had just started to rain heavily. Olympus E-M5 ii & 45mm f/1.8

    New (old) US flying mittens

    Yeah strange, I guess the thumb and palm isn't a 'back'? I gave them a clean yesterday, it definitely has a leather smell at least.

    How can you tell (I'm not very good at telling) it does smell like leather and the underside is suede like

    New (old) US flying mittens

    I wanted a pair of these last winter but never got around to buying some. Found some at a good price that appear to be unused. Anyway just thought I'd share some photos. The normal sized glove is for size perspective.

    The Black Mountain

    Yes that's the one! Oh that's interesting, as you can see on Google it's shaped like a horseshoe which peaked my interest. Will have to have a look next time.

    Actually, you might be able to answer a question for me. I was looking over OS maps when I came across a square outline to the North East of Castell y Geifr so I had a look on Google satellite view. I'm guessing a hut circle or something?

    Interesting, I am mostly self taught but have considered taking a course. I have 2 sessions of navigation with MR over the next couple of weeks and I'll be assessed on in towards the end of the year.
