York Dale's Vols: Assessment D1

4 of the Yorkshire Dale's Vols Team are on their final assessment this weekend in beautiful Grassington.
So we started with a coffee and agreed to leave worries, anxiety and stress in the cafe bin before we headed out on a wander led by each of them on turn. 
And what a day we had. Grassington was heaving, but we stayed within the scope of their qualification (paths visible on map and ground, within 3km of road, no serious terrain).... And had a blast, didn't see a soul. We concentrated, laughed and learnt. I'm a very relaxed assessor tonight, I know they've got this so long as they do the same tomorrow.

In the main blip you can see them looking longingly to towards the promised land of Lancashire (you can take the boy out of Manchester.... But it'll never leave his heart...)
In the extra - path visible on the ground, hmmmm, certainly a path less travelled...
