  • Use of pulks
  • Building extreme weather camps
  • Building up your winter camp routines
  • Stoves, fuel, food & water preparation in extreme environments
  • Developing your resistance to the elements
  • Expedition ski techniques (no previous skiing experience required)

In addition to the above skills, Shaun will have completed a full three-day journey where he will have lived in expedition tents, eaten expedition food and followed routines that are the same as he will meet on the icecap or climbing
