Proprietor - Ian
Macfarlane (+Son)
Summer Mountain Leader (SML) , Trail Side Leader, and assessed as
being competent in Basic Bushcraft by
IOL, BASP First Aid
Trained

I am an outdoors enthusiast
who over the last 20yrs has gathered a diverse range of skills and
interests. I have found that as I have aged I have
become more and more aware of the wonders of nature. This has led
me to bushcraft . Bushcraft is a limitless subject area
with many areas of speciality making sure that a lifetime is not enough
to understand it all. It also complements my other interests
such as Canadian Canoeing, (I hope to introduce this activity at a
later date), Fly Fishing, Hill walking and Mountain Biking. My
vision is to bring people closer to nature through outdoor
pursuits and just maybe closer to themselves.

For 4
years I volunteered as a Duke of Edinburgh Award Expedition organiser
and for my last 7 yrs I have been a Scout Leader with my local group ,
54th Perthshire. I have also worked with Fairbridge (A company
working in deprived areas with Youths in the Outdoors). In
addition I have worked with a large Corporate Team Building Company and
spent 2 seasons working as a Sailing and Windsurfing Instructor .
Between all this work I gained an Honours degree in Risk Management at
the Caledonian University and resurrected and ran the Hill walking
Club.

My own expeditions have
taken me from Canadian Canoe adventures in Scotland to Ski
Mountaineering in the Alps. |
