Summary: Army film on the Nordic Ski Touring training offered by the British Outward Bound Centre at Gautestad in southern Norway. The film follows a group of British service personnel, taking the course as a leisure activity rather than for formal military training, as they go on a three-day expedition north from Gautestad, living in snow holes and cabins and learning how to move and survive in the mountain environment. The expedition was the culmination of a two week course intended to qualify participants for their bronze proficiency level; the Norwegian Mountain Touring Association's system of cabins is explained and details given for those interested in taking the course themselves.
