FIELD EQUIPMENT
FIELD EQUIPMENT
Field training - ensure an element of use of clothing etc properly is included. Building a shelter and travel is only a small component of what we require for safe operations in the field.
Field staging was very awkward and difficult -I understand Ant NZ is addressing this but it needs restating that this is a top priority.
Field equipment and food. Different groups have different requirements - better liaising with groups prior to deployment would help ensure this is better adapted to different groups.
