How it all started
From past experiences exploring the Lakes and being introduced to the skills needed to be safe in mountainous environments, to moving to the national park to be closer to the mountains, fell walking and rock climbing quickly became my passion.
After many years gaining experience in these environments, I now have the opportunity to pass on skills and knowledge to new entrants to the outdoors.
