Climbing the magical Aiguille Dibona
Getting very wet on Smiths Route on Bwen Nevis was memorable.
The “Biancograt”, Piz Bernina (4049m) Summit and Piz Palu in the Alps was good fun. Crest is best.
Climbing to the top of Spitzkoppe in Namibia was a good laugh and an adventure.

Anything Else We Should Know
A bit about me :-)
I started climbing at the age of 17 when I attended a rock climbing course at Plas Y Benin. This lead to a gap year spent travelling from London to Hong Kong overland on an overland climbing expedition. I lead my first climb on a new route in Iran.
This followed a 3 year BSC in outdoor and environmental education at Liverpool John Moor’s University. I have since gained a PGCE in Geography at Aberystwyth University.
I have lead fifteen expeditions abroad, including Nepal, India, Madagascar, Ecuador Peru, Morocco , Egypt. Thailand and Vietnam. Some countries have been visited multiple times. My favorite is trekking in the Indian Himalayas.
The most notable was leading a bunch of climbers for a company called “Hot Rock” from South Africa to Jordan, overland, stopping of and climbing at crags along the way.
The national mountain center Plas Y Brenin first employed me in 2011 working on multi pitch climbing courses and navigation hill skill course, mountain leader training and SPA training courses.
I have personally climbed in,Spain,Greece,Turkey,Iran, Norway, the Alps, Canada, Ecuador, Thailand, Morocco, South Africa, Peru, Egypt.
I love to travel, but I also love living and working in North Wales. I also love my regular trips climbing and mountaineering in Scotland during winter.
I have also enjoyed some long cycle touring trips, including 10 weeks through Europe, the length of the outer Hebrides and cycling the length of the River Danube.
I have a passion for adventure, and education & fun.
I have gained my International mountain leader award. Mountaineering and climbing instructor award.
Sumer and winter Mountain leader. I teach part time as a teacher of geography and outdoor education at Plas Dol Y Moch Outdoor education centre in North Wales.
The rest of the time I freelance in the outdoors.
I have a Instagram and Facebook page called Walk Scramble Climb. Have a look. Get in touch if you want an adventure. :-)
