Best Climbing Experience
1) Hacking my way for 2 hours through untamed jungle to finally reach a spectacular 4 pitch, rarely repeated climb in the heart of Laos (South East Asia)

2) Ever got carried away scrambling then realising down climbing is likely get you killed?
Well that happened to me on Table Mountain in Cape Town SA. 1000m later I toped out and kissed the floor!

Only after did I read a guide stating “fool hardy and ill-prepared climbers die here every year!”
