jlury
Have been climbing approx 35 years. Climb at Low grades in summer (have led VS's when on form long ago), but my first love is scottish winter walking and easy mountaineering. Type 1 diabetes since 1981, mountains and exercise probably saved me from the worst of the disease.....Not climbing much in 2017-2020 due to health issues, but looking forward to getting back onto the rock and snow ASAP!
Location
Ilkley, West Yorkshire
Best Climbing Experience
easy winter routes in Scotland (easy mixed - one crampon on rock, the other in ice, one axe in turf and the other mittened hand jamming in a crack..... is there anything better?)
Doing the cioch with the future Mrs jlury and getting engaged on the way down.
v.diffs and epic backpacking trips with my daughters.
good times with my climbing buddies over many years....!!
