Hi I suppose I’m an unusual person in that I am in love with the mountains but pretty fearful of heights. I’m fine on a mountain but not great with exposure.
Im pretty good with navigation and have climbed most peaks and ridges in Snowdonia and The Lake District.
Id like to expand that into the Alps. I love the Alps and want to conquer some peaks.
So my question is: Are there any good peaks to aim for which aren’t too exposed and what skill sets will I need to acquire in order to achieve it. I just don’t know what I need to know or where to gain the skills to take the next step. So far I’ve never used an ice axe or ropes outdoors..
Any advice greatly appreciated.
