HI - been climbing on and off for the past 30 years, got reasonable and kind of stayed that way. Prefer big mountains and long routes to e-ridiculous in quarries - respect that, just have no desire to do it. Climbed in the States, Alps, Nepal and UK. Used to be a teacher, but now I'm doing as much freelance OP work as possible. Always up for going out and away in to the mountains...oh, and 'boatman'... well I live on one!

Location

Best Climbing Experience
