Best Climbing Experience
Overall some of my favourite experiences are: The North Ridge of the Piz Badile with my wife Emily, Rivière Pourpre in Morocco with Dave and Juha, climbing Western Gully in perfect conditions again with Juha, too many teenage gritstone epics to mention, climbing Magic Line in Bregalia with Aide many years ago, finally ticking Out of Africa in Madagascar with Fat Boy, a Scottish road trip with Ed, Climbing the North Face of the Eiger in Winter with Rob, a week of perfect Céuse sport climbing with Jude, making the first ascent of Spinal Crack in Wales with Steve and Ray, Onsighting Alien at Gogarth with Jim, climbing Fiesta at Riglos with Sarah - and many others. They're all brilliant in their own way!

About My Photography
I like taking panoramic photos of mountains and cliffs. My favourite photos are those showing lines and atmosphere of routes, or the emotion of a climber.
