Been climbing for around 7 years, currently trad leading around VS, but have managed to drag myself up a few (easy end of the grade!) HVS leads too. try to get out to the peak dist. doing mostly trad, but also bouldering, sport, short route soloing as often as possible, really enjoyed the few sea-cliff climbs I've done in Devon and Dorset and on Skye,and on Lundy Island. Apart from climbing I love to get out hill walking, scrambling and camping too.
Also love cycling, on and off road and the odd sportive, A bit of photography now and then as well.
