Two people who were members of the outdoor community died recently, and somehow have left a deeper hole in me than seems possible. In future I will try to keep up on this and publish something, nothing too personal, just a polite death notice. We are all freightened of death, but dying while doing your sport might be an appropriate way to go, as happened to the two individuals in question. The mountains are dangerous and our lives are precarious, and none of us can escape death. But, and for me it is a ...

On Rats Stole my Toothbrush E5/6, Mucklehouse Wall I wrote this on the way home from our trip to Orkney, having had a great time. The final days were mostly spent gathering some really cool footage for our film about the Longhope route which we’ll prepare for the autumn. Ed Drummond revisiting St John’s Head. Photo Lukasz Warzecha For the last few days we also had a nice visit from Ed Drummond who stayed with us and walked back in to St John’s head to see his route again, 41 years after his original

Lauren in her boot Things I learned from Saturday's Top Rope/Lead Competition at PRG. 1. Tammy Opalka from Practical Climbing is a rock star. She ended up placing second in the Advanced Women's division. Tammy and I formally met for the first time on Saturday. I reviewed her fun chalk bags a few posts back but we hadn't actually met before. Tammy and some of the women she climbs with seem to have taken a page right out of ChicksClimbing as they are outdoor female climbers who seem to climb primarily with

Way back in September I told you about Samuel Gardner and his "All-In Trek." It was around then that Samuel first announced his plans to hike the North Country Trail, Appalachian Trail, Continental Divide Trail and Pacific Crest Trail, all back-to-back. On January 1st of this year, he set out to do just that, and now, a month and a half in, he's started to receive a great deal of attention for his efforts. If successful, Gardner will cover more than 12,500 miles (20,117km) on his adventure. He began his

Disruption of finger flexor pulleys in rock climbers: prevalence, diagnosis and strategies for rehabilitation. NB: This article was formerly in the articles section of my old website. It was really popular so I’ve reposted it here. Background The sport of rock climbing has developed into a mainstream, competitive sport with considerable popularity.

Proclamation, Font 7c+ (Photo taken in the old irish tradition of lonely Hebridean first ascents; by self-timer, moments after the actual ascent). I had the pleasure of taking the Calmac ferry to Harris today for a week of discovering new places to climb, on foot and tomorrow, by boat. After tea in Hotel Hebrides (much recommended) new cafe in Tarbert, I had two hours to climb some rocks. Niggling in my mind since my last two trips to Harris was a wee boulder problem on Clisham that had eluded me on both

So you say you want to go to the South Pole huh? Wondering what it's really like out there on the ice for days at a time? Then you're going to enjoy this video, which comes to us courtesy of Eric Larsen and his Save The Poles Team who recently made the journey for themselves. In the video, you'll get a real idea of what the Antarctic landscapes are all about (hint: white, barren, and featureless!) and you have a better appreciation for what these explorers go through to realize their dreams of standing at
