Misty nav – a perfect weekend to deliver a nav skills course for @lake_district_mountaineering – still, dry conditions but only about 30m of visibility much of the time!Lots of solid nav skills picked up by my group, which saw us safely journey over Harrison Stickle and Pavey Ark in Langdale on Saturday, and around the high fells of Coniston on Sunday.Despite the chilly (but beautiful) conditions I kept toasty warm in my @buffalosystems jacket and had fun using a mix of maps to teach different skills (including testing the fantastic new @lasermountains map of Coniston)A great weekend in the hills with great company, thank you 🙏 ⛰️❄️ 🧭#navigation #ilovemaps #lakedistrict #langdale #coniston #amiprofessionals … See MoreSee Less

Contrasting days on the hill this week! A lovely sunny day in powder snow on Striding and Swirral Edge of Helvellyn with friends (i.e. not work).Then a fantastic day on warm(ish), almost sunny rock in Langdale where returning client Nick ticked off one of his 2025 goals of leading me up a multi-pitch route.Lots of solid gear placements, great belays, and big smiles as we brought together all the skills learnt in 2024 and put them into practice – a great start to 2025!#rockclimbing #tradclimbing #LakeDistrict #helvellyn #langdale #girlswhoclimb #femaleoutdoorinstructor #amiprofessionals … See MoreSee Less

Personal climbing highlights of 2024 – I have very few photos of me climbing, any that I do have are generally selfies of me wearing many layers whilst hanging out on a slightly miserable belay! However, I do have lots of photos of other people climbing. Here is a mega-hard quiz of 14 routes (photos #2-#15) that I was pleased to get up in 2024. Two of them I didn’t actually get up, but I’m pleased I got on them and tried. A few falls, a few routes where I was scared for a prolonged period, but all were amazing experiences and amazing climbing. Even the ones that involved wrestling a jungle.Any correct guesses of routes, or even just crags, and I will share some snacks with you on a belay. None of the photos are of me (apart from the first intro photo).And delighted to report that I will be taking many more photos in 2025 as I got a bungee for my phone for Christmas so that I can’t drop it off the crag…#rockclimbing #tradclimbing #lakedistrict #snacksinpockets #girlswhoclimb … See MoreSee Less
