The North ridge of the #zinalrothorn was so good that Anna and I had to take a 2nd lap. Massive congratulations to Anna, holding her nerve in pretty windy and cold conditions! So good to be climbing together again. @brit_mt_guides @dmm_wales @mounta
The North ridge of the Zinalrothorn completely lived up to expectations. A long ridge of high quality rock, with some fantastic towers to cross and traverse around. The sunrise views of the Dent Blanche, Ober Gabelhorn and Matterhorn were also partic
So flipping good to be back guiding in the Alps. So far it looks like all the usual mountain suspects are still here, despite Corona. Great little warm up on the Hohlaubgrat of the Allalinhorn and great to be out in the mountains with Waldemar again.
A great session on the #Orme yesterday, smashing some mileage in preparation for a trip to the #Salbitschen in a couple of weeks. I feel blessed to have made my passion my work, which means that inspite of needing to train on a lack of sleep, having
A Grand day out in the slate quarries a few days ago. This 5 pitch link up is really varied and makes for a fun adventure. Many similar adventures exist here waiting to be enjoyed. @brit_mt_guides @dmm_wales #snowdonia #climbing_pictures_of_instag
The slate quarries of Llanberis provide such a unique playground for adventure. A place where it literally feels like work was cut short and time has stood still. Sunday was a particularly atmospheric day here and Ruth found the adventure hit she was
So good to be back in my happy place yesterday, climbing in a t shirt with the sun dancing over the sea and the sound of the waves. 😁🌞 #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #northwales #ifmga @bellisaholloway @dmm_wales
Some of the best summer days climbing in North Wales end with a swim, sometimes on hot days they even involve more than one. We found the incredible Castell cwdwm to be too hot for the main events and after an HVS decided to sought solitude on higher
A great angle of @johnorrguiding and myself on the Great Corner last week. Thanks to Callum for the pic. @dmm_wales @mountainequipment @climbersshop @brit_mt_guides #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #rockclimbing #sunshine
Climbing at "the local crag", felt great this last few days. It had all the buzz and atmosphere of the Grand Grotta Kalymnos,, just with an extra dose of Jurassic adventure! #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #climbing #whereami?
I really wish this hadn't been the last day out skiing this season, but I count myself as very lucky that I'm so gutted I can't work this next 6 weeks! Thanks to Sarah, Andy and Mary for a great few days and a spectacular last day. Here's to hoping w
Corona climbing in the Vallee de L'Arve. It's sad to think that work is probably over for the season, BUT the sun was still shining today and rock felt good! Thanks to @johnmccuneguide and @willsimclimber for getting me pumped out of my mind. Thinkin

When you ski though deep powder the whole way down the #valleyblanche and see no one else... You know you've had a special run! Thanks to a great team for a great day. @brit_mt_guides @arcteryx @mountainequipment #pow #skiing #Chamonix #ifmga
Fair well Georgia, until next year! @brit_mt_guides @mountainequipment @dmm_wales #georgia #skitouring #ifmga
I'm really going to miss ski touring through villages full of farm animals! I will be back next year if you'd like to experience this amazing place: www.johncrookguiding.com @brit_mt_guides @dmm_wales #pow #ifmga #svaneti #georgia
Some of the best powder we've ever skied was enjoyed today, above the most unique place I've ever ski toured. Once again our 4 legged friends accompanied us throughout our ski tour! Ps, I mention 4000m peaks in one of the film's, but mean 5000m. I w
