“Last night’s camp! An hour before I was due to leave, my brain was giving me all the reasons not to go, but I pushed them to one side and had a great night. Also slept well, which was a bonus.”

“Fantastic day and great for my mental health after a tough few weeks. Tough climb (Beinn a’Chrulaiste, Glen Coe) but a good achievement and better than fighting to get out of bed. Thanks for your kind support guys, and I hope the vitamin D will be beneficial to us all.” DAVID ROGERS
“I managed to get away for a trip to the Lakes today. Some good climbs, views of a snowcapped Helvellyn and gorgeous sunshine. Much needed, in fact more than I realised. It truly is good for the soul. Managed to bag six Wainwrights too!”

“Stunning (and cold) sunrise hike at the weekend... absolutely worth the 4am alarm!” CATHERINE BLACKBURN
“One of the best parts of living in a van is parking up somewhere at night not knowing what you might see when you open the door in the morning. It’s easy to think that the world is messed up sometimes, but if you get outside you soon remember the natural world is absolutely perfect. We humans are the messy ones.” HOLLIE IVY
