The Climbers’ Club


 

Having rock climbed in Cornwall for over a decade, I signed up as the youngest member of the voluntary guide book team entrusted with producing the new edition of The Climbers’ Club’s popular Chair Ladder climbing guide book.

Together with the other team members, I worked in challenging vertiginous coastal environments to research, record and photograph the existing rock climbs of West Penwith, resulting in a high-quality printed guidebook aimed at promoting this beautiful climbing area.

As well as the Chair Ladder guide, I have contributed images to several other CC publications, including the Bosigran, Dartmoor and South West Climbs printed guidebooks.
