Breast Cancer UK

A little quiet on here of late. But I haven't been Idle. Just back from Peru where I led a trip for Venture Force. This was a school trip and took in the Amazing Macchu Pichu aswell as climbing El Misti (5822m).  I had stayed on for 10 days and had planned to climb Alpamayo but instead decided to experience what it was like being held up at gunpoint.. So, I spent the next 10 days sorting out emergency travel documents :)
Since being back I worked on a Breast Cancer UK charity event guiding a team up Ben Nevis, all of which I am pleased to say summited.

Onwards and upwards;
October this year its back to South America for 16 days leading for Jagged Globe and an Ecuador Volcanoes trip. I was in Ecuador in 2004 and climbed Cotopaxi and had a go and Chimorazo  with a friend of mine, Ben (http://www.inspiringadventure.com) so it will be great to go back almost 10 years later and head back up Cotopaxi. Will also be tackling Cayambe, another of the big volcanoes.
