Throwback to National Whitewater Centre
18 November 2024
Throwback to a trip to the National Whitewater Centre. James LOVED cafe wave. Watching kayakers and rafters was an unexpected highlight for him! I had a magnificent time on the Lower T, after the Upper made me feel a bit delicate and out of practice. Thanks to Tavi, Fran and Ewen for making us so […]
Memorable trip to south Wales with the Caving Crew
27 October 2024
Throwback to a memorable trip to south wales with The Caving Crew – @thecavingcrew – where we visited Craig Y Ffynnon. One of the problems of incredible stalactites and stalagmites is that they're often Very Difficult to get good photos of. It's not impossible. It's just very equipment and effort-heavy.

A weekend at the Treweryn
4 February 2021
Spending a weekend at the Treweryn, probably my favourite semi natural river in the UK, felt like a jarring break from Covid times. Despite having had no practice for at least 6 months, I handled the upper fine and survived a successful boat chase (RIP Tavi's broken paddle). Suddenly so many people I knew were […]
A lovely walk along Worms Head on Gower
11 December 2020
Throwback to a lovely walk along the Worm's Head on Gower with Tavi earlier this summer. All through lockdown 1.0 I'd been saying to myself that when the restrictions allowed, I'd go for a road trip to visit lots of of far away friends. As lockdown lifted, I did that and it was nice to […]

Sendy Seal! Super fun day seeing the Stanley Embankment wave for the first time, but we realised a group were already playing and surfing on it, so we went and explores a blind adit next to the Aberglaslyn gorge. Originally posted on this post on Instagram
Watching people learn on Climbing Clan Wales trips
11 December 2019
One of the best things about the September Climbing Clan weekend trip to Wales was watching people levelling up their outdoor climbing. There were first outdoor climbs, there were confidence boosting trad climbs and some people even climbed trad for the first time. A great weekend with the Clan in one of my favourite parts […]

Throwback to warm summer wild swimming in Llyn Ogwen with Jess. Right now it's hard to imagine a warm Welsh lake, but back in July, it was much more manageable than expected! ''Where do you swim in summer? Originally posted on Instagram
