Based in the Lake District, Will can’t wait to be back in the Cuillin this summer. “My first experience was in 2018, kicking off with an ill informed solo traverse with no idea of where I was going, but a love affair with these unique mountains began. The challenges they throw up mean there’s never a bad day out.”
Away from Skye, Will has been climbing for nearly 30 years, extensively in the UK and all around the world. More recently Will started fell running, enjoying the freedom to complete a mountain day in a couple of hours, he is out in the hills at every opportunity.
