Your Story or Advice for Others

Your Best Equipment
My tiny 26 gram GSR stove. Never let me down.

Your Worst Equipment
My backpack. 3 straps snapped (having a bad fall with it didn't help!) The cover wasn't waterproof, was too small and l had sore shoulders the whole trek

Advice for Others
Test your gear and your fitness on short overnighters. Start slow and build up, don't try and double hut straight away. Take your time and enjoy

Highlight of your trip
Sitting alone at a campfire reading my book, just me and my thoughts and nature, in the quiet stillness of the night
