A Few Words: I've had a love of mountains spanning over 30 years: walks & scrambles in the UK in 1970's, climbing expeditions to the European Alps & Himalayas in the 1980's, paragliding in Europe, NZ & Australia in 1990's. I got back to climbing in 2000's: took my wife up Mont Blanc on honeymoon. I went on to a few solo alpine ascents, including my 5th ascent of Mont Blanc in 2009, leading up to February 2011, when I realised a dream and made a solo ascent of Aconcagua from the Vacas/Relinquos side, also fundraising for the Hepatitis C Trust. Since then I have made some more alpine ascents, including 4 with fellow SP'er rgg. I have designs on returning to the Andes in February 2014...
