Really good day out on Monday, I thought you chose a great route, both up and down!
….Look forward to seeing you in the Alps in September.
Thanks again for a great day out; loved every minute and your guiding was top notch! Looking forward to Skye but will get some training in first!
Cheers!
We had a great day doing Skew Gill and Cust’s Gully yesterday. Had to do some belaying to get over an awkward pitch so that was great to put into practice what we learnt last summer with you and Owain.
Robin,
Thanks again for a great training on Saturday! Really appreciate your input and patience with us as a mixed ability group, but you were fantastic! All the best
Hello Robin,
I wanted to thank you for a fabulous day in Borrowdale last week.
Peter and I had a great time. It’s been a while since I have done any rock climbing and the route you selected was just perfect. I think if it had been any harder, I might have been in trouble. But it was just the right grade, easy enough to give me confidence but hard enough to make me think and sufficient exposure to make the heart race.
And it was nice to catch up….
Best wishes and I hope we can do some more together next time we are in the Lakes.
I’ve had a look through the photos and am still in awe of those trips; it hardly seems real now I’m back to lush green Somerset!
Thank you again for a wonderful week. All expectations where achieved! The poor weather the first few days causing us to change our plans really did help us to have a far more interesting time I feel. As a result we had more time to extend the range of activities, climbing more peaks rather than simply walking between huts. We all learnt a great deal. We also enjoyed the social evenings in the huts!
Please contact me should the Lakes get snow this winter, or when, and we will endeavour to come up and spend a day with you.
Thanks again for all the work you put in on our behalf. Hope you are having another good week. We had a good flight home after spending a day in Innsbruck, which was most enjoyable. Thanks for the lift! The train journey was fun, but the walk back to the hotel was further than we thought 10k!
Hi Robin, came back off Denali this week. Weather very sketchy this year. 6 major storm systems and summit was -58 to -66 C for our window. Quite a way colder than K2 and Everest at the time. Team got up to high camp but weather meant we stopped short of summmit. Challenging conditions- multiple rescues by rangers of teams with HACE/ frost bite who fancied their chances. Luckily we descended in one go and got the last flight off the glacier. Still no flights operating nearly a week later.
Just to say a huge thanks for the training last month. Out of 7 team members, I was one of only two who didn’t fall into a crevasse. Each resolved through a bit of muscle power verses group system. No injuries. My sled fell down cracks at various points on the way. Our training gave me the confidence to handle it without a problem. I practiced what you taught me and nailed the fixed lines and running belay….
Many memorable moments: helped rescue Norwegian team with HAPE, navigating crevassed slope in whitehout, big slab avalanche just near us. Incredible….
Thanks again, and hope to climb with you in future (keen to get into a bit of ice climbing next).
Graeme
A big thanks to @robinbeadleguide. If you are looking for a guide he is your man! Couldn’t praise his services enough.
Thanks again for leading our day in the Lakes. This trip has lit a fire within us and we can’t wait to do some more bouldering and get out of London for some more walking/climbing.
