Welcome to Ultimate Climbing.

The Vertical World that we climbers inhabit is the ultimate teacher. We learn to push our limits, undertake extreme risk and reward – all for the thrill of the send. But climbing also teaches humility, mental fortitude and inner strength. For me, the lessons learnt on a sketchy flake, metres above your last piece (that you think will hold) not only make us better climbers; but better humans too.

This site explores all aspects of rock climbing – from training (physical & mental) and technique to the things I learn as I wander about in this ultimate of places; the vertical world.
