Great to meet and explore with the team @BoomCumbria - a powerhouse of energy and good vibes 🙂 Good effort ✅🌱🐀🦦 @ScotlandTBP @CumbriaUni

You think you have a big job with summer childcare, check out these guys 😂 @ArcGuiding #cairngorms #holidays #kids

Sure, dragging a 27" 16kg long-travel full susser round this loop is kinda hard work. But, hey, tyres are expensive and the descents were worth it 😂 @ArcGuiding @endura @canyon_bikes @OspreyPacks

On the one hand, I'm pleased that a large native carnivore is returning to habitats. On the other, I'm saddened that human fatality has resulted 😕 bbc.co.uk/news/world-eur… #rewilding #wildlife #bears #wildlife

I've messed with the format of these workshops over the years, but we always seem to get outdoor leaders thinking and inspired, which, I guess, is the point! 😉 #NaturePhotography #wildlife #birdphotography #birdwatching #fungi #cetaceans #climate

Ski guiding on the Northern Corries loop yesterday and it just made sense to get a little help on the final uphill😊 #expedition #skiing #adventure #cairngorms @ArcGuiding

Beautiful above-the-inversion @ArcGuiding mountain day on Monday, with great company. Wonderful to catch up with @BirdingSi - thanks for the @KowaOptics views👍

Although the skiing may be a bit rattly and short-lived at the moment, there's plenty of good learning still to be had in the #cairngorms #thinkwinter #mountaineering #skiing #climbing #offpiste @CAGuides @glenmorelodge

Working this winter has involved lots of ups and downs. Both geographical and meteorological 🤪 #Weather #meteorology #winter #scotland #mountains @ArcGuiding @the_MWIS

More wind-assisted (and hindered) ski tour leading in the Scottish backcountry today. Working for @CAGuides #Cairngorms #skitouring #mountaineering #thinkwinter
