Marie Uri comes at climbing from such a totally different perspective to myself that this was by far one of the most interesting & thought-provoking conversations Iāve ever had about the sport.

In her work as a coach & climbing instructor, Rachael Crewesmith helps people overcome their fears every day.
We sat down for the #MountainPeople podcast to discuss the different ways she guides new climbers in overcoming their mental barriersā”ļø rab.equipment/uk/podcast

When it comes to the mental side of climbing, who better to speak to than the man who wrote the book on the subject?
I chat to climbing legend Jerry Moffatt about the mental training that made him one of the best climbers on the planet.

It will never not be rewarding to see the podcast connecting with people and opening up new ideas about our lives in the mountains.

The new series of the #MountainPeople Podcast has landed.
In episode one I chat to Prof Lew Hardy (expert in elite performance) about good mountain decision-making & why some people have an easier time handling risk.

Growing up in Barnsley a career in Rugby was more likely than climbing. But I took the road less travelled. Relishing bringing both these worlds together giving keynote speech to @RugbyLeagueWorldCup 21 team tomorrow #KeynoteSpeaker #RugbyLeague #Rugby #EventSpeakers

25 years ago. The late Brendan Murphy finding the way, day 5, #Changabang, north face 1st ascent, Indian Himalaya.
No radios, no bolts, no fixed ropes, no sherpas.
Probably the closest you can get to space exploration āout thereā commitment as a climber.

Pete and Joe's ascent of Changabang was a huge inspiration to me and is part of what drew me to my own, pivotal experiences on that mountain.
To see their route repeated all these years later inspires a similar awe. Huge congrats to Kim, Matt & Daniel! alpineteam.co.nz/2022/west-fā¦

Really enjoyed this piece from @IWelsted which, in a few short paragraphs, conveys so much wisdom about setting achievable goals and what success looks like in the mountains.
Sometimes slow and steady can actually mean faster progression! climbing.com/skills/how-to-cā¦

35 years ago I set off on my very first Himalayan expedition.
In actual fact, for me, this was the first of 3 expeditions back-to-back, without returning home.
In for a penny, in for a pound!

On the first trip, myself and John Stevenson made the first ascent of Tupopdan on the Pakistan-China boarder, approaching from the Hunza valley.
Great memories!

Joe Simpson (@TouchingTheVoid) is pictured in this photo taken at basecamp.
Sadly this trip was too early for Joe and his injuries from 'Touching the Void' were causing him so much pain.
He gave it a damn good go though, as did most of the team.

I've been captivated by Anna Pfaff's incredibly open detailing of her experience with frostbite. Like so many climbing stories, it started with a positive; an ascent. But her telling has not shied away from the negatives. instagram.com/p/CdHXzHhNlC-/

Anna draws the conclusion that even when we do everything right, things can still go wrong. It's a hard truth that we all need to recognise when we head into the mountains.
Best wishes for a speedy and strong recovery Anna!

'Best Plan' vs 'Ideal Plan' and the importance of listening. A quick(ish) thread! š§µš
One of the biggest single factors I've found for a safe and successful mountain climb is having a team who are all 100% committed to the objective. 1/10

What you donāt want half-way up a mountain is someone saying āI never wanted to climb by this route, I think this plan is seriously flawedā. 9/10

Perhaps the most crucial component is listening. Only when you have heard individuals' āideal plansā can you realise the ābest planā for the group.
What do you think? What are your experiences of crafting a 'best plan' with a group? /End
