  • Equipment Notes Are a Comprehensive Guide Which Covers All Our Summer Trips, from Three-Day Treks to Twelve- Day High Alpine Courses
    Due to the nature of the mountain environment, equipment and clothing must be suitable for its intended purpose. It must be light, remain effective when wet or iced, and dry easily. These notes will help you make informed choices. Bring along the mandatory clothing, wet weather gear and any equipment you already own that is on the equipment checklist. This gives you an opportunity to practice with your gear and equipment so that you become efficient at using it out in the field. These equipment notes are a comprehensive guide which covers all our Summer trips, from three-day treks to twelve- day high alpine courses. Please look over your equipment checklist to see what is required and refer only to the sections that are pertinent to your trip. Adventure Consultants can offer clients good pricing on a range of clothing and equipment. Please feel free to contact us if you would like any advice on specific products or if you would like to special order any clothing or equipment for your upcoming trip. BODY WEAR Waterproof Shell Jacket Bring a non-insulated, fully waterproof shell jacket with water-resistant zip closures and a good hood capable of fitting over a helmet. The jacket should be easy to move in with your base and mid layers on underneath, and provide a good overlap with your pants, but should not be so long that it restricts access to your harness. Chest pockets are useful to things like snacks and sunscreen during the day. Pit zips allow for increased ventilation and cooling.

SUMMER SUMMITS elcome to Summit 26 which this time focuses on mountain travel, summer rock and getting Wout in the great outdoors. For me, like many climbers and walkers, the day the clocks change is a notable date in the annual calendar. All of a sudden the winter blues start to fade away, the daffodils come into bloom, the evenings lengthen, optimism returns, plans start to become reality – it’s summertime and it's time to head for the hills! The spring and summer months are indeed a wonderful time in the climbing year-book. This year, the clocks went forward over the Easter weekend and for some of us, the sun even shone. Honeypot areas such as Snowdonia, the Lakes, the Yorkshire Dales and other National Parks were heaving with visitors: Portland, Pembroke and Gogarth bus- tled - people were out there doing it and the countryside was well and truly back in business. Personally, I had an unusually quiet Easter. Unlike many others who headed for Scotland, the Alps, Fontainebleau or Sardinia, I stayed at home, recharged my batteries, ate good food, drank Abso- lution and made plans for the year. A couple of long walks took me up and around the Kinder plateau, following in the footsteps of the Kinder trespassers on one occasion and scoping out some new lines on another.

  • 83 SUMMIT AUTUMN.Indd
    CLIMBING LIFE LIVING THE DREAM? Climb now; work later is DMM’s famous motto. But what happens when a sticker slogan becomes your career plan? Sarah Stirling talks to seven sponsored stars to discover the graft behind the glamour. limbing’s bohemian forefathers were young at a particularly boring time: after World War II had crushed the life out of everyone, but before the 60s started swinging. Before this, climbing was something mountaineers who had earned their beards did for training; now an adventurous few developed it into a way of life. In that hedonistic epoch before the apple of commercialism had been bitten, most climbers knew each other, and tribes of them began coagulating around crags. It was inevitable the tantalising question would spark: Chow can we do this all the time, and never have to work? In the beginning, the answer was simple: live rough, live now. As Gwen Moffat wrote: “I was a typical product of the war: impressionable and frustrated.” Then she meets a Greek god in bell-bottoms, hard and golden at the foot of Cadair Idris, who opens up “a free and splendid world of mountain climbing”, populated by “supermen and lovely, casual girls subject to no ordinary rules.” Meanwhile the Golden Age of Yosemite is beautifully depicted in the film Valley Uprising, in which Yvon Chouinard describes buying damaged cat food tins for the climbers living rough at Camp Four to eat: “None of us expected to ever have a job. We were going to be hobos basically. And we were going to climb forever and that was the extent of it.” Human nature meant things wouldn’t stay simple, of course, and that Yosemite era ended with the Peter Pans wanting to grow up.

  • Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Phd in the University of Hull
    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL Hybrid climbing bodies: the climbing assemblage and the technologically mediated engagements and ascensions of rock climbers being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of PhD in the University of Hull by Paul Richard Barratt BA (Hons) September 2010 i Abstract This thesis contributes an Actor Network Theory inspired approach to the study of rock climbing to argue that climbers are more-than-human fusions comprised of the human and non-human. The research explores this notion of hybrid climbers, which I term the ‘hybrid climbing assemblage’. The complicated relationships between these human and technological co-agents of climbing are durable but dynamic, although technological developments aid climbers, the benefits of these fusions cannot be reduced to physical, technical and mental elements. Rather, each piece of technology worn or carried by the climber has its own situated set of relations which are interwoven into the complex socio-technical assemblage that co-constitutes the present day climber. Empirical data to support this study has been collected via participant observation, and interviews with 40 rock climbers based in northern England. Although some of these voices debate the roles of these technologies and their experiential impacts upon climbing, these developments are not necessarily damaging to the experience. Indeed, climbers are careful to retain the ‘desirable’ and ‘essential’ experiential aspects of the activity – notably the risk and uncertainty climbing entails. Finally, the thesis also adds to debates concerning the materially mediated experience of places, and how places are also involved in the development of socio-technical assemblages and their practices. In these ways this research aims to help us rethink our activities as implicitly mediated by technology.
