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 I’ve ever had about the sport. Eavesdrop on our chat via the #MountainPeople podcast feed➡️ https://t.co/On5fsWVCFM

It will never not be rewarding to see the podcast connecting with people and opening up new ideas about our lives in the mountains.
A fascinating podcast, thanks @jamesthacker for sharing

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 ‘out there’ 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!

Two plus one equals four, five six or maybe even seven. Basic maths right, you can't argue with the result. Anyone who has played team sports might understand where I'm coming from. A highly functi...

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!

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. 📷 Tom Richardson

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! 📷 Tom Richardson

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!

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!

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