Working outdoors summer and winter looking after my skin is important. Keeping hydrated and moisturised keeps me on the ball. I’ve used Carmex lip balm with a 15 SPF (or higher) for ages. The very kind Carmex people were are the National Outdoor show last week. Thanks folks.

The aim of Chris Plant Mountaineering is to enable other people, whatever their age or experience to enjoy the wealth of opportunity that the hills, highlands and mountains can offer. Being in the outdoors is a privilege and I hope to see you there soon.
I have been climbing for the last 40 years. I started my mountaineering adventures with my local Scout group in Derbyshire and continued to enjoy all of the outdoor activities the scouts offered throughout my younger years.
As a teenager and young adult, I progressed to climbing, walking and bouldering in the Gritstone and limestone crags of the Peak District and Yorkshire. I had discovered my passion for all things adventure and took every opportunity to travel to the Alps in Europe, Sierra Nevada in California and the Cascade Mountains in Washington State.
Throughout my adult life I have continued to combine my love of the mountains with education; spending the majority of the last 30 years as a teacher and climber. I have led expeditions to Bolivia, Russia and the Artic amongst other places to share the benefits of being in the outdoors for both body and mind.
