  • The Winter Warrior
    Feb 13 2025
    Anna Wells needs no introduction in the outdoor adventure world. Last year she shot into the limelight for being only the fourth person (and the first woman) to complete a round of all of Scotland’s munros in winter. Not only that but she matched the fastest time set by Martin Moran who completed the challenge in 1984/85 in an outrageously nippy 83 days. To match this feat Anna had to ‘move fast and light.’ She ran and snow shoed 282 munros between the 22nd of December 2023 and March 13th 2024.

    Previously well known on the international climbing circuit (including a fastest time on the Cuillin Ridge) Anna had to master the dark arts of winter mountaineering before setting out. Anna pioneered her own style of flexible route finding and tackled the hills with guile, peak fitness and an indomitable spirit. I caught up with her to delve into the details of her planning and approach as well as to try and find out just what draws her to the mountains.

    Since completing the round Anna hasn’t stopped for breath. Her social media pages are filled with daring adventures in the snow that include paraglide skiing. She is writing her book ‘Winter Munro Round’ and still finds time to study data science as well as run her guiding company ‘Rocks and Trails.’

  • Homecoming for the Brew Brothers
    Dec 18 2024
    Ever since setting up Wasted Degrees in their family garage in 2016 brothers Jack and Conall Low have pioneered diversity in craft ale in Scotland. Apart from a few trusted regulars no two of their brews are the same and they use a diverse range of locally sourced ingredients such as Scottish grown wet hops and pine needles in their ales. They are super excited about moving their business from Blair Atholl into a purpose built brewery and taproom in their home town of Pitlochry in Spring 2026. I caught up with Jack to chat about this homecoming and their innovative approach to craft ale.

  • Mindfulness in the mountains
    Nov 15 2024
    In 2019 Anna Danby decided to give up a secure job in education in Edinburgh to move with her partner and daughter into the Highlands and start a new career as a mountain guide. She went on to set up Wild Roots Guiding which offers a fresh mix of mountain skills together with multi-day camping journeys that include wild yoga and life coaching. I was curious to ask Anna why she took such a bold leap into the unknown and to find out how her mountain adventures in the Scottish Highlands can help change lives for the better.
