From hillwalking in The Mournes to scrambling up Howling Ridge, trad climbing at Ailladie or bouldering in Doolin, this country has everything to offer enthusiastic climbers. I hope that my passion, experience and high quality of training will allow me to share many great days on the crags, hills and mountains with you. Please feel free to get in touch with me if you have any queryies or would like to arrange your next outdoor adventure. Brian Bateson

It was a hectic week back to work with courses and assessments. Another MS assessment in The Comeraghs for SEMRA, a CWI training in Dublin, an RCI assessment on The Burren and a 1:1 climbing session too, so it was cool to get out for dinner and pints with friends last night and have a couch day watching the olympics today. The next few weeks look a little less hectic thankfully, time to get back climbing for myself after a few weeks off the rock.

Lots of amazing days at Ailladie with friends lately.

I took a break at the start of May and headed to Sligo & Donegal with . We hiked a few mountains and some forest trails, went to amazing beaches, checked out loads of awesome cafes and did the odd touristy thing. It was all class! One of our all time favourite holidays! I dont know the northwest all that well, so we brought book with us and used it like a travel guide. So cool to be a tourist at home, get to hike in new places and get the weather for it too.

I was working in sometimes sunny Dalkey this weekend with teaching Trad climbing and helping these awesome people take their first steps to leading trad routes. The quarry was full of folk getting out too, good to see the season kicking off between the showers.

After Finland, I met up with in Oslo and we drove to Rjukan. A scenic town in a mountainous region with an amazing history and easily accessible ice climbing. Ive done very little ice climbing and had never lead a decent pitch before, so it was cool to hop on lead on easier pitches and top rope some harder pitches. We got lots of mileage in over the 3 days and it was nice to be back at the novice stage again with a new discipline of climbing. Moving above gear on trad can be scary at times, but moving above ice screws is another level. Jono mostly just built snow caves and heckled me while climbing.
