Mountain Leader

I’ve spent the last 30 years wild camping in the UK and France so after completing the 214 Wainwrights in the Lake District, it was time to become a Mountain Leader. I did this in 2018.

Why not come on your first wild camp with me? You’ll get a series of emails teaching you everything you need to know to be fully prepared followed by a Zoom call to discuss the gear you have got together. You can even try out some OookWorks shelter, nest or whatever you like – you’ll probably want to take it home with you!

I also run workshops in expedition survival and mountain navigation.

Wild Camping Gear

I also make ultralight wild camping gear. The OookMid tarp tent, WeeNest and accessories help make up my Sub4k Pack. See how I can help you lighten the load and go – Further, Faster, For Longer.

I want to make wild camping a more accessible past-time.
