This has been one of those personal passion projects I love most. I reached out to Matt because I was keen to refresh my winter climbing skills, and I couldn’t have asked for a better partner and the playground - than the Cairngorms in Scotland. Cold, windy, and raw, the place definitely put all my senses on high alert. Face frozen from the constant wind gusts, yet on the final walk down, I kept turning back, already wishing for more and hoping to come back soon.
