About Us

  

Woody

 
Woody first started climbing at the age of 12 and by 19 had soloed his first E6 rock climb! Many Lakeland first ascents followed, as did some notable firsts in winter and some credible winter alpine ascents.
Woody has been in the outdoor retail trade for as long as we can remember and is as passionate about outdoor gear as he is about his beloved Fireblade.

In his spare time Dom likes to do his charity work, making sure all the Ambleside public houses stay in business
