Steve Monks

IFMGA British Mountain Guide

A well known international climber, Steve has climbed and explored all over the world.

For many years he has spent the summer season in the Alps followed by another summer based in Australia, where he is renowned locally for pioneering climbs in some of that country's wildest places - climbs such as the incredible 'Totem Pole' sea stack in Tasmania. Notable Alpine achievements include early ascents of the Supercouloir on Mt Blanc du Tacul and 'Gulliver's Travels' on the Grand Capucin, as well as a solo ascent of the Eiger North face. He still climbs to an extremely high standard on both rock and ice - when climbing with him you can't fail to learn a lot and his boundless enthusiasm is sure to rub off!

Learned loads and acclimatised well during the course. Its obviously been very carefully planned. Guiding and Instruction was excellent. Anders was fantastic throughout and made the whole course really good fun. A very professional instructor with a great sense of humour. Highly recommended.

Thank for an amazing couple of weeks! Matt and Stu were fantastic. I learned so much but also had a lot of fun. I have come home feeling like a proper mountaineer, having made some great new friends and with some unforgettable memories. I plan to come back next year!
