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!

Summits & Skills 4000m (Instructional Course)

Thanks for organising an excellent week. The course format, accommodation and set up was perfect. The guide was outstanding and gave us a full week of constructive tuition. I was able to put his training into practice the following week when I met up with a friend and did the Cosmiques Arrete.

Classic AlpinISM (Instructional Course)

Just a quick word of thanks for the course last week. Our guide Tom was excellent and covered a lot of miles to ensure we got the best conditions and great routes in and was always ready with a word or two of advice when needed - please pass my thanks on to him
