Author Biography

A native Scot, Gary Latter has climbed extensively throughout Scotland for over four decades, pioneering hundreds of new routes throughout the Highlands and Islands, including major new routes and early repeats in all the major climbing areas throughout the country. He has personally visited and climbed on almost all the crags and cliffs documented, amassing an extensive collection of photographs along the way. His favourite places in Scotland are the islands and the north west - anywhere with the possibility of finding new unclimbed rock, secluded beaches, and hopefully some decent weather and nae midgies! Amongst these, Mingulay, Pabbay and the small tidal island of Erraid, off Mull, are some of the most memorable venues.
