In 2006, Oliver, along with Ian Parnell, climbed a new Grade VIII on the Sioux Wall of Ben Nevis. Earlier that year, he was part of a Scottish Team that climbed a new direttissima up New Zealand’s “Matterhorn”. These two routes are part of a mission to pioneer a new route on every one of the seven continents.
This lecture covers the whole adventure; from his bizarre action-packed temporary jobs such as road testing 200mph super-bikes to raiding bins with dirt-bagging climbing vagabonds in Chamonix. Combine this with his award winning photography and you have an evening of inspirational entertainment.
NOTE: As with all social evenings where there is no business meeting, a short general meeting will preceed the talk to enable new members to be nomintated, and any items of interest to be notified.
