Climbing outdoors is also a big interest of Luke’s, whether it's sport climbing, multipitch/ trad climbing, bouldering, scrambling and even ice climbing. He spends most of his time in North Wales frequently on adventures having recently climbed the classic route ‘Grooved Arete’ on the East Face of Tryfan. He has his sights set on climbing a Ben Moon classic ‘Statement of Youth’ 8a soon and also climbing his way up the grades in bouldering. |
