Sidetracked Volume Four is here

A few months ago, an exciting opportunity arose. I was invited to do a little freelance editorial work for Sidetracked – an adventure travel magazine with a focus on exploration and wild places. The stories are told through a blend of excellent writing and stunning photography. It’s just the kind of magazine I love to read – more quality and less fluff than the average outdoor publication.

A while later I was offered the position of Sub-Editor at Sidetracked, and recently we have been working hard to ready Volume Four for publication. Sidetracked publishes web content in addition to a tri-annual printed journal. This was my first issue, and it’s now ready to order.

I’ve worked on some amazing stories written by talented writers – tales of exploration and discovery set in some of the most remote, inhospitable, and exotic locations around the world. There’s a strong focus on Antarctica in this issue but it really does have something for everyone. For example, there’s an account of the Dawn Wall climb, mountain biking in Afghanistan, and running in the Namib Desert.

Working with the Sidetracked team has been a pleasure, and we’re already starting to put together the next issue. If you’re into adventure travel and exploration, I think you’ll enjoy it too. You can order copies of Volume Four here: http://www.sidetracked.com/volume-four/

Seek the mayglow while you can, for it is fleeting

May has long been one of my favourite months of the year, but it's not all about Scottish Alpine spring, as you might expect from a mountaineer based in Scotland. One of the things I have learnt about myself is that I need more from nature than mountains.

I've just finished a batch of scanning, so thought I'd pop up a photo post to follow up from this entry a couple of weeks back. In that post I spoke a bit about my approach to photo note-taking. I also shared some iPhone pictures. Today

Something I should have done years ago: ALCS (plus nebulous thoughts about writing as a lifelong vocation)

After years of telling myself 'I should really register for ALCS this year', I've finally managed to motivate myself to do it before the deadline (just). It's been an interesting exercise to see everything I've published since 2021 all in one place.
