Introducing James Thacker Mountaineering

If you're looking for mountain adventure in the UK, we're very pleased to recommend James Thacker Mountaineering.



This Sheffield-based company is run - unsurprisingly perhaps with a name like that - by James Thacker. James is a good friend of Olly Allen - they are longstanding climbing partners in the Derbyshire Peak District and beyond.

James holds the Mountain Instructor Certificate (MIC), and is qualified to instruct mountaineering including all aspects of rock climbing, winter mountaineering, snow, ice, mixed climbing and associated activities.

James is also the proud recipient of the 2008 Mark Clifford Climbing Grant for his planned first ascent of a possible new line on the left hand side of the North Face of Phari Lapcha (aka Machermo, 6017m). Click here for more information on the Mark Clifford Climbing Grant
