Tim is famous for his infectious enthusiasm. One of the UK’s climbing elite, Tim is as happy on rock as ice; his versatility has seen him finish within the top 10 at the 2002 World Ice Climbing Championships as well as completing a series of hard ice routes, classic Alpine routes and notorious Scottish winter routes. In 2020, Tim completed the hardest ice climb in the world – Mission to Mars WI 13 in Helmcken Falls, Canada.
In 2023 he climbed the FA of Archimedes Principal 5.14b on Anvil island then on 2024 the FA of one of the longest rock climbs in Canada – Smoke and Mirrors ED2 4500ft 5.12+ Mnt Combatant, Canada
Always with an eye on something new, Tim has put up new routes as far a field as Mongolia, Cuba, a true pioneer of DWS (Deep Water Soloing) with trips to Vietnam and Thailand as well as venues closer to home in Europe. Tim is a published author, popular international speaker, and a former wingsuit pilot.
