My kit list

  • Lumix GH5 II camera with zoom lens, front view

    Panasonic GH5

    For all my filming and photography, I use a Panasonic GH5 with a 20-70mm lens. It is a great, all-round camera that a carry with me on all my adventures.

  • White quadcopter drone with four propellers and a camera

    DJI Mini 4 Pro

    I love to get a birds-eye view when out in the mountains and my DJI drone is the perfect tool to get the footage I need. I went with the mini pro as it is small, and compact yet has an incredible camera.

  • Green and red MSR camping tent with open doorway

    MSR Hubba NX 2

    Light, sturdy and spacious, my Hubba Hubba is my go-to tent for wild camping in all weather

  • Black SealSkinz glove, back view, isolated on white background.

    All weather Seal Skin Gloves

    These are the best when it comes to keeping hands both warm and dry when out in the mountains.

  • Gray and yellow hiking boot with high ankle support, rugged sole, and laced closure, against a white background.

    Scarpa Rush TRK GTX

    These things are incredible, lightweight, comfy, waterproof. Mine have been all over the Lakes, Peaks and Snowdonia and are still going strong
