Paul Tattersall - Mountain running
A mountain running photo shoot with professional mountain guide and climber Paul Tattersall in Torridon, Scotland.
Paul Tattersall is a renowned climber, mountain guide and outdoor safety expert who lives just outside Gairloch in the North-West Highlands of Scotland. The first person I know to have completed a double traverse of the highly technical Black Cuillin Ridge on the Isle of Skye, Paul has also ran all the Torridon Munros (Scottish mountains over 3,000ft / 914.4m high) in one day, plus, when he was younger, completed all 282 Munros whilst riding or carrying a mountain bike to each summit. This photo set is of Paul running on two of Scotland’s Munros, Beinn Eighe and Liathach in Torridon. You can find out more about Paul at www.gofurtherscotland.co.uk.
