Franco Cookson climbing

About Us

Join climber, Franco Cookson as he agonises in the quest for the perfect objective in a talk at The Mendip Activity Centre. Where is the boundary between the ideal hard route and the lunacy of the impossible? What does impossible even mean these days? And will any route ever be enough? Franco's quest will take him from the farthest corners of the United Kingdom to the mythically remote Mirror Wall in East Greenland. Failure is guaranteed, but will there be any success?
