I am a Male Walker, in my late 60s, based near Clitheroe

My Message: Hi,
My name's Michael, I'm in my mid sixties, six feet tall and I'm looking for a female companion to share my interests which include photography,gardening, reading, antique shops and exploring our beautiful countryside.
I'm fit and active and still working in a job I enjoy which involves being outside all year round.
I own my own detached home in the beautiful Ribble valley, I'm solvent, single with no children or baggage.
I'm honest, considerate and caring with a good sense of humour, ( you need one of those with my job!! ). I have nice manners and morals and am very respectful
I have a two year old border collie whose going to be trained as a Search and Rescue dog.

It would be lovely to find a lady with the same outlook in life with whom I can talk to and enjoy companiable silences.
I have always enjoyed being in the hills and mountains and spent 15 years as a member of a busy mountain rescue team, so I've a good idea of what im doing out there!!
Ive travelled fairly extensively throughout Europe and done on ortwo big mountains over the years.

These days though are spent at a more sedate pace, I love the Scottish mountains and venture up there two or three times a year, but most weekends I'm up in the Howgills near Sedburgh, the western Yorkshire dales or this lovely area where I live.

I'm not interested in joining a ramblers club or walking with a big group of people...they're not for me. I do go walking occasionally with two or three very close friends but it would be nice to find someone on the same wavelength who would like to share some happy days in the hills come rain or shine.

My Preferred Walk Grades*: 2:3:4:6:7:8:9:

My Preferred Walk Areas:
North West Scotland; North East Scotland; Southern Scotland; North West England; Yorkshire;

A bit more about me:

I quite enjoy Scrambling & Edges but don't like too much exposure. I'm happy to walk in all weathers - sunshine, snow, hail, wind & rain - bring it on. I like walking with dogs and will bring my own. I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are pretty good. I can drive and have a car.

I am also interested in:

  • Camping on Campsites - Camping where there is a shop, toilets, showers & possibly a pub;
  • Wild Camping - Camping out in the wilds well away from anyone & any facilities;
  • Long Distance Path Walking - Multi-day walks like The Pennine Way, Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk;
  • Back Packing - Multi-day walks carrying all your gear & wild camping;

I am not actively looking for anyone other than a new walking companion but if that right person came along . . .
