Nevisport was founded in 1970 in Fort William, by two rock climbers, lifelong friends and mountaineering partners (Ian Sykes MBE and Ian Sutherland). Only yesterday, Ian Sykes became the fourth recipient of the Scottish Award for Excellence in Mountain Culture! This prestigious annual award recognizes and celebrates the achievements and accomplishments of one inspiring individual and their outstanding contributions to Scotland's mountains. Both Sykes and Sutherland were then, and still are, active members of the Lochaber Mountain Rescue Team. In addition to selling climbing gear, they added a selection of camping equipment to the first store in hopes of making a living from the hobby that had turned into a viable business. Nevisport now sells a wide range of outdoor sports gear from winter snowsports to summer walking. Visit them online at http://www.nevisport.com/ or call 01397 704921
