As sponsors, Nevisport have kindly donated the new Mountain Equipment Firefox II Jacket (in Flame Scarlet). The jacket is a sample for testing and won't be in production until this autumn. Obviously Nevisport will be stocking this jacket and are looking forward to hearing how it performs....
The jacket is Mountain Equipment's lightest mountain jacket and is made of the new Goretex Active Shell material, the most breatheable Goretex manufactured to date. If in May it rains anything like it is right now, this jacket should certainly get put through its paces!
Please click the 'KIT' tab above for more details about kit/equipment donated by sponsors and to read reviews about its performance.
Thank you very much to Nevisport Director Rab Ferrell for giving me the opportunity to try out this brilliant little jacket (it hardly weighs anything and looks sliiiick!) Thank you also to Nancy for all her help and encouragement!

To raise money for the John Muir Trust and WaterAid, my challenge was to traverse the UK BIG 3 mountain rounds in one BIG multi-day push - solo!! This included the Bob Graham Round (England), Paddy Buckley Round (Wales) and Ramsay Round (Scotland), and covers 187 miles, 113 mountain summits and 83,000ft of ascent (that's about 3 times Everest)! I tried to complete this challenge in ten days during May 2011. Read on to find out how it went....
