On Saturday the 22nd October, four members of the Pelorus team, Venetia, Jonny, Bella and Megan climbed to the summit of three of the UK’s highest peaks in 24 hours. Beginning in Scotland, the team first scaled the Munro Cairn Gorm, which, at 1,245 metres, is the seventh-highest mountain in the British Isles. Then, through the night they climbed Skiddaw (931 metres) in the Lake District, before venturing onto Snowdonia to complete the challenge by getting to the top of Carned Llewelyn, 1,064 metres. It was an incredible feat to undertake as we headed into the British winter, with only 10 hours of daylight, the challenge took on a whole new sense of adventure in the dark.
