Beyond The Void - A Lecture by Simon Yates Simon Yates first became known as the man who cut the rope holding his friend and climbing partner Joe Simpson during their descent from Peru’s Siula Grande in 1985, a story immortalised in the film ‘Touching the Void’. 20 years on, Simon is one of the most successful mountaineers of his time, and is touring the UK with his entertaining and inspiring lecture. Simon’s dry wit, philosophical approach and stunning images transport his audience to some of the highest and most treacherous peaks in the world, giving a real insight into the mountain environment and the extreme mental and physical challenge of climbing. |
