• Celebrating Dorothy Pilley's climbing achievements

Originally published in 1935, Climbing Days is a thoroughly inspirational memoir from trailblazing female mountaineer Dorothy Pilley, filled with adventure, bravery and the passion of a pioneering woman in a male-dominated sport.

When Dorothy Pilley first began climbing in the 1910s, female mountaineers were seen as a dangerous liability, their achievements ignored, unrecorded or disbelieved. Undeterred, Dorothy proved herself on the vertiginous slopes of Wales, Scotland and the Lake District before tackling rock faces in the Alps, the Pyrenees, the Rockies, Mount Fuji and the Himalayas.
