Lou Reynolds, International Mountain Guide

Outdoor Lives by Mike Raine

Lou, from Devon, is now living and working in the French Alps as a Mountain Guide. She talks through gaining her Mountain Training Qualifications and then becoming a Guide. She tells us what it's like to work as a Guide. She now lives in Chamonix with her Mountain Guide husband and they are expecting their first child, which is always a challenge for self-employed people. We do, of course, touch on the added challenges a female climber has living the life of an instructor and Guide.
