Description
Gwen Moffat's unconventional journey began in 1945, when she left behind a life in the Army to live rough in Wales and Cornwall. With nothing but a rope and a sleeping bag, she hitchhiked her way across the country, taking on various jobs to survive, including forester, winkle-picker, and artist's model.
Throughout her adventures, the mountains remained a constant draw, and Moffat's mountaineering exploits became increasingly bold. She tackled the toughest climbs, earning her a reputation as Britain's leading female climber and the first woman to qualify as a mountain guide.
This unique and fascinating story offers a glimpse into Moffat's remarkable life, marked by self-reliance, determination, and a deep love of the natural world.
