Thinking Off-Piste

Emily Scott grew up in the Northern Irish countryside and moved to London after university, where she began to realise just how strong the pull of the mountains was. After qualifying as a chartered accountant, Emily left the city and pursued a totally different lifestyle, and has since become a ski instructor and a mountain leader. In summer 2018, Emily climbed all 282 of Scotland’s munros (mountains over 3,000ft) travelling between them by bike in a 120 day self-powered solo expedition.
