Flying the Wainwrights

BySimon Blake

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
In 2013 in the English Lake District, paraglider pilot Simon Blake attempted something never tried before - bagging all 214 of the fells in Wainwright's Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells in a single calendar year... by paraglider. This is the story of the preparation and execution of a challenge that became an obsession. It charts the highs and the lows, and offers an insight into what it takes to complete the Wainwrights using an aircraft you carry on your back. Simon Blake is the author of "Prepare to Fly - Paragliding Tips I Wish I'd Learned Sooner". www.preparetofly.co.uk www.flyingthewainwrights.co.uk
