Nigel Vardy tells us about growing up in the Belper, Derbyshire, his early forays into the hills and his explorations and adventures culminating in his fateful trip to Mt McKinley in 1999 where he suffered severe frostbite and nearly lost his life.  Mike and Nigel go on to discuss his adventures since, re-discovering climbing and mountaineering, writing his 2 books and recently being elected as President of Buxton MRT.
