Nick Livesey fell in love with Britain’s mountain landscapes after early library discoveries of W.A. Poucher and Alfred Wainwright. Over 25 years of hillwalking, photography and guiding culminated in a move to Capel Curig in 2013 and regular work for magazines such as The Great Outdoors and TRAIL. He is a qualified Mountain Leader and author of Photographing the Snowdonia Mountains (2018). Nick combines precise route knowledge with a photographer’s eye to guide readers into the less frequented ranges of North Wales.
