Joe Mann

After receiving a BA in Outdoor Leadership, Joe worked all over the mountain areas of the UK, falling in love with the Scottish highlands. He was 18 when he first explored Scotland's highlands, hiking all 282 of Scotland's “munros” (mountains over 1,000 meters) in 62 days, and in doing so, becoming the youngest person to complete the ascents in one continuous attempt. He says discovering the diverse mountains, lochs, and wildlife he found on that trip is still the best experience of his life. When he's not guiding, you'll find him running or racing in the hills, rock climbing on remote mountain crags, or swimming in a refreshing loch. Joe says, “If I'm lucky, I'll do it all in one day!”
