It's a long time since Andy Houseman was part of the Saturday staff at Out & About's Harrogate store but we've always kept in touch and followed his mountaineering career with interest. We've just learnt of his recent ascent of the previously unclimbed North Face of Chang Himal (6750m) in the Himalaya, completed Alpine-style in 5 days with fellow mountaineer Nick Bullock- an outstanding achievement. Andy is sponsored by Mountain Equipment and you can read his account of the climb on their Pro-partner blog
