'Dark, wet rock hung above the path, no more than a narrow shelf clinging to steep walls before sliding into oblivion. The mist shifted, hinting at the plunging fall to the corrie far below, and I moved with measured care. One step to pass the arete: a perfect moment of weightless movement as the mountains held their breath. And then on and up, into thinning cloud to find the ridge above' Northern Horizons is the story of one runner's lifelong love affair with the mountains of Scotland and Cumbria. It is also a guidebook, and therefore an invitation to join a growing community that finds both solace and thrill in moving fleet-footed through the hills. Will Herman has spent much of his life exploring and piecing together some of the finest journeys among high plateaux, bladed ridges, sweeping slabs, towering pinnacles - and the myriad landscapes connecting them. Here, his experiences are revealed in a collection of deeply personal and evocative accounts, accompanied by route descriptions and sublime imagery that captures their exquisite beauty.
