‘If I could no longer trust my own abilities how could I expect anyone else to want to climb with me?’
A skilled and keen climber throughout his teenage years, at the age of just nineteen, Red Széll learned that he was going blind. His harnesses seemed to be packed away forever but after twenty years he began climbing again which led him to tackle the treacherous Orcadian sea stack The Old Man of Hoy.
This inspiring extract shows Red’s long-standing love of climbing and details how the devastating diagnosis of Retinitis Pigmentosa led him to dangerous ‘night climbing’.
