Waymaking is an anthology of prose, poetry & artwork by women who are inspired by wild places, adventure & landscape. Published in 1961, Gwen Moffat`s Space Below My Feet tells the story of a woman who shirked the conventions of society & chose to live a life in the mountains. Some years later in 1977, Nan Shepherd published The Living Mountain, her prose bringing each contour of the Cairngorm mountains to life. These pioneering women set a precedent for a way of writing about wilderness that isn`t about conquering landscapes, reaching higher, harder or faster, but instead about living & breathing alongside them, becoming part of a larger adventure. The artists in this inspired collection continue Gwen & Nan`s legacies, redressing the balance of gender in outdoor adventure literature. Their creativity urges us to stop & engage our senses: the smell of rain-soaked heather, wind resonating through a col, the touch of cool rock against skin, & most importantly a taste of restoring mind, body & spirit to a former equanimity. With contributions from adventurers including Alpinist magazine editor Katie Ives, multi-award-winning author Bernadette Mc Donald, adventurers Sarah Outen & Anna Mc Nuff, renowned filmmaker Jen Randall & many more, Waymaking is an inspiring & pivotal work published in an era when wilderness conservation & gender equality are at the fore. ...
