Steve Findlay

A prolific developer around the south west of the UK and a prominent member of The Clean Hand Gang who eschewed the use of chalk while climbing.

Steve Monks:

As our friendship and climbing partnership grew it became clear that, for Steve, the essence of climbing - of life itself really - was so much about the feeling, the moment, the joy of a shared adventure. [3]
