Russ was a banker who read books about adventurers, adventurers who inspired him to want his very own epic adventure, not something that had been done many times, but something new and something he was good at.... sleeping!
Russ aka @amountainbivvi set out to camp on each of the 214 Wainwright's fells in the Lake District over the course of a year, enduring all that mother nature could throw at him through all 4 seasons and finishing with a world record - the most people camping out in a bivvy in one night!
Russ documented his connections with each of the mountains in his book 'Fell Asleep' which is available on Amazon now by clicking here.
