It's another busy month here at Cicerone, with our Kendal Mountain Festival event just around the corner. It's also much darker in the evenings now so we asked Joe for some advice on choosing a headtorch. Lily Dyu introduces us to Fastpacking (if you're not sure what that is then read her article!). Meanwhile various authors, friends and staff members have been walking and trekking in Catalonia, Cumbria, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Alaska and Australia. Phew!
Best wishes, Hannah
