Introducing Tom Pearce
Tom is a climber from the UK. Being born and raised in the North York Moors he has spent most of his teens climbing on the local sandstone. He has made repeats and first ascents of some of the hardest and boldest lines in the area, when not on sandstone, Tom tends to spend a lot of time soloing, whether its seas cliffs or mountain crags, you'll often see him without a rope.
When not climbing Tom spends a fair amount of time fell running, typically focusing on speed descents of certain routes and elevation gain. Most notably fast descents of Ben Nevis, Snowden and some of his local hills. In the future Tom has his eyes set on continuing his bold trad climbing with multiple routes on his radar and potentially making some films involving descents and climbing.
