Sarah Crowsley

Me in 3; Small, Sporty, Hungry

Places to play; mountains. So many amazing places. The North West Highlands are incredible, I will always take an opportunity to adventure there – awesome mountains, rugged coast, so much space, freedom and beauty.

Not many people know this; I really like maths – but it just involves too much sitting down.

Bio; being outside, being active and having an adventure – this is what motivates me and keeps me happy. Being able to share this with amazing people in beautiful places is a total win. I do this for fun, but also sometimes people pay me to do this and I am not going to argue with that. I have been working in the outdoor industry since finishing college 10 years ago and it has been great. My background is mostly in climbing and mountain based adventures but in recent years I have not been able to resist sea kayaking and mountain biking. This has now become part of my work as well as play. Looking forward to another season of meeting many new people, returning to some of my favourite places and exploring many new ones – every day will be different and this is exciting.

Adventurer's Stories about Sarah

Sarah was superb - she maintained a happy, friendly, professional and encouraging approach throughout the week, even when it was difficult to make plans that suited each one of us.

Diane McPhail

The Guide is very kind, devoted and skilful. She organized the hickes very well according to the weather (wind and rain). She helped us a lot. We felt safe with her.

Franck Lehagre

Sarah has been extremely professional and always focus to make our experience unique.

Luca Lapenna

Sarah Crowsley was terrific. She was very energetic and organized (good at estimating time requirements for various aspects the daily plan and making sure we neither had not enough time or too much to get through the schedule. Sarah was particularly impressive at picking out the daily activities to take advantage of the most favorable wind and weather conditions to make the most of each day. This meant that we varied from the itinerary on the WS website, which was perfectly fine - I think everyone appreciated the flexibility we had. Sarah was also very attentive to coaching us across the more challenging terrain that we had to navigate and was attentive to the variable capabilities among members of the group (e.g.., one woman had a knee that had been injured right before the trip started and needed some additional care and attention). I also have to give Sarah high grades for her dedication and willingness to undertake a couple of longer linear hikes where she had to retrace our steps, running, to pick up the van to collect us (from a beer garden in Lochinvar, twice)

Bill Asher

Sarah you're a star. You are friendly supportive and set a pace. You accomodated everyone and took their views/preferences into consideration. Thank you.

Michele Smith

Sarah was awesome and warm and funny and answered questions if she didn't know one she made sure to research and get back to us later that evening or the next day! Her enthusiasm for her job was infectious! Inspired leader.
