[upbeat music] [birds chirping] This Scotland Outdoors Podcast from BBC Radio Scotland. [upbeat music] Hello, and thanks very much for choosing to listen to this. I'm Helen Needham. Mountaineer and adventure enthusiast Anna Wells has done a number of things in her life before she settled on a career as a mountain guide. And as you'll hear, it's the spirit of adventure that has motivated her to achieve some incredible feats, not least being the first female to complete the full Munro round in winter. That's all 282 Munros in the space of one season. Learning about her very considered but open-minded approach was fascinating to me, especially as Anna is now the mother of baby Fergus, who she takes up mountains and camps with regularly.
