Geoff Gould has been climbing and abseiling since 1979; starting while at Maru-A-Pula High School in Botswana.  He then started technical rock climbing (with ropes and gear) in 1986 with the Wits University Mountain Club.  He immediately took to trad leading.  He climbed with such South African greats as Roger Nattrass, Michael Cartwright, Peter Lazarus, and Stewart Middlemiss.

Nemo, Vancouver, Harrison Hot Springs, Chehalis River Gorge, Yak Peak, Skaha, Niagara Escarpment), and South Africa (Table Mountain, Muizenberg, Waterval Boven, Magaliesberg, the Drakensberg, Shongweni, Kloof, Hilton, Monteseel, Valley of a Thousand Hills, Harrismith, Swinburne, Umgeni Valley and at Howick Falls)….and he loves climbing trees!!
