Ioan Doyle never stops. He鈥檚 one of the best shearers, dry-stone wallers, and fencers 鈥� as well as being a world-class climber and mountaineer. He鈥檚 scaled the toughest peaks in the world and has twice attempted the so-far unclimbed South Ridge of K7 in the Himalayas.

Ioan and his wife Janie own and run a busy contracting business in Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, alongside farming sheep, pigs and chickens and raising their two young children, Evan and Eidda.

Yet, for all his energy, self-belief and determination, Ioan feels torn between two worlds: farming and climbing. He opens up to Anna Jones about the conflict he feels trying to balance the 鈥減ride and tradition鈥� of Welsh hill farming with the 鈥渉ard graft鈥� of contracting while pushing his body and mind to the limit on the world鈥檚 most inaccessible and dangerous rock faces.

Produced and presented by Anna Jones
