As he ascends Fisher Place gill above Thirlmere in the Lake District, UK, a rare spectacle unfolds before our eyes - a majestic frozen waterfall transformed into an ephemeral playground for climbers. With unwavering balance and unyielding strength, Mike tackles this treacherous terrain with agility that leaves us breathless. The danger lurking beneath his crampons is palpable as he fearlessly navigates through exposed gullies and solid ice formations. Every step taken is a testament to his confidence and skill. As winter blankets the landscape with its freezing touch, Mike stands tall against sub-zero temperatures and biting winds.

This image encapsulates both the beauty of nature's frozen masterpiece and the indomitable spirit of human determination. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of extreme risk, there are those who dare to push boundaries beyond what seems possible. So let us celebrate Mike Withers' remarkable feat as he conquers this formidable frozen waterfall – a true testament to his resilience amidst Cumbria's stunning National Park.
