About The Author

James Castrission

James Castrission, aka Cas, is a highly motivated, self-confessed outdoor junkie. His major passion in life is his climbing and if he’s not off training for another epic adventure, he’s pretty much guaranteed to be found up in the mountains. He has a Bachelor of Commerce and has worked as a consultant and analyst for Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu before deciding that mountaineering, rock climbing, bushwalking and kayaking should be the focus of his life. He has climbed some of the most challenging peaks in Australia, New Zealand, Africa and the US and has walked some of the most breathtaking tracks too. Cas is the author of CROSSING THE DITCH, his first book that tells of his and Jonesy’s triumphant kayak paddle from Australia to New Zealand.
