The story
The British Mountain Guides Association was formed in 1975 as an autonomous body to develop and enhance the training, skills and reputation of the increasing number of skilled mountaineers who wished to qualify as guides and follow this profession in the world's mountains. The mountaineer Roger Payne was president of the BMG for some years until his death in 2012 on Mont Maudit.
