From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gwen Moffat (born 1924) is a British climber and writer.

Moffat was a free spirit who loved and lived the Bohemian lifestyle through the forties, fifties and sixties, making a living from climbing, and becoming the first female British guide. She described her life in her classic autobiography Space Below My Feet. She subsequently went on to write detective fiction, in particular the Miss Pink series featuring Melinda Pink, a middle aged magistrate and climber.
