Ground Up is a small publishing company based in Llanberis in North Wales. In 2007 it published its first title, the well received North Wales Rock, a selected guide to climbing on the Northern Snowdonia, Anglesey, Lleyn Peninsula and Llandudno crags. Ground Up head honcho, Simon Panton has previous form, so to speak. In 2004 he wrote and published North Wales Bouldering, and he continues to run the news site northwalesbouldering.com, as well as being a regular contributor to Climber magazine. He is also a director of the V12 Outdoor shop in Llanberis.
