John Sumner (climber)
John (Fritz) Sumner (b. Blackburn 13 March 1936, d. 2004) was the pre-eminent exploratory climber in his chosen domain of Mid Wales, climbing cutting-edge routes on the remote crags and cliff-faces south of southern Snowdonia starting in the mid-1950s.
Sumner dominated climbing in Mid Wales, including routes on the waterfalls of Maesglase.
