Introduction to Outdoor Climbing..

Ruth, Franco, Cath and Kavita joined Darren Saxton and I this weekend for an introduction to rock climbing.

The aim of the weekend was to give a good idea of various facets of climbing available in the Peak District. We spent the time bouldering, doing a little bottom roping at Burbage North and climbing in a more traditional style by leading and seconding at Froggatt.

From here this should give everybody the skills required to visit an indoor wall, climb with more experienced friends, join a club or just get out bouldering.
