Intorduction to lead climbing Day 2




Today we headed down to Glen Nevis to build on the skills that were covered yesterday and to gradually add to what they have learnt. We climbed 9 pitches looking mostly at protection selection and placement, belay building and stance management. I was working with Ali and Emily and they both did their first lead. We climbed 3 Pines, Right Wall (repton), Right Wall (styx) and Pinnacle Ridge. It was quite windy today which was drying out the crag nicely. Our final day is on Friday after the group have done two days hill walking and navigation practice.
