Crag to ourselves


Day two for Izzi and more leading for her was on the cards. We went to Langdale and Izzi led all the way up Middlefell Buttress (Diff). She wanted to focus on managing the ropework and belays as if she was leading a novice with her. We abseiled off looking at simple abseil set up and ways of protecting an abseil. We then moved over and climbed The original Route (Severe). This time Izzi wanted to see ropework and stance management when two climbers are swapping leads. So this is what we did on this climb. We both led two pitches each. We abseiled off the crag again and got back to the bags just before it got dark.
