Learn to Lead

 Had Andy back on Saturday for another day for a Learn to Lead day at North Burbage, it was great to see Andy climbing well and progressing in his climbing.

Intro to Climbing

At the weekend I had an intro to climbing course running, the weather was great and Hanna and Steve really enjoyed the course.

Stanage

Had a great day with Andy and Alister on the learn to lead course. The sun was out but the wind was up, that was good because it kept the midges away.

Nicky just starting up evening wall (E1 5b)

Went out this morning in the peaks, got a few nice routes in. It was warm and there was a bit of cloud cover and light winds. The weather has changed this evening to light rain, not good.  

Avon Gorge

This weekend I was climbing in Avon Gorge with Lee, who was getting ready for the hard pitch. We had great weather all weekend.
