Climbing Safety Skills at Colehill Quarry

On the 13th of April, 6 members joined Gill at Colehill quarry to practice sports climbing safety skills. Gill spends winters in Spain and has developed a range of skills that she shared with members. Aspects covered included: clipping techniques, belay devices & belaying techniques, threading the anchor & lowering. Everyone enjoyed the chance to practice the techniques in a supportive environment.

This session will be repeated in the autumn.

The next workshop will be led by Chester, focusing on hoisting & escaping the system and is suitable for all skill levels.
