A busy week this week with courses running through the sunshine of the weekend and dodging the showers of the week - Tintern Quarry was the venue for Philipp and Rebecca's first sport climbing leads on some reasonable grade F3's and F4's, with the tree canopy of Symonds Yat providing cover from the odd shower for introducing Will and Georgina to steep limestone climbing, shade was also needed as the week warmed up with Charlotte, Emma, Ella and Kate enjoying some long abseils and challenging climbing - we even ended up in a cave at one point to cool down as the rocks seemed to start sweating ! Thanks to all above for having the energy to make the week an enjoyable one.
This blog follows my climbing trips; based in the Forest of Dean , climbing in the nearby Wye Valley, North Wales, Scotland, Picos de Europa Spain and European Alps.
