Steep Rock
More showery weather this week led to a damp start on Saturday, but with a drying breeze and some warm sunshine the rocks soon dried off allowing courses to explore the Wye Valley cliffs and a visit to Tintern Quarry for some sport climbing in the sun - not many teams out considering the time of year, so we've been able to pick and choose routes to best suit the courses - mostly concentrating on the technical aspects of gear placements / ropework / anchors etc. and with some time spent on climbing movement / technique on steep rock. Thanks to Jill, Andy, Chris, Tom, Jen, Kerry and Chris for their company.
