Day 1 Climbing Progression course April

On day one Alan, Jason and myself headed to Bamford edge, where we looked at anchor poits, anchor selection, setting of belays, placement of protection. We then had a look at some typical gritstone climbing and techniques such as finger, hand and fist jamming and smearing. We also learnt about crag and route selection with the guys setting up their own ropes and climbing various routes including Browns Crack at HS 4b. Beautiful day, in amazing classic peak location.
