Introduction to Rock Climbing (Peak District) - 17/18th Dec 2005

Perfect gritstone weather for this course in the middle of December. Brilliant friction for Toni and Beck's first time climbing. By the end of the weekend they were belaying and climbing really well. We went to Burbage North on the Saturday and then Millers Dale bridge for a big abseil as a bit of rest and relaxation. Went to Birchens on the Sunday which was nice and quiet. After the summer madness, it's easy to forget that sometimes you can get a bit of peace and quiet in the Peak.
