my first week of rockclimbing with tpp
this started at the indoor wall in greymouth.this was a chance to find out what level we are at and a chance to get back in to in.some of us also got a chance to do some lead climbing.
the next day we went out to charlston to learn about climbing, using natural pro gear and setting up anchors for top rope climbing. also worked on our technique.
it was a real cool climbing right beside the waves crashing against the rocks.
we camped for 2 nights was only a 15 min walk to the rock.
most of the climbs that we set up were not much of a challenge for me but was a good start for some of the other students that hadn't done much rock climbing.
on the last day it was raining so we went back to greymouth,and went on the indoor wall.at indoor wall we worked on abseiling. on my last climb i tried leadclimbing the big over hang which went onto the roof,didn't make it all the way but made it 2 clips further than the first day. this would have been one of the highlights of my week, used up all my my energy but was worth it.
