New Climber Course 7-11 June



Mike from Corsham had done a little indoor climbing, but wanted to learn how to do it properly! He booked 5 days with me and despite day one being wet, he said he had "a great, life changing time"! To show him what to do, I took Mike to Halldrine Cove, Roche Rock, Hawks Tor, Pordenack Point, Gurnards Head and Bosigran. By the end of the week, Mike had led a couple of Severes and had successfully followed a couple of VSs, including the very steep Mexican Pete at Pordenack. Highlights of the week were climbing Right Angle in the evening gloom, finishing at 9.55pm, the beer in the Tinners Arms afterwards and Mike leading the whole of Bosigran Ridge (including the Armchair pitch).
