Climbing Skills

Spend Sunday with Edinburgh University Mountaineering Club members Megan and Lucia at EICA Ratho and also in Ratho Quarry.

It was damp and wet in the morning, so we stayed indoors looking at learning-to-lead indoors, and then looking at setting up trad belay anchors

We also looked at personal abseils.

It dried up a bit in the afternoon, so we headed into the quarry and looked at placing nuts and cams and setting up anchors, before finding some dry rock to get some rock climbing in and placing gear.
