Mostly those crags north of Leeds and the M62 in the Yorkshire Dales, but also the crags in the vicinity of Harrogate and Wetherby. The grit cracks in South Yorkshire close to the Peak District are covered in the Peak District Region, as are those just north of the Peak but south of the M62. Protect the Rock – let this be your mantra. John Dunne and Lucy Creamer cut their teeth here. Tradition is respected but cams and mats come in useful.
Morning shadowing session of 3hrs working with John Rocks on an outdoor climbing course. 3 young teenage females who have prior experience on rock, John and I supported them to set up top rope anchors and complete some rope rope climbs. A great shadowing session for me to not only visit a new site which gave me more knowledge, but also to see how another instructor might set up two rope ropes side by side.
