Description

I broke this up into 3 pitches. getting him to build his own belay when he got to the stance and seeing his equalise anchors, he had a brilliant understanding of it all and confirmed he had done alot of it but really battled with the self confidence of climbing. however the constant repetition of building belays talking to me etc, he really grew his confidenec. i then climbed Central crack and again repeated the cycle.
I then went back to block chimney set an abseil and placed gear. after that i then went to the base of the route and he then led the route clipping the gear.
he took alot away from the day.
