An introduction to climbing on the Southern Sandstone.

I took Rory, John, Ardit and Shail to the Southern Sandstone for their first experience of climbing on rock. They spent a day top-roping routes, learning how to set up the ropes and refining their technqiue to adapt to a more 3D surface with less friction and no colour coding!
