Stanage

Above: Black Hawk Traverse

Today I met Dave at Stanage for the second day of his Learn to Lead course. We picked up were we left off yesterday, with Dave leading Grotto Slab, then Mantlepiece Buttress. He then stepped it up and led Black Hawk Traverse and Hollybush Crack. We then looked at getting stuck gear back and rigged a couple of abs. Dave also wanted to know how to rig a bottom rope with only one rope, so we looked at this before going in to Hathersage to look at kit. A great to days and lucky with th weather.
