Last week I was in North Wales for Mountain Equipment’s athlete team meet. I had some unfinished business to attend to.
A guide to how to actually learn climbing technique, from hard practicalities to underlying principles.
The other day myself and Kev Shields went for a morning’s solo on Buachaille Etive Mor in Glen Coe. We climbed an easy classic, Agag’s Groove, that is a first mountain route for many new climbers. I decided to take a few cameras and film the climb. Soloing and filming at the same time is not all that easy. But its nice to show off the route and I hope it encourages more folk to go and climb mountain routes like this.
