Vivienne, An Adventurer



Progress update time! Woo! So, this picture was taken four days after my first attempt to climb this course. When I first tried to climb this one, I couldn't get further than maybe five or six feet up and I kept falling. Four days later, I managed to reach the top! I was actually kind of amazed. I had a lot of fun, but dang! It was tough! My hands kept slipping, my arms were getting tired, and I nearly fell a few times, but! I made it!

We have at this point, I think, tried all of the auto-belays (All the courses where you strap into a rope that automatically catches and lowers you safely, as opposed to top rope, where you're tied into a rope with someone belaying you, or securing the other end of the rope. Both are fun!), and we've been practicing belying each other. Now all I need to do is get myself some shoes and my own harness, and I'll be unstoppable!
