I was working this Saturday on a family climbing day at Wintours Leap in the Wye Valley. The family of four had come over to stay at Tintern for a few days and wanted to make the most of their time and try some rock climbing.  The weather was great and the views superb. Got lots of rock climbing done and a few abseils, all in all a great family climbing day

I even showed the oldest son how to abseil using a stick to create friction!! Not something you want to do unless your on a safety rope but it does work really well, honestly. See below.
