lead climbing


I really truly led my first climb ever today (a really easy 5.8). Even though it was easy, it was exciting because there was the actual "danger" of being above the clipped rope and the possibility of falling existed (more than a few inches, but of course not more than a few feet). I also did my first lead belay (on a 5.9 even!). With my inexperience, I theoretically could have dropped him to the ground, but he never fell, *whew*!

Thankfully, no climbers were injured in the making of this blog post.
