Last week I was out climbing with Graham and John, working for the Joint Services Mountain Training Centre at Indefatigable, Anglesey (JSTMC).
Day 1: Single Pitch Award Training, (SPA) at Holyhead mountain.

Graham acsending a rope, and self belaying back down.
Day 2: SPA training and an introduction to more advanced rescues, sport climbing and stripping out routes, at Dinorwig Slate quarries.

Day 3: Multipitch Training, climbing uber-classic routes on Dinas Cromlech “Flying Buttress” and “Spiral Stairs” in the Llanberis Pass.

John and Graham about to second Pitch 4 off “Flying Buttress”
Day 4: Rock Lead Climbing training at Craig y Tonnau in the Moelwyns, to escape the weather. More advanced rescues and improvised solutions to multipitch problems.

Me coaching Graham a little on “Diane’s Approval”
Day 5: Little Tryfan for multipitch leading of routes.
