Heading up there for a weeks camping in June and I think it's time to take the gf outside climbing. So I need some single pitch crags where I can rig a top rope (proper top with me/her at the top down the crag)

Don't have a rigging rope so bottom roping might be apush but if short routes I've got enough (50m).

Can anyone suggest:
a) Some nice easy crags.
b) A guide book or pdf or webisite like javu.

Before you end up splitting up with your gf (as a result of your taking her climbing) have you asked her if she wants to go climbing and if she said yes, did she mean:

1. Yes - I have always wanted to try climbing and this will be the perfect opportunity for me.
2. Yes - you are so insistent that we go climbing that I am going to say yes to shut you up, but you are in trouble if I don't like it.

If 2, I suggest you allow her to trail her finger in the lake as you row her around. That or the pencil museum!

Have fun!

She suggest we take the rack, so I assume she must want to give it a go.
