My 1st VS - well chuffed! I'm 11 yrs old - made me think about life, why we are here & what created the amazing motivations to climb these places.

Lead first pitch. Great start, but came a cropper on the chimney where it turned out carrying a bag made the moves a whole lot more difficult. Took a fall from the top of the chimney and landed at the bottom unhurt. Clipped bag to gear and reattempted successfully. Second pitch still challenging but more straightforward. Leave your bag at the bottom!
