Climbing is darn scary. It seems like
one minute you are on the ground standing in sheep
pooh, then the next minute you are 40 foot off the
ground clinging onto some rock face cacking yourself
because you haven't been able to insert any protection.
One false move and the laws of gravity take over (which
in this case is not good) so in order to avoid becoming
a splattered mess on the ground you'll need skill,
technique, strength, determination, and to be prepared
for some trouser filling moments.
We at Doctor Danger like climbing,
we like it a lot!
As with all our sections
you can take the option of either looking into how
you get started or if you
already know what your doing you can browse all the
other stuff we've gathered together on climbing. The
getting started section is sub-divided into the various
types of climbing including bouldering, traditional
(i.e. trad), indoor, alpine, ice, alpine, sport and
mixed.
Even skilled and
experienced climbers who climb with a healthy degree
of caution are susceptible to accidents so please
take tuition from qualified instructors, take care
and don't fall!
