What was your first lead climb? Ask any climber and they will tell you theirs as if it were yesterday. Before you take on the "sharp end" of the rope, get yourself up to speed on all the techniques and equipment needed, on Mountain Sense's Introduction to Lead Climbing course.

For most climbers there comes the day when you feel its time to take on the so called 'sharp end' of the rope.  As exciting as it is nerve racking, this is not something that should be taken lightly and is the very reason that this two day course is a highly beneficial investment to your climbing "career". There is a lot to learn to be able to safely lead and with Mountain Sense you are in the best hands. We will progressively give you the skills, knowledge and confidence to be able to safely lead naturally protected climbs. You will learn under the direct supervision of an expert instructor who will climb along side you helping you every step of the way with your climbing technique, runner placements and belay set ups.
