Skill acquisition at the wall

Working with first year Degree students from UHI today at the Ice Factor whilst outside it was warm and mild. After I looked at some ideas whilst teaching them to tie an Alpine Butterfly they worked in small teams to look at designing practise and introducing skills as varied as belaying, smearing, flagging and a retrievable abseil. Keen team and fun to work with them and fellow instructor Ally.
