We had a fantastic afternoon with Mark! We booked 1:2 tuition for my daughter and I on a cloudy but pleasant day. We had a brisk walk to the site,... read more and chatted on the route (about a ten minute walk from the car park). Once we got to the rock, he explained more about what we’d be doing and then went to set up.
We took the opportunity to admire the views, which are stunning! We watched the cloud enshroud the tops of the hills.
When he returned we had a go at climbing the different routes; Mark gave us enough leeway to figure out routes ourselves and sometimes offer some help from below.
At the end of our session he showed us how the ropes where secured to the rock and we talked about a few different types of knots. All too soon it was time to return to the car park.
In all, it was a fantastic way to spend an afternoon. Much fun was had!
Thank you, Mark, for a brilliant session!

Great activity to do when visiting the lakes - Had a great time going up Stickle Ghyll with Mark. Everything was well explained and you always felt safe. Climbing the waterfalls was so fun and something I will be... read more doing again in future.

Scrambling in the Langdales - A very very big thank you for a truly fantastic day yesterday Mark scrambling in the Langdales - I was a bit unsure how involved and interesting the day was... read more going to be, but it turned out a real belter! Superb doesn’t even begin to describe it.
I must thank you specifically for your patience, professionalism and encouragement - I have a massive sense of achievement today thanks to you, and am still wondering why anyone would go up Jack’s Rake without a helmet and a rope and a Mark ..
And best of luck with your Costa Blanca Mountain Adventures book launch - sounds amazing.
