Look ma! I can climb!

A few months ago my climbing partner and I decided to try out the climbing wall at Union South. Nick took some pictures :)



It was actually pretty good.



The only weird part was that the routes were auto-belay and we're used to standing under our partner, belaying them and offering them beta.

Those auto-belay things make me nervous, even if they're 100% safe. First time I was on one, I couldn't let go of the rope with my hands simply because I'm so used to have a belayer do the slow and steady release during descent.
