Had a fun day at The Dewerstone, teaching and consolidating trad climbing skills for this excellent climber, aiming to increase confidence in belay building and preparation to lead up through the grades.

Yosemite climber comes to Devon! 😎
What an awesome guy!

Roger started climbing in 1962.

He hung out with Royal Robbins, Yvon Chouinard and others in Yosemite’s Camp 4 in the 60s/70s - an era of rock climbing legends!

Roger climbed The Nose back in the 70’s, and climbed Cenotaph Corner in 1974 before Wild Country Friends were available (and before we were born)!

Nearly 80yrs, and still up for challenging climbs, in suboptimal conditions on Dartmoor just for the adventure of it!

Back home in the US, he continues to rock and ice climb.

What a privilege to guide you!

The inspiration for us all:

- Your body may change but your spirit doesn’t have to
- Keep adventuring, keep young!
- Never give up - just adapt
- Keep doing things that make you feel alive
- It’s all about mindset - age is just a number
- Rock climbing is for all ages

Thank you for choosing us Roger!

Aiming to build confidence with heights in preparation for a challenge in the Alps, on this half day Confidence-Building Workshop, we gradually progressed through stages of abseiling and rock climbing, until “we were willing to try much bigger and harder stuff than we ever thought we would!” 😎

We offer several short workshops in Devon to help with your skills and confidence. Please check out our website or contact us [email protected] to see how we can help you!
