My first aid climb was quite an exciting one 4 days car to car due to scary thunderstorms! Climbing in a party of 3 defiantly had its challenges like carrying to much gear and one porta ledge without a fly. we slept underneath the great roof on day 3 which was quite cool and Stubbsy took a whip out of the roof in the dark haha
