Yesterday was the highly anticipated rock climbing trip for the Leaders in Training. Campers and counselors traveled out to Chapel Ledge in Ashfield, a popular rock climbing spot. Leah Lamdin and Greg DiFortuna of Kroka Expeditions in New Hampshire led the trip. Everyone tried their best and conquered some personal challenges! Leah and Greg had a great belaying system in which a series of campers was responsible for belaying one climber. Two campers held the belay rope and a third held the climbers harness to keep them upright (seen in the first photo). Many campers repelled down the ledge at the end of the day, which can be exhilarating! All in all a great day of team challenges, group trust and leadership was had by all. Bonus: it was mostly in the shade and much cooler than Amherst on such a hot day!
