Outdoor Pursuits

Today I got to go to the arch and rock climb. I was nervous cause I have not rock climbed in ages and it was my first time belaying. Belaying is the person that tightens the rope when the person that is climbing. So I went first out my 3 person group to rock climb. I was instructed to go up not that far so the person belaying can get a feel for belaying. We all did that. Then it was my turn to belay. I did better than I thought I did. It is a lot of work to belay. After the day I couldn't get all the way to the top but next time that is my goal.
