Cripes, that is not good. Where was the picture taken?
It's been a while since I went Rock Climbing. Good fun. It is quite a experience to fall back, waiting for the rope to tighten and hoping that itwont snap when you are 25 meters above the ground
Due to the angle of the shot, you just can't see the winch rope. Mandatory equipment for Grade 'A' track - there is no backing down from those ones, & I don't think anyone would be silly enough to try it without a life-line attached.
