Bouldering in Pune, Part I

I have been honing my rock climbing skills for a few months now..the best way to do that is to regularly engage in bouldering practice with your fellow climbers.Posting just a few pictures from a day when we were practicing  a “sitting traverse”.More will come in the due course of time.

First,a definition of’ ‘Bouldering’: Low-to-the-ground climbing wherein the climber can jump back down to the ground, and a rope and belay are not necessary..They are often short, hard routes on low-lying rocks without using protective gear.

Venue:Quarry on the hill behind Fergusson college ,Pune

Now,to the pictures….
