  1. I don't really have any concerns or questions at the moment. I'm excited to climb and find it exciting. I trust my group to catch me, and i think i trust myself to catch others.

  2. I don't wanna climb all the way to the top :/ I'm a little rusty on tying the knots but other than that I think this will be fun.

  7. Climbing was really fun on Friday! I'm excited to climb to the top & challenge myself while climbing. The one thing that I'm concerned about is that there is so much going on at the same time, when I was belaying, I had to make sure I was focused on the climber and nothing else. I just want everyone to be focused on their group, not what is happening on another wall.

  8. I just don't want us to become too placid about safety that we make careless errors. I haven't climbed yet because I wasn't here Friday, but I'm looking forward to it and hope that all will go well.

  12. I am not worried about climbing. My only fear is how to get proper footing. I had a hard time getting my feet to stay on the rock. My foot kept slipping and I kept on falling. Except for that I am already to climb.

  13. I'm just really excited to get to climb on an actual wall, because i reallllly didn't like the net thing. I'm glad that we're all pretty good at balaying, so I'm not worried about someone messing up.

  14. I'm really excited to start climbing because I had a chance to climb a couple of years ago but I only went 2 feet before going back down. I want to be able to say that I climbed all the way to the top.

  15. I don't have any questions, but I'm extremely concerned about climbing. I know that I'm safe and that I can trust my classmates, but even when I just barely got off the ground I started freaking out and couldn't figure out where to put my feet and hands, and even when others were helping me, I couldn't get myself to move my feet and hands where I had to if I didn't think I was strong enough. Even though I was freaking out, Im looking forward to overcoming this fear and really starting to climb.

  16. I thought climbing was really fun last friday. My only concern is that I do a good job on the safety procedure, tying the knots, but I trust that my classmates will help me if I have trouble making the knots. Other than that I am excited to keep climbing.

  17. My only concern is that some people do not want to climb and we have to push them just to get up the wal and eliminate there fear of heights.

  18. I'm concerned about climbing just because I don't have the strength to lift myself up on the rocks. That's the only problem I have because I'm not worried about my classmates catching me when I fall. Hopefully I will get better at climbing and get to the top!

  19. I'm not particularly worried about falling, but I am a little concerned at if I can actually climb (I'm very slow and unsteady) and I have a slight fear of heights so... I think everything will go smoothly once I climb more often

  20. The only thing that I'm slightly concerned about is that the belayer might not be able to hold the climber up. Besides that, no worries. Let's climb on.

  24. i'm excited to climb to the top, but i'm scared to climb over the overhangs. and i'm a little nervous to fall because it seems like some people aren't paying attention every second. i just don't wanna fall!

  25. I don't really have any concerns. Everyone is doing a great job and I feel like if I fell they would catch me, although there is always that lingering fear that if I do fall something will go wrong, but thats just my fear of heights.
