The Small Girl gaining in climbing confidence at Boulder Welt.
[…] to the subject of a recent “Silent Sunday” of mine…. Granted a skirt and tights might not be your usual climbing uniform, but […]

what a brave girl!
She doesn’t get it from me! Thank you V! :)
Certainly looks like fun, but I like the balance of the colours. It’s like a still life.
Thank you Erica :)
I’m guessing that’s not a mat on the floor which she is crawling over on her belly? No didn’t think so. She’s braver than I am or ever was.
And me, and me! :D
Love this! Fun with great colours. xx
Thank you! :) xx
You should join her next time! (Says I, who have never done it before) : )
Do you know, I actually think I will, it did look fun. Has been years since I have done anything like that though! :D
i love this, love your composition and the colours on the wall.
my fav so far x
Thank you Sarah! :)
Looks like someone is having fun!
She was like some sort of demented spider, she can’t wait to go back! :D
Love this photo! MrL and his brothers are all rock climbers; we had a climbing wall in our back yard in Arizona, and both of the boys grew up going to the rock gym on weekends (or out to the actual rocks) with Daddy. I even did it for a while when I was younger, although never more than the casual weekend easy climbs. It’s such a great sport for girls – hope she’ll keep it up!
Thank you Caroline. She has always loved climbing, and the fact that this is v. free range meant she was v. much in her element! I think she will keep it up! :D
I’m not sure if I’m more impressed with her climbing skills or the fact that she’s doing it in a skirt, you go girl!
Haha… I think that might be my fault actually. Her little bro. was there for a birthday party, and the thought never occured to me that she would probably want to have a go, and there was no way she was doing it in her woolly tights. Not cool apparently! :D
what a brave girl
Her father’s daughter! :D
Part of me would love that and the other part, the part scared of heights would wee myself!
I like to think you needed to know that ;)
*reminder to self* If I ever go climbing with Annie, stick to the opposite wall! :D
Oh, that looks like a brilliant climbing wall :) Great fun!
It was brilliant (repeat x 25,000) apparently! :D
Great shot and she looks like she’s climbing deftly up the wall
Thanks Kriss! :)
Looks like someone is far more adventurous than me!
And me! :D Thank you…
Great angle for your shot, you’re usually stuck underneath with climbing walls. xx
Thanks Sarah! :) xx
She looks very brave!
She is a bit of a danger mouse (unlike her brother! :D )
Love it, girly and adventurous in one go, my type of girl!
She is definitely both of those! Thanks Oana! :)
That looks like fun x
Thanks Kim! :)
This looks like great fun :)
Apparently it gets 100 out of 10! :D
Fabulous colours. Looks like loads of fun!
Thank you! (:
Best climbing wall I’ve seen – what fun.
I think it’s the best one I have seen too! :D Thanks Fiona! :)
That’s a stunning shot – the colours on the wall and the fact that she’s there by herself make it special
Thank you H! :)
Awesome…wish I was as brave, look like great fun x
She has always loved climbing, now she has somewhere we can take her! Thank you! :D
Now this looks like fun!
I think my two could quite easily spend the whole day here! :D Thank you…
Love bouldering walls. We have one at our local pack holiday home and no, no helmits or harness necessary.
So refreshing. One of the things I don’t miss about the UK! :D Thank you K! :)
Oh wow I would love to do this myself!!
I am going to try next time too! Thank you! :D
Cool – my eldest would love that (probably wouldn’t be allowed in the UK without harnesses all that ‘elf and safety!)
Huge crash mats take away the need for safety stuff, and it’s not too high, but I know what you mean! :D Thank you…
wow that looks like so much fun xx
Thanks Wendy! (:
Brilliant! I know I say it every week but – great composition. My girls love climbing walls too :)
Thank you. Mine often make me feel like climbing walls, I will remember this for next time! :D
Wicked!
I’d really like to have a go at one of those walls myself sometime you know – fancy joining me?
Would love that. We must have a wine interval though, sure that will help! :D
Oh I totally love this, much get my shoes out and do the same! Next time you should get up that wall!
I might just do that! Thanks Gemma! :)
That looks like great fun, will have to find one to set my 10 year old loose on!
I highly recommend it! :D Thanks Sonya! :)
This looks like a lot of fun!
Thank you, we will be going back! :D
Wow – go girl! Looks lots of fun.
She would have quite happily spent the whole day here I think! Thank you! :D
Yay! That’s what I like to see. Getting them started young ;-) Great fun and great for tiring them out isn’t it?
So funny, I thought of you yesterday! They LOVED it! This place was probably too basic for you guys though! :D
now this looks like fun!
Thanks Jaime, she had a blast (as did her little bro. who was at a party here!) :D
What an amazing looking wall, It looks great fun
Thanks! She had a great time! :D
Oh wow, looks like great fun :)
Thanks Claire! :)
Great photo. Looks like nice sturdy steps (I’m sure that’s not the right word!) to climb up.
Thank you. It’s in a huge warehouse full of climbing walls. Heaven for the kids! :D
So much fun, I hope she had a great time :-)
She loved it. Thank you (moaning about her hands aching today though! :D)!
That looks like great fun :)
I kind of wish I had got some shoes and joined her. She spent ages spidering about! :D Thank you! :)
