I always say this but scrambling downhill is much harder then uphill. I’ve gotten stuck in dangerous places on mountains and cliffs because the way up is doable and the way down is a different beast. Great video by the way. It gives me confidence in my future journeys.

Why not recommend or require climbing helmets to protect against falling rock???

Very helpful. Any pointers on downclimbing esp. whether back to rock or facing rock?

This was sooooo helpful by explaining in not only a demonstrative way but also in simple basic instructions.

Hey but if I'm backpacking, how do we do this with a big back pack? Or do we leave our packs at camp or what?

These were excellent tips. Everything the instructor said made sense in light of my experience.

For a 61 year old who is relatively new to this sort of hill walking those tips were very helpful..

I'm also curious to know what boots you're wearing! They look like mountaineering boots - La Sportiva Trango? I just recently purchased the women's Trango for both hiking and mountaineering, wanted to know your feelings on their hiking ability (are they good for trekking long distances? how do they perform on the ice?).
