I always wear a helmet both climbing and especially when belaying. Although when you climb you always try and not knock any rocks down onto your belayer, but sometimes you do, and sometimes what you think was a small marble sized stone turns out to be the size of fist. Weriibee Gorge is one place I always wear a helmet, even when walking at the bottom..with so much loose stuff, who knows what might get knocked off from above.
For a $100 and a bit of inconvenience, a small price to pay to insure your head. |
