I did a 10-day TMC with Bill Atkinson a few years back too, can't recommend him enough.
I found the course itself frustratingly slow if you have plenty of experience moving fast on multipitch trad, but still felt that it was a great very basic foundation for getting into the hills. Like Mike though, if I had the money/time over again I would just book Bill as a private guide with a climbing partner, I recokn I would have learnt a LOT more and gotten a lot more done. I'd also book an avy course for the same trip. |
