Abseiling & Climbing at Wied Ix-xaqqa
Ryan all locked up, on Xaqqa cliffs
On the 31st of January we went out for our first abseil of the year at Wied Ix-Xaqqa, Limits of Siggiewi. We rigged two abseil exits and a climb giving the ventures ample opportunity to try out various techniques on the cliff face including practicing falling, locking, bottom safety, forward rappel and more. We were once again joined by our abseil instructor and supervisor Andrew.
