Becky took Climbing 101 at Stone Gardens in Bellevue, WA, on Friday evening.  She learned how to tie into her harness with a Figure 8 knot and how to belay another climber with a Air Traffic Controller (ATC) belay device. Then she climbed a 40 ft. wall while being belayed. Watch the full video of Becky climbing here.
