Rock climbing has been on my to-do list for years and I'm happy that my first climb was with Raglan Rock! Gareth was knowledgeable, kind and encouraging. He made our first visit to NZ quite memorable. I'm hooked and hope to join a climbing gym soon! Thanks for the inspiration Gareth. Hope to see you again.
