In lead climbing, the climber ties into the rope and clips it into pre-installed bolts (sport climbing) or uses their own gear (trad climbing) as they ascend. Unlike top rope, the rope starts at the bottom with the climber. Lead climbing is an exciting progression for climbers looking to push their limits physically & mentally.
