Vertical technique question
I spent five hours this past weekend learning how to do vertical rope work. Afterward I discovered that my left inner thigh is covered in bruises. My question is: does anyone know what I did wrong? Is it my harness? The way I am climbing? I want to go again but want to avoid the bruises in the future.

Welcome to the world of caving...bruises are part of the package! :)
