I can’t get past this point on the trail. It’s like a 3 or 4 meter foot vertical drop with nothing to grab onto but the rope. I tried to do the thing where you put your feet on the wall and go down backwards but they slipped on the rocks and I only managed to keep myself from falling by holding hold onto the rope with pure panic strength, then I turned back.

Is it simply a skill issue or is there a technique to it? I’m also usually the only one on the trail, so I’ve never seen anyone else do it either.
