“To learn the ropes” means to master the basics of anything. We have good reason to believe it started on a ropes course.

The activity requires you to coordinate and work together; to take the initiative to help and be helped. The hours fly by as you build self-confidence and trust in others.

Advanced gear and safety equipment keep you and the environment safe. You are secure in a harness, safely arresting falls, so the only way to go is up.
