Two spotters are required. Using a ladder on The Wall with Belay requires constant supervision from two directions: one spotter stays with the climber to help guide movements and maintain communication, while the second spotter watches a different area (such as the ladder itself) to provide immediate assistance if a grip or rung slips or if the climber needs stabilization. This redundancy helps ensure the climber remains safe throughout the ascent, something a single spotter can’t reliably manage given the activity’s angles, distance, and potential for movement.
