Allow me the pleasure. I was at Buffalo sometime around the end of 2008 (I'm sure Clarky can provide the exact date), climbing at Wall of China near the Horn. I was climbing with 'D', who I'd only met a couple of hours previous. Looking up anxiously at the forthcoming crux, while on the belay ledge of pitch 2, I was faced with a desperate urge to crap. Thank god there was a small gum tree and some dirt there! But the ledge wasn't that big, and poor D was within arms length of a stranger taking a dump.

When I'd finished burying the offending turd, wiped my ass with a gum leaf and pulled up my pants, I turned back to D, suitably red faced. Imagine my embarrassment as a rousing cheer rose from the tourist lookout opposite the gully, and someone yelled 'I always wondered how you guys did that!!'

Good times. Amazingly, we actually went climbing together several times after that incident!!

Anyway alls well that ends well. Nobody harmed, and I onsighted my first 19 (Lucinda *).

Now, back to fire haters pushing their agenda, and linking the park looking wonderful with increased regulation.... after a year of good rainfall. Actually, screw that noise - I'm taking Kieren's advice and sending Parks something myself, with photos and facts.
