I'm still around and enjoying the lively debate I inadvertently kicked up. I've climbed a pretty good bit in Europe already, northern Spain, France, Germany, Italy, and Greece so I'd rather go someplace different. I've also spent a lot of time at the Red and climbing in the deeper South so I'm well versed with sandstone. That being said, the pictures that I've seen of the Grampians and Arapalies certainly make it look more impressive than the Red (at least in terms of setting if nothing else).
Thanks again for everyone's input, it continues to be very helpful! |
