Amusingly, like a lot of spam, there's no contact details...

I've never understood how that was supposed to work.

hi! sorry to hear about your friends. it would be pointless if we make people responsible for out gear. of course if you forget it some where or screw up the rope by your stupidity, but if someone take the quick draws from your project its the risk we can handle.

Ii know its not for everybody, but i thought that for people coming in for a week or two, wanting to get the most out of it, not worry about anything, it could be helpful specially for some good price. the price i am getting on is 150€-180€ per person for 6 days climbing, accommodation, equipment, transport, camping gear, guide/leader.

by the way, there is no problem to go anywhere you want in Spain, hope in future i will be able to organize people who will be able to do it all around Europe but so far there are no money and i have to do it all myself.

anyway could you suggest some good way how to advertise in Australia. (big climbing web page, magazin, ...)

if you ever go to Europe let me know. Ciao Jan

Im in the non spam side...its a unique service that might appeal to people on this board...hes not selling nike shoes knock offs after all.

As for advertising for options try these....

Thecrag.com ... you can sponsor a section.... might I suggest spain....and make it more prominant by filling out gaps in the guide.

verticallifemag.com.au ..... australian online ezine

rock.com.au ..... australias only printed climbing mag

Hope that helps

Interesting and certainly useful concept. Best of luck! As many of us get older and more time poor services such as this would be pretty useful i reckon.

"Time poor" is an interesting euphemism.

Maybe I should run a rock climbing taxi for the grampians for the overseas visitors... Pickup at Stayplton every morning and drive to where ever..

€150 - €180 per person is excellent value for a service like this. It would be ideal for someone without a partner and with only a few days spare to go climbing. Good luck with it.

There are plenty of overseas climbers who only come for a week that would use a service like that I reckon! Many of them end up staying in Halls Gap hostels and have great difficulty getting to the good areas. The Watchtower isn't exactly Taipan Wall.
