To those that are suggesting everyone climb without chalk, have you ever tried to climb in hot and humid Queensland in summer? I think Neil can attest to the fact that climbing anywhere in Qld in the height of summer is a little crazy at the least, but to climb without chalk is close to utter insanity. I have climbed in Vic and found that I used much less than half of the chalk I would in Qld. Those calling for a ban on chalk should perhaps expand their field of vision. I realise that this is a Vic climbing site and I am from Qld and as such my comments are perceived as both irrelevant and archaic, but surely a more open minded stance can be adopted.
