I agree, besides a couple of the foot holds from the vertical wall would be REALLY challenging handholds on the 45 :-)

One question that I would also raise is what are the options for a walkway between the 30 and 45 degree walls, nothing fancy just some raised duck board to keep people out of the gravel. Who would need to give permission/consent? Do other people agree with the idea? any ideas on cost?

At some point someone from VCC/Burnely team are going to show up on this thread - please don't take any of the above at criticism, I would just like to contribute ideas/effort/$ to maximise the facility.
