A modest proposal |

I like the idea of the skull & cross bones symbol employed by some guide books (eg NorthWest Vic) beside the climb name / grade. Though this didn't stop Adio (who hadn't looked at the guide) leading up the couch sized, fully detached flake of "It Moves!" at Melvilles Caves a couple of weekends ago. I mentioned the documented "Spectre of Death" just as he was lackbacking the upper portion of said block and discovering that it does indeed live up to it's namesake. :-) Fortunately I was above setting a belay on another route and tossed him a quick toprope.
So, maybe if the route is completely asking for a coffin, such a symbol and the lack of stars would be enough. Otherwise words like "poorly protected" in the description are ample warning for me. |
