Hi Guys,

I'm visiting some friends in Mt Macedon and stumbled across this crag whilst out on a walk yesterday up to the Memorial Cross.

Long shot but it looks cool and I've got a free day tomorrow: anyone around and up for a climb!?

I'm over from the UK so travelling light - got harness, boots & very minimal rack, would need to borrow other stuff.

Make sure you take some warm clothes, it gets bloody cold up there. Then again you are from the UK..!

I spend my winters bouldering on the gritstone, anything about 5deg c I start to complain about the friction :)

The snow can really help pad out the landings for the highballs too...

Surprised by the number of cars in the car park on Saturday afternoon with the freezing southerly blowing!

I bet they were equally surprised to see a man on a bike with such a wind!

Nothing that is on topic in a rock climbing forum...

I had an ITT at Newham Saturday morning. And because I was out that way I did two repeats of the north side to the Cross return for training afterwards. ;-)
