I have it on good authority that the mag is now in all the Melbourne gear shops (as of Friday afternoon).

Can I make a suggestion for a theme for an upcoming issue? How about an 'obsession' theme, with articles about people who have become obsessed with climbing a particular route. Lots of articles with depressing failures, excillerating succesess etc etc. For me, I like reading articles with emotion and a bit of a 'white knuckle, sweaty hand' feel. Anyway, something to think about.

Another sterling effort boys and girls.

Crux makes for great toilet reading. There is so much in it, that it lasts quite a few sittings.

Just finished the entertaining article by Sick Nutter on the Munro Street woodies. Top job. I didn't know that someone buffed like a condom full of eels could even read, yet alone put pen to paper.

Don't forget the Pimp My Woodie comp for the next Crux mag, send in your images to woodieworx (at) woodieworx.com and you could win a load of holds and get your woodie featured in the next Crux and online.

There have been some stunner's so far but I know there are more out there. At the very least your home wall could be published online.

The CRUX Red Chili Hunt Competition is open!

Log onto cruxmag.com.au and get started tracking down the nine mystery climbs dotted all around Australia. There are heaps of great Red Chili prizes on offer, including shoes, shirts and other nick-nacks. It’s a first in first wins situation. All the details and the rules are on the website. We’ll be updating the pictures with the winning photos as the areas get unearthed, starting on Monday morning. Good luck and happy hunting!

We have our first winner! The identity of Be A Robot For Jesus at Queensland's Kangaroo Point has been unearthed.

There are still 8 climbs to find all over Australia. Get into the action here.

Holy moly, I know where 1, 4 and 6 are. Wonder if the prize is worth 5 hours of driving. Seems unlikely, but then I do get free petrol and a work car!

Number 3 & 5 are taken. The rest are still open... Surely someone from Nati can guess the easy one!

I've figured out 4 of them, not counting 2 that are solved, but some of these places are far from home!

#1 has been unearthed by Bomber!

There is still 6 to go...

There is one in Victoria, South Aust, West Oz, Tassie and two in New South Wales....

Tassie one has gone. (Nice work Owen!)

There is still two NSW, one VIC, one WA and one SA photo. The Victorian one is easy - I'm sure someone from this forum was up there last weekend!
