I guess the question is then...

What routes / styles do we really want to see more pics off?

How about a few shots of people in the process of bruising their little fingers. Heaven knows there’s
enough of that going on.

Hi All
Back in Sydney and on a more solid stone . . . Trip report coming on . . .

Sorry for the friends no-show on the new route action . . .
Hope our 'Princess option' of the repeat was good enough . . .

Would love to get any photos that anyone took . .

Cheers Macca

MISSING QUICKDRAWS!

Who has my draws (about 10 of them) off Invisible Fist?? I put them up on Saturday and then someone aksed if they could have a go - i said yes providing i got them back at the end of the weekend. I believe someone removed them on sunday - but i have had no contact with this person. Without them i'm stuck on 6 bolt clip-ups! I'm also missing a green and purple camalot.

aah Gilgamesh was a little burly for the 2 day trip, Ben did pretty well, finding good ways to do the hard
bits but still no tick.

I would have thought after his warm-up on Serpentine, Ben would have had enough left in the tank to knock off Gilgamesh as well.

TR- Shai-Hulud, Upper Spurt (said nonchalantly; like it was Upper Shipley)

It was the best of climbs, it was the worst of climbs;
It was the climb of my life, it was the climb or my life;
It was the reason of my discontent, and I was content with the reasons;
It was the only place I could possibly be and all my climbing lead me to that point . . .

Full report in Crux . . .
