Wow! Good response, cheers guys!

Certainly got a few to go at there. Always nice to get on routes recommended by people rather than just the guidebook.

Where Angels Fear is a route I'd love to do, but I'll be saving that for a while yet. Buffalo is much closer to me (near Mansfield) than the Blue Mountains so I'll get exploring up there to start with.

Thanks for the winter tips too. I've got a winter climbing trip to NZ lined up but need something closer to home to explore as well. Anyone got any tips on the best time of the season to head up to Mt Bogong for ice/neve gully lines? Presumably it would need a few freeze/thaw cycles to consolidate any recent snow - any particular weather patterns to look out for?

Thanks all, much appreciated.
