TR Echo Point, You can't stop the music (19) 11-Jan-2013 At 5:34:49 AM pmonks

Great TR!

I particularly liked this quote: "Like most ground up efforts, a fun adventure but not necessarily a great climb." The one and only significant new route I've done ground up (down at Mt Hay with Hayden Brotchie) was one of the best days of climbing I've ever had, but I wouldn't recommend the route to anyone (well, except for a pitch here or there).

Makes me wonder if there are areas that should be left completely undocumented, so that anyone who wants to can go and have a new route adventure, whether it's really a new route or not? Mt Hay seems like a great place for this kind of experience, although the documentation cat is well and truly out of that bag now...
