Hello there people who havent made plans for the long weekend and want to seize the opportunity to get up to Buffalo!
Looking for anyone who is keen or knows someone who might be keen or already heading up there on either wed night (March 6th) or thurs night from Melbourne.. my mate is planning to come up friday but thats just too late i reckon. I can drive. Will look to climb a bunch of classic multipitch routes up to grade 18. Could second harder than that but that would be my limit on trad lead. Easier classics im quite happy with though for sure.
Anyway hopefully there is someone around who understands how good this trip could be or at the very least a good way to kill a couple of days.
Also if there are people out there who cant make this one let me know and maybe we could organise a trip out of Melbourne another time..
Cheers
Tim

hi Tim
I am driving to Grampians from Brisbane 7th March
willing to climb there, but the day I arrive will be 8 in the night.
how long will you stay there? I can stay as long as you can.
18 trad lead is ok for me and I got trad gears and rope as well.
Cheers,
Leo

Hi Tim,

I missed this round, but I'm keen to go climbing any other time.

I can second grade 19 comfortably and 20's as well (might add a couple of falls on the way up though) and I have started trad this christmas. I have done grades 12 so far and feel ok to try something a tad harder next time but I still need to build my confidence.

I'm good at slab and fingery/technical climbs, I'm working on improving my overhangs at the moment as it is my week point.

Let me know if you're interested, I can do Araps, Grampians or Buffalo, I'm based in St Kilda east.

Cheers

Sofie
