Hey,
I'm going to be in Melbourne from tomorrow until Sunday, and want to go down and check out the new Burnley wall at some point.
I'd rather not just hang out there by myself - so is there a time when there is often some people around?
When is a good time to go generally? (if you're more interested in hanging around, checking things out, bullsh*tting, rather than serious training).

Probably after lunch on weekends, from 2ish.
I turned up at 7pm last night, chatted to a few and met some others I hadn't seen there before. I think on weeknights, from about 5ish would be fine.

P.S. Footholds on vertical wall are v.greesy, bring a wire brush if you've got one and help maintain them. Mark any spinners with chalk near the blackboard, and the people who kindly maintain the wall should sort them out (you can't do it from the outside). It can get quite busy on the weekend, so late afternoons and mornings are better if you want breathing space. Have fun!

Alternatively, I hear there is Lactic Factory on studley st. Great bouldering for 10-12 dollars.

That place really needed some lighting last time I was there in the evening. Has any been put in?
