It is a tragic day for all climber/s and non climbers both in Australia and the world. I know that Col looked forward every Friday when it was knock off time to head out to the crags and start bolting or exploring areas only the brave at heart would dare to adventure. We all thought he was mad but in reality he was a pure genius in the profession of climbing. He shared his home,his heart and knowledge of climbing and would take you to places that you only dreamed of. He didn't want his name up in lights he just lived for climbing and wanted others to share his passion. It didn't matter if you were a first time beginner or a grade 32 he always made you feel special. It wasn't only about the rocks it was also about exploring and living life to the fullest. He had so much to give and so much he wanted to achieve. He is a legend in his own right! Those that know him will never forget him and those that have heard of him will never forget him. Rest in peace good friend. I hope there is a whole heap of climbing and adventure wherever you are!
