Hi,
I've been living in the U.K for the past year and started gym climbing around 6 months ago. I can currently climb to 6C.
What would you consider to be the classic boulder problems in Victoria? I'm heading home to Melbourne next month and can't wait to start bouldering outdoors.
Cheers,
C

Unfortunately not the best time to want to go bouldering in Victoria!

Head to Arapiles while you still can.
Just a few from the top of my head. Golden streak V2, 3 moves to Glory V4, Pinch arete V4, Attack a Headless chook V5, Around the World V5.
Get the most recent best of Arapiles guide with the boulder problems and just follow your nose. Lots of nice problems to try.
The areas open in the Grampians is greatly reduced, but good lines to try are still there. Buy the Grampians bouldering guide for those.

Around Melbourne there are some good lines too, though I may be a little biased. Check thecrag for Mt Alexander, Cobaw (area unfortunately is largely undocumented), Black Hill and even Camel's Hump once it warms up again.
