Correction to Eastern Victoria Guide & New Route

I have a couple of corrections and a new route to report for Mt Pilot.

Page 104= So This Is Aid Climbing 20m M6 (as appears on page 105) is actually 5m left of Stump Jumper. (I think I have already emailed this?).

Page 104= Big Fatty 8m 17 and Little Fatty 8m 17 are on a block approximately 15m left of Stump Jumper (not the published 50m)

Page 104= *New Route* Bakery Wall - Mt Pilot
A Good Day - In, 17m Grade 13
Much nicer than it first appears.
4m left of So This Is Aid Climbing, journey to rear of corridor/offwidth for 5m.
Variety of techniques to daylight hole, with good pro all the way.
Exit daylight hole and continue up corner crack for 3m
A good belay well back.

A Secomb, S Gordon, R Kerr 09/04/06
(Cracks at rear of daylight hole have been done on Top Rope)

Page 104= Big Fatty 8m 17
Start 8m Left of A Good Day - In.
etcetera............

Page 113= Lone Ranger Boulder
This boulder is actually 500m from the Beechworth-Chiltern Rd.
Further more it is 200m past Green Break Rd (a dirt track)
heading North towards the Fire Tower/ carpark.
NOT the carpark as the guide suggests,
(from the carpark it is 2.7km.)

Just to clarify, the guidebook says the boulder is 500m from the carpark, when it is actually 500m from the Beechworth-Chiltern Rd. When you're coming in from the road, it is visible on the right about 200m past Green Break Rd (which is well signposted).

I also notice that Andrew made a little mistake too. A Good Day - In is actually 4m left of "So This Is Aid Climbing". So from right to left the routes are... Stump Jumper, So This Is Aid Climbing, A Good Day - In, Big Fatty, Little Fatty. Andrew, you might like to confirm this.

I hope you've got it sorted out now. This months Argus is ready to go to the printers later today.
