With the warmer weather, supposedly, on its way and first light getting earlier and earlier Rongy, Howsie and I have decided to once again start up a weekday before works climb. I don’t intend to record every session, as it will get a bit repetitive, but this one is warranted it is the first. OnContinue reading “Short and sharp”

21 again
It’s amazing just how many walks are dotted about the place, and I seem to be hearing about them as more people cotton on to my growing flower fetish. The most recent one being a spot out in the Wheatbelt reputedly littered with orchids, including several I have not as yet personally sighted. But thatContinue reading “21 again”
The detour
It’s been a while since Glen has been out on rock and this week he posted that he was keen to reinitiate his involvement in climbing. He also foolishly posted that last weekend he went out fishing, and left home at 4:30am. However, instead of capitalising on the chance for an early start and possibleContinue reading “The detour”
A perfect fit
Kym and I have been trying, and failing, to tee up a weekend to catch up for some time now. The wet winter and now spring we have had has not helped our cause. But this Friday I had to head to Albany for work, helping out with a workshop that ran from nine tillContinue reading “A perfect fit”
Paper flowers
Lisa and I couldn’t work out when we had last visited this spot. I didn’t think it had been too many years but my images indicate it has been ten. Crooked Brook is a great hidden gem, not too far from where Lisa works in Boyanup. A possible reason this place is kept in tip-topContinue reading “Paper flowers”
Only 16
Seeing things were going to warm up today we got down to the crag a bit earlier than previous months. It was not quite a first light for the first climb, but that will no doubt come as summer approaches. It seems with the better weather a few more of the local climbing crew wereContinue reading “Only 16”
The tipoff
At work I’m not known for mingling or sitting in the tea room to have a yarn, and can usually be found tucked away in front of my computer getting on it. Some may say I’m a little introvert and others may say antisocial, but for me I’m there to work and live my lifeContinue reading “The tipoff”
Welcome to the show
Being the last weekend of the school holidays there was every chance the roads would be chockers. Meaning that later in the day the cars would slow to a snail’s pace, as the throngs of holiday makers head back up to Perth. So it made sense to pick a place to climb that was closerContinue reading “Welcome to the show”
The things people do
This image just doesn’t do justice to the spectacle we were lucky to observe today, again due to the size of most of the flowers the colour is mostly lost amongst the foliage of the vegetation. Lisa and I have been to the Ambergate nature reserve a few times, last year we came here inContinue reading “The things people do”
Sitting pretty
Last year Lisa and I camped out at the Stirling Ranges for our anniversary at the end of October. It was a hot few days and while we did get a bit of rain to cool things off briefly, in truth it was pretty uncomfortable. But, as is always the case when we crash atContinue reading “Sitting pretty”
