BB

Saturday 24th August was Global Climbing Day so it was only right to get out for a climb. However, despite the best endeavours from quite a few of the local crew the numerous plans that were hatched eventually ended with only one option. I had hoped to manage two trips out, one in the morningContinue reading “BB”

Aging

Craig recently had a big birthday, and as is tradition our presents to each other comprises getting out climbing. The weekend before his actual birthday we opened up our house for a daytime BBQ and bit of a boulder. Once he had celebrated this milestone with a quiet gathering of his family and close friends,Continue reading “Aging”

Well stoned

This morning I groggily woke up at 3am and my head and body felt weird. I wondered if it was due to what felt like a long week at work, the impending damp weather coming or maybe the single stubby of beer I had succumbed to the night before? I wasn’t sure if I’d getContinue reading “Well stoned”

Evening things up

After more rain resulting in another weekend in the shed last week I was busting to get onto some real rock. I tracked for forecast which indicating heading north was the better option. That worked well as Wiggins was home and keen to get back to Boomer Crag, up near Pinjarra, and this time hitContinue reading “Evening things up”

Socially inept

The forecast was looking good with a few clear calm days leading into and continuing for the weekend. So not to miss out on an opportunity after being holed up in the shed for the last few weeks I put the word out. The original plan was for some south coast adventures with Kym inContinue reading “Socially inept”

Recycling

After a bout of wild weather promising slightly damper conditions I put the word out there for this weekend, which didn’t look too bad. Wiggins was keen, and after I suggested I was open to a late start he promptly suggested a 7:30 meet in Capel. The timing was great as I got to seeContinue reading “Recycling”

Perfect timing

Having just been back to the UK for a quick one week visit to help sort through belongings, go on tip runs, pack boxes and dismantle furniture at my folks place, where they have lived for 40 years I still had a couple of days before I was due to go back to work. SoContinue reading “Perfect timing”

From dawn till dusk

Howsie and I made a hit list of crags to visit some two or was it three years back, the optimistic intention back then being to knock them off over the course of a year. Yesterday we had a big day out to tick one more of the list and at the rate we areContinue reading “From dawn till dusk”

Crowded House

My last email to most of you was a month back, since then I managed another solo top-rope mission and had a few weeks off. Then came Easter and the intention was to get out for a morning or two at the local crags, but that fell through so there was a last minute decisionContinue reading “Crowded House”

Couch potato

Saturday morning I was up at 5:30, not for climbing well not entirely. Elseya had a course in Perth that was due to start at 9am, so we were on the road early to make sure we got there on time. After dropping her off I headed out to the Adrenaline Vault to while awayContinue reading “Couch potato”
