Today was the first trip out that felt like a big group, there seems to be a growing keenness to get onto rock by the local south west group. It was supposed to be a cold start after a clear sky night, followed by blue skies and light winds. So Rongy and I were aContinue reading “A Packed Crag”

Getting over it
You may recall that last weekend I was not at my best, but that said Rongy and I still had a great session at the Northern Blocks with me following up every route. This week I’ve been a bit up and down, Lisa suggested I may be experiencing a dose of manapause or possibly worseContinue reading “Getting over it”
Off the beaten track
Rongy and I headed out on Sunday for a bit of fun at Wilyabrup. We decided to get there early, so as we were driving west on Metricup Road five minutes from our destination I could see, in the rear view mirror, the sun starting to inch it’s way above the horizon. The sky seemedContinue reading “Off the beaten track”
Take rope!
This is a long one and I make no excuses, in fact I took a bunch of images out as I typed away so it could have been longer! So best make yourself a brew if you intend to read the whole thing… For the climbers amongst you if you are keen to check outContinue reading “Take rope!”
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”
