Summer days
I have decided I am over summer, and psyched for the cooler months to arrive! The only thing is as soon as June arrives (or even May).....Everyone will be complaining their fingers are too cold and that climbing in the mountains is rediculous!(harder to find belay partners) :-o This will more than likely result in migrating down south to a little piece of paradise called Nowra....I enjoy the climbing here very much and look forward to sending some hard routes.
The past month has been quite interesting for me, having to put in quite a lot of effort for only small gains on rock. However I still find this beneficial to my training and my overall development as a climber. I managed to send a route called Tsunami(29) on Wave Wall and also Tripe(30) at Boronia Pt....these routes are both test pieces and are quite solid at the grade. Although I didn't find these routes extremely difficult I spent more time on them than I should have, meaning there is room for improvement. It would be a frustrating time of year for all climbers I would imagine......But I am a sweat monster and the humidity kills me!
Evan and I have spent a fair amount of time at Boronia Pt lately, If it gets a good easterly wind it can be quite pleasant on a summer afternoon. I have a few more routes that I would like to send at this crag over the next month or two.
That HD video Camera is still coming :-)

South Central & PC
Nowra
Scotty has been snapping off some pics lately, made a brief trip to PC, South Central and Rosies to get some shots and check out the summer conditions....apart from being eaten alive by mosquitos the conditions were actually unreal! Can't wait for winter and the new Nowra guide!
