Average Rating = 2.00/5 Past the hard part on Exposition

The start is pretty awkward, but once on the wall things get much better. Lots of small bomber wires and big jugs. Photo by Yan

One interesting move, a couple of good pieces, and you're ready to pull around the roof. Don't let appearences fool you, it is actually very very easy. Photo by Yan

I was feeling a bit awkeward here, but once I got the fingerlock above the roof, it was all good. The crack to the left is Hangman, and to my right is Perigrinus and Flying Buttress (respectively l. to r.). Photo by Robo

Dave on Bogus at the Cave.

Average Rating = 3.50/5 Dave on Bogus at the Cave.

This is my mate Dave on Bogus. I cant remember the grade. But it is really hard. The cave is a awesome place. The grades go from 25/26 through to i think 7 grade 32's. With a couple of projects that are said to be harder.

The glint of cams on Yardarm

Average Rating = 3.00/5 The glint of cams on Yardarm

At this point I was still enjoying this route, and looking forward to the wider section where I would be able to use some of my bigger gear. Too bad I had forgotten how greasy it is in that section. Photo by Robo

The begining of Buttress Corner culminates in this rather strenuous stem/jam. I wasn't feeling very strong today. Photo by Neil

The best rock in the Port Hills

Average Rating = 0.00/5 The best rock in the Port Hills

A (mostly) full view of Gibraltar Rock. Right is the 'main face'. Left is the 'minor face'. Though small, this crag has some of the best friction of any crag in the PHs. The routes are great, but anything 20+ is very necky.

The North Face of Shag Rock

Average Rating = 0.00/5 The North Face of Shag Rock

It is actually a nice looking line, but the rock is kinda friable. The cracks definitely need to be cleaned up a bit to safely hold pro.

The North West corner/face of Shag Rock

Average Rating = 0.00/5 The North West corner/face of Shag Rock

This is probably the best route on Shag Rock. Too bad it is so loose and covered in pigeon poo at the top.
