Best
- 6 weeks of ice climbing in Canada, culminating in climbing Polar Circus (WI5, 700m)
- onsighting Skink at Arapiles (an amazing climb!)
- ticking "ANZAC Highway Amble" and "Punching the Pussy" at Norton Summit (both 24)
Worst
- Dad passing away from Pancreatic Cancer
- Having my planned year of climbing in the US and Canada (Indian Creek, Yosem, Bugaboos etc) interupted by Dad's illness (obviously relatively insignificant, but still disappointing)
- Not getting onto Ozymandias at my recent first visit to Buffalo because my partner lost his nerve just before we were planning to abseil in |
