Tim - could you link to this over a the backcountry forum on www.ski.com.au? It would be well received. Nice collection. The first ascent of The Castle is particularly wonderful - I have tried (and retreated) from one of the Castle routes (even this seems long ago now, close to 20 years!). They are large, intimidating, VERY old school and the rock is, err, closer to sand than stone in many areas! Starting well off the valley floor two moves up appears to be a hundred pitches in the air. After we pulled a number of large pebbles/stones from the sandstone we determined something about discretion and valour and retreat.... Still fun and I recommend as worthwhile to those of an adventurous spirit.
