Ghost, on this Site was Hex.
He constantly found himself with time out temporarily banned from posting due to upsetting others and the Moderators, and constantly reinvented his username identity, but was always anonymous.

He was obsessed with Kim Carrigan and Australian climbing history in general, and very knowledgeable on the subject.
He frequented the USA Climbing Sites during his periodic bans from here.

Some people speculated that Hex was Tasmanian based as he is a supporter of saving the Tarkine.
He hasn’t surfaced here in any form for a long time.
That’s my 5c worth. Others may know more.

Someone else that hasn’t been seen much on this Site since suffering a horrific climbing multiple injuries accident while leading a climb in the Blueys is Macca.
Macca climbed a lot with John Ewbank and has a truckload of climbing gear that probably includes some of John’s old pieces. He is active on the Blue Mtns Facebook climbing Site and may have further info for you?
