Australian Climbing Calendar 2006

This is a very big shout out of thanks to Chockstone’s very own Josh Caple and Neil Monteith as well as all the other photographers – and climbers – who contributed and made it possible for us to start up the Australian Climbing Calendar again for 2006.

Just to quickly let people know what’s going on… this year we decided to publish two calendars for 2006. We still produced the World Climbing Calendar as normal for overseas markets but also started up a specific Australian calendar again with photographs contributed by eight different photographers — Josh and Neil amongst them. The support of these photographers has enabled us to present a diversity of climbing and Australian locations. So thanks heaps fellas!

I’d also like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to everyone who has supported the calendar in it’s various permiatations in the past. If you buy it, you’re supporting it. This support has enabled us to consider restarting the Oz calendar – something I’d always wanted to do. So thanks indeed everyone for that.

The calendars should have made it safely into most of the usual outlets by now thanks to Josh’s packaging expertise. More info here: http://www.onsight.com.au/publications/calendar06a/index.htm
Can also be ordered from here:

And I’ll add World calendar info there too in a few days.

Cheers everyone.

Oooppsss..
The alt tags that are displayed when you hover the mouse over the photo still show the descriptions for the 2005 calendar... Makes for a fun guessing game though.

I wondered when Yosemite happened to get an ocean front view.

Edit to say that this is a great initiative from you Simon, kudos to you mate.

I guess that this must fall on the "not quite SPAM" side of the fuzzy area...

1 ? where do you get granite and a lake - Tassie??
2 Tiapan wall - what's her name, Stepanie Forrester ?
3 Malcolm Matheson, Infirmity (23), The Great Wall, Moonarie
4 Araps -
5 The gallery ?
6 Space Odyssey (pitch two, 27), The Lost World, Grampians
7 Point Perp
8
9 Buffalo - Ozy, about pitch two !!

12 Sydney sea cliffs?

Have fun!!

I could only add that I think the Point Perp one is at Popeye wall, that no 11 could be at the Gonk on Freycinet and that all of them look great.

You guys are getting very warm now. Soon all you'll have left to do is spell Monique's surname correctly.

>#11 - looks like Tasman Penisula - maybe something on the Moai or nearby cliffs?
Yes. But climber, route and grade please...
