THE OFFICIAL STOKED THREAD! 8-Jan-2009 At 11:27:38 AM capt_mulch

Stoked that I'm still in the Solomons. I've had a bit of work on reorganising the UNICEF computer network in Gizo, but bummed that the surf finally decided to come up whilst I've had work on. I've found some great bouldering here, but have'nt been able to get out of family / work commitments to roam too far and wide. I've been hanging out and working with Peter Wopereis (known here as Two Metre Peter), the brother of the late Anton Wopereis who was a well known Kiwi mountaineer - he's lent me a great book of NZ mountaineering stories and is somewhat of a climber himself.

The most route finding I've been doing - which path to take around all those puddles without getting the sandals muddy??

Morning surf check on the side of the road

My desire - Kolombangara. Old shield volcano. 1800 metres from sea to summit.
