Hi Fish Boy,
Stoked to hear your heading up to the buff. Myself and a couple of other Geelongians will be up there so probably seeya. Not sure where your used to climbing but for your first time there just be aware that the buff requires a bit of a different head space than say Arapilies. If you can between now and then get out to the youies and practise sticking body parts in granite and standing on micro edges a good distance above your last bolt i would well recommend it. Good idea to start up on the plateu places like Cathdral (agree with Neil Sultan and Maharagah(spelling) are awesome) the Horn for the Pintle and a sunset ascent of Peroxide blonde. Check out old threads on Angels it's a bomb day out but take plenty of tape and wear socks or tape your ankles and get an early start. Also take lots of water and food. Caligula is an awesome grade 18. Heaps of epics and adventures to b had. Have a ball.
