Hi Mike, being new to the Blue Mountains I have to ask why mulitpitch isn't an option for most climbers?? I must admit, the climbs I have done so far have been short sport routes - eek....did I say that!! Actually, I've never done any sport climbing before and it's been good to work on my technique. However, I LOVE multipitch and am missing it, being used to climbing at Araps and Buffalo. There doesn't seem to be a geat deal around in the lower grades, or am I just not looking properly? Cheers Li
