Well the weather's bad: lots of rain, snow at about 2,500m and humid conditions even in the dry overhangs...but it's made for some fine scenery and light conditions from time to time and I had some stuff to get done unrelated to climbing so all's good.

Went bouldering on the conglomerate at Salvan this arvo for a few hours, got rained on but decoded a few and got them sent. Late in the session got onto a 7B and nearly sent despite the aggressiveness of the rock on the fingers, good chance this one will go and it seems about right for the grade.

Forecast to be fine tomorrow so will have to see if I can russle up a partner.

Onsight: I saw Fred today for some treatment, your poster shot of Simon Mentz on the FA of the Tote is proudly displayed on the waiting room wall. He says G'Day and is going really well.
