ICE AT BULLER - SAT 21/08

This is a call to arms for anyone who is keen to go up Mt Buller via West Ridge and take a look at climbing either lead or set up a top rope on the waterfall if conditions warrant or do some Mountaineering type routes.

Look to leave melb say 4:45am Sat and leave the climbing about 3:30 - 4:00pm
I have ice gear in terms of screws and stakes and have 1 spare AX but the catch is I will need a lift of course I will pay for fuel etc....

cheers

Ahh c'mon BS. Your just looking for someone to take the fall if you come across a pack of wild dogs...

Heh, heh, heh.

Watch this space Bob!
My partner and I were planning on walking/climbing the ridge to the summit and checking the area out this sat or sun (weather permitting as we've never been).

Hey man, that sounds awesome, where abouts was your mate going to stay? I was thinking of heading back on the saturday night. I've never climbed at buller either so won;t be a huge help in that department! Tell him to give me a buzz if he is keen m.0408676696
