climbing partner wanted for Grampians 4/7~14/7 13-Jun-2008 At 1:38:49 PM WM

Message

I may be out there on either or both of those weekends and would be happy to swap belays at Taipan - although it's not quite a sport crag and needs some natural protection too ( http://www.climb.org.au/index.php?page=27&area_id=98 ). Send me a PM (click on the yellow envelope beside "WM") or an email (click on "WM" to find my email address). I can't climb during the week though.

If you can't find anyone before you go, I recommend that you do NOT go and camp in the Grampians and just hope to find people during the week. It is very likely that you will be stuck at an empty campsite with no climbers at all, let alone anybody who climbs 26+. You will even find it hard to hitch hike for food etc because the passing traffic is a few kilometres away from the campgrounds. Arapiles is the only place where you could arrive on your own and find climbers and transport - so if you're on your own I suggest you get the bus to Arapiles and start smooth talking people to do trips over to the Grampians with you.
