Arapiles accident on Seven News tonight 29-Jan-2008 At 9:43:31 PM Richard

I recall seconding this climb the first weekend ever climbing - I would not say it was easy. So I was curious if it would be really easy or still hard when I lead it years later. It wasn't easy!! In fact, I fell of the start of the second pitch also. However, there is a dam good crack there, that takes a nice fat nut (which we never got out..). At least I knew it was going to be hard, so knew I needed to place some good gear .. if you where exepecting grade 10 gym climbing, you'd be in for a bad surprise. I suspect if you can hand jam, and are tall, it probably is grade 10, or maybe just one move above that grade. But if you learn't in the gym ...

Hope they get better,
