Top roping at Buffalo 19-Jan-2011 At 3:02:15 PM Li

My second ever outing was at Buffalo. We top-roped something on Chinamans Wall (I think that's what it's called) opposite the carpark hut at the Horn. My partner was an experienced climber so I didn't feel too daunted, although it did feel very exposed and we had to abseil down to the base of the climb. The grades weren't that high and I had a ball playing around on the wall. We then went over to the Monolith and he led another climb which I tried to hack my way up, but being a 21 it was a little too ambitious for me....had a couple of falls, scraped the shit out of my arms/legs on the rough granite, but had a lot of fun. I think Buffalo is a beautiful area and I've been back there a few times.
