I haven't posted in a while as ive been in britain sampling their famous gritstone, but my return to australia is coming soon. Basically after I get back a few of us from canberra are making the pilgrimage to arapilies for a few months. On the way down however there are plans for a week long stop at buffalo hanging around on the north wall.

I thought I would mention this as a public trip but realistically, if you want to come it has to be as a independent pair or three. We will probably not do a single route but rather hang around and do different pitches on different days, sampling from ozy, gumtree, caulfield. We may stay on big grassy (+ ledges) or we may just set up portaledges up at gledhill biv. Also there has been talk of rapping in with all the gear/beer. Ideally I would like to spend a week on th north wall, as then I hope to convince some in canberra to come for the first and last weekends of the week.

Basically as there was talk a while back of a portaledge gathering I thought id post this, and if anyone else wanted to organise being there around that time, it would be awesome. If you are interested please post here or contact me > max.fourman@netspeed.com.au <. Also let me know what route you would do or whether you would rap in and sample pitches. I think we are going for holden caulfield, but I'd love to redo some of the Ozy direct pitches my partner led last time.
