Climbing is Fun
Took a rest day from snowboarding and went climbing at Hospital Flats with Mel.
It was sooo warm and sunny, it wasn't just not cold, it was actually warm! It was so nice chilling in the warm sunshine climbing a few routes with Treble Cone ski resort at the top of the snowcapped peaks in the background. I love the climbing here, it was so much fun. There isn't that many realy hard routes that I could see from a quick glance at the guide book, one or 2 extremely hard ones, but that doesn't matter, you don't need them. Walking up to the first crag from the car park I felt like a kid in the candy store, I was looking at tonnes of different lines that looked like so much fun to climb. My favourite that I got to try that day was this route up the arete of the "Tombstone" A massive 15/20m high boulder that looks like a tombstone. Sean, Carole and Julie-Anne joined us later with their cameras and being a rest day they decided to be the paparatsi or however you spell that.
I love this photo that Carole got. Thats me on my favourite route in NZ (so far)
