Sissy By Night

Headed down to sissy for a night session last night with Phil Neville visiting from Victoria. Since it was Phil's first taste of sissy we did a bit of a circuit of lots of the classics up to V5. Phil managed a nice send of the frustrating classic Vitamin C v6 & I managed to fall off the last moves of both Mavis v8 & Spooged v10.

Good Times, hopefully we can get back there next time he's down.

Dark Forrest

Had a great day bouldering on Saturday at a newish spot I've been developing called 'Dark Forrest'. Stu Ellis & Simon Stevens from Sydney were keen to check it out so we met in the morning and headed out.

We got through a fair bit of the stuff I'd established last year and the boys also established a few new problems. Stu cleaned and climbed a beautiful face he named 'A taste of ants' which will be the new classic warm up as well as repeating 'Funky Monkey V5 . Simon established a desperate mantle type problem that reminded me of Macedomia at the front line. It will probably be around V5 or 6? In the monkey cave he also repeated 'Trip master monkey v7' & 'chunky monkey v6'.

I managed to climb a couple of juggy roof lines I'd been eyeing off too.

Hopefully we'll be heading back soon, lots of stuff to do

Dark forrest is located on a walking trail just off the hair pin on Phegans Bay Road. I will try to get a guide up soon for the established problems.

Blog Launch

I've decided to start this blog to keep track of some of the developments for the bouldering here on the central coast also to hopefully share some of the great rock we have here and what I've been getting up to. Hopefully I'll start to get some guides up here soon too.

Thanks
Dan
