Highly customisable and easy to setup. Use templates to control appearance and content.

Simple!

Made my way to Mt Arapiles again over the Queen’s Birthday long weekend for a bit of climbing. The last time I went up there was during the Easter break. The weather was warmer back then.

Now, it’s somewhat cooler with night temperatures dropping to about 2°C. Kind of chilly if you don’t pack a down sleeping bag and jacket.

The good thing about camping this time of the year is the lack of fire restrictions, so it was nice just to sit in front of a roaring bonfire at the end of the day.

However, waking up mornings was no mean feat. Outside the tent, you could see mist rolling through the campsite. By about 9am, after breakfast, the mist would have cleared and we make our way to the climbs we have planned for that day. It’s always a good hike, just to warm up.

Although the nights and early mornings were freezing, the days were usually clear, with blue skies. It was ideal conditions for climbing - not too hot or cold, with the rock face feeling just right on the finger tips.

This trip saw me attempting Kachoong (21), Blue Hawaii (21) √, In Lemon Butter (22) and Dramp (21), amongst some others. I was quite happy with my efforts this time round. Let’s just say, by the time I got home, I felt like someone had taken a meat mallet to my body. Pain!

Can’t wait to do it all again next time!
