South Wharepapa Trip Saturday 21 May 2011

A great day at Froggatt. Five (5) participants in total with Matt and Jackie showing the way with some great lead climbing on Slug Wall. Every where we went we encountered Wellingtonian's - yes they had travelled all the way for a weekend of climbing! Ended up sharing Slug Wall with a group from VUTC on a training course and shared 6 top ropes. We focused on Spiny Norman (16, 6 bolts); Teenage Mutant (14, 6); Pyromania (16, 6) and Ninja (15, 6). Several attempted Snarf (17) with Jackie, Matt and John conquering this. The initial ledge proved challenging. We finished off with some lead climbing on Retour (12, 5 bolts) a nice low angle arete with good exposure.

We have decided we need to do this more often! It is a comfortable day trip, albeit a long day. We may try for another day in June if the forecast looks promising. Watch this space.

Skills Evenings

February 2010 Skills Evening - Rock Climbing, Mt Eden Quarry (Short side)

The February Skills Evening will be outdoors at the Mt Eden Quarry (short side), off Normanby Road, from about 6.00pm. For those that are not sure the location is behind the playing fields. Grades are typically 13 to 15 with some harder climbs (probably equates to 15 to 18 indoor). I will have several ropes and other gear (a $3 charge/person for rope hire will be made) include trad gear for lead climbing. Bring any gear you have. The area is suitable for top roping or lead climbing - 30+ climbs available.

Afterwards we will retire to the Cadrona Speights Ale House for food and a beer and discussion of regular climbing outings over the remainder of the summer. Potential trips include day trips to South Wharepapa or Ti Point plus possible weekend trips to South Wharepapa and Ruapehu area.

Ring or text me on 021 859 829 if you require further information (or email via the link below or b.duffy@xtra.co.nz).

Hello All,
Once again we invite you to come down to Mt Ruapehu for the annual food drop. The date is 14-15 May. The truck will arrive Saturday 9am 14 May.

While we are there, willing bodies are much appreciated to change the window stays upstairs. The rubers have all been redone. We will also be putting washed sheets and curtains back on the beds and windows. Other than that we are pretty ship shape. Any volunteers, please send an email to schroder@vodafone.co.nz

As usual, we will provide food and drink - just bring yourselves. We are after about 20 people.

If you would like to offer transport, please do it here so others can see. I will be co-ordinating closer to the day.

Ta!
