Its all one pitch stuff, wouldn't be worth going any higher.

i can't find it on the net but there's a shot in the current Alpinist of Alex huber on some monster route on the Tre Cime. Took a while to dawn on me that it could only have been taken from a helicopter. mental.

Is it the cover shot?  If so I think the route is Pan Aroma.

Might be here:

Thought it probably wouldn't be, they never put the really good shots online straight off, otherwise nobody would read the actual magazine  :)

too high up for bouldering so I guess it's gotta go in the chuffing thread:

The lack of slack spoils that picture for me.  Shame.

The holds must be even bigger than they look if that's only 7b!

 :off:

Horizontal climbing on jugs: if anyone wants to train for this they've just finished the new tiny corner at Leeds wall where the campus board used to be to these specifications. Of course the climbing is marginally spoiled by the possibility of bridging between the sidewalls if you wanted to...

seen them building that and it looks a bit pointless... what was wrong with the campus board?

Absolutely nothing. A simple case of fixing something that wasn't broken. I cannot bring myself to mention the proposed new location.  :thumbsdown:

What you're not looking forward to showing off your campussing skills to the entire wall!?

I agree that new bit of wall is a waste of time and i thought, even with the occasional dabbage on the walls, it was good to have the campus board tucked out of the way to allow focus.

Whilst I look forward to once again schooling Leeds with some flamboyant campii, I am not looking forward to scraping some poor unfortunate from the underside of my foot.

Still to be confirmed but the ugly rumour is that, if you imagine the double cave as a huge pair of arsecheeks, the campusboard will be occupying the central thong region(the pillar) Standing there on a thursday evening watching how busy the wall is just made me think how ludicrous that particular brainwave would be.

Aaah Nowra, home of dirty caves , boulder length routes, chipping, spooge and tickmarks - Heres some shots from a mate's recent trip (probably the only dry place after 12 consecutive days of rain). Nice shots, just a shame about the tight ropes.

A couple of my buddy's shots of Jarmilla Tyrril on Big Wednesday (8b) at Boronia. He's getting good with his lighting......
