Agreed Jim, that's the problem I was having.. real shame as it is a nice sequence of moves totally devalued by the crux being avoiding the block 1 inch from your back!

Quality pics as always, the city background looks so surreal in some of those shots.

Proper barcode business, mental. Good shots and ace looking rock as usual.

Not but you can use the flickr reverse lookup that Bubba found and it will lead you to The Sausage's flickr stream.

@ The Sausage : If you're using Firefox install Greasemonkey and AllSizes+ and then click on the "All Sizes" button to get the BBcode to embed and back link your pictures.

Damn, apologising for being too small. As always... Will install that thing. Thanks.

Could well be a local name, the tags on the image on flickr suggest it might be Wye Creek (at least picture in the page looks close).

SA Chris · February 16, 2009, 05:21:34 pm

Wye Creek is near Queenstown gahoogle says http://www.nbs.org.nz/default.aspx?p=9

Cheers guys - gotta love google maps - think I've now identified the actual boulder that "the hit is on!

Has this been on? From the beastie boys flickr stream

Amazing line. I remeber when we bumped into Dan at Queens and he pointed it out, not that you could miss it really! It feels a lot bigger when your stood underneath it and looks proper nails. Brilliant line though.

Fiend · February 17, 2009, 02:44:29 pm

Quite a spiffing line eh wot.

Mike Tyson · February 17, 2009, 02:55:24 pm

Here here old boy. Think there may have been talk of a sitter as well but the stand up appears to be quite taxing as it is. Would quite like to get back to the crag, 'Twas a nice quiet place.

philo · February 18, 2009, 06:58:25 pm

yeah same, cant wait till its dry enough to blast some sessions.
lanterns and some late nighters anyone?

is that appropriate for the venue given you park near where people live!

philo · February 19, 2009, 05:38:31 pm

if your quiet enough i guess. id not thought of it like that tho!
hmmmmmm

Paul B · February 19, 2009, 08:21:02 pm

I dont think the climbing would be an issue but you walking/driving out late at night might not go down too well. I guess asking someone like Dan for his opinion would be the best way to go as he is a regular.

carlisle slapper · February 19, 2009, 11:18:10 pm

Night sessions at queens aren't something i'd go for, as there is a geniune chance that you could get shot by Jamie or one of the lads (the farm hands) the farm house down the hill and the guy in the small cottage about a mile to the north are big on dogs and hunting and i don't think they'd appreciate the poaching false alarm (you look like lampers), access is pretty good here at the mo and the farmer himself is a right legend. I'll be at Queens all easter throwing myself off said arete (and a few other projects) until its done, anyone is welcome to join me. Have done some good links on the whole thing including the sitter but the way i'm trying the stand is borderline retardedly low percentage for me I'd say. The link from the sitter needs about a 175 ish span minimum and some serious power/endurance and is euro style hard, the stand is my weak mans cop out and i'm probably trying it a kack arsed way.
