Title: More Bristol area topos
Post by: danski on June 21, 2008, 09:38:34 pm: Check these links. Bristol has been promoted from the Blue Square to the conference in the bouldering league. I'm not claiming all these problems, Martin Crocker did all the Bourton Combe stuff apart from the low traverses. The lads from Gloucester did most of the Huntsham stuff, particularly i believe Richard Ames. I am merely the bringer of good tidings.

Make sure it's within size limits etc.

Nice work on the topos. But you know you can create PDFs in landscape? Would save on my neck ache....... :lol:

As a bouldering guru i suggest you use the amazing rotate feature for the topo. Its like having a whole new set of problems. Roofs become slabs and visa verse. Good for easy grade grabbing.

Post by: danski on June 21, 2008, 11:39:15 pm: Don't worry, this is a whole new world of complications for me. I went to profiles and left just as confused. I've got a feeling i'm going to be whisked away to the idiot technophobe foum somewhere on this site. You'll just have to imagine an amusing picture for the moment.

Or maybe a slightly more heavily muscled, unkempt type?
