Posted By Steve Mc Clure the 2011-10-20 The best time of the year is now. Everywhere! Not just for climbing but for everything (maybe not sunbathing).

But its getting better now, a bit annoying having also had a bad finger most of last year (different one), but at least I got good at 3 finger climbing! I was in good

By Rob Pizem It was another busy year for me and my family. I was fortunate enough to stay safe and healthy for most of it. The year began knowing that my wife was going to be completing her teaching degree and that we would be looking for work where ever we could find it.

Local Bouldering comp took place recently with route setting by Alberto Gnerro. Typical climbing wall meeting/gathering which was enjoyed by many. Nice to see Alberto Gnerro a master climber in attendance. Alberto was one of the strongest guys I’ve ever seen and was a 9a climber. Alberto did the fist 9a in Italy with a route called Ground Zero at Toit de Sarre, a route that is total power endurance. Anyway photos of the comp at Grivels website.
