Gibraltar climbing, sometime in the dim dark past

Getting a little slack on the blog, so these photos are a tad late. In fact I wasn’t going to even bother putting them up, but I got a request for “more climbing photos .. and less technical bullshit” 🙂

So a long time ago we went for a Sunday’s climb up at Gibraltar Peak. The walk in was, cough, a little longer than I remembered, but we made it eventually.

The weather wasn’t particularly kind to us, but we squeezed a few in before lunch. I recall I lead White Rabbit – which was squeezy, and rather precarious going through the rabbit hole – I took a cam for that section at George’s suggestion and was glad I had it.

The cool photos are of Julien leading something I’m not sure the name of, and couldn’t be bothered looking up in the guide book. But I remember it was hard. White Rabbit finishes near where he is in the third picture, but comes up from inside the stack of boulders.

    I want more technical stuff… less climbing and photos! They’re so boring, give me some good linux tips anyday 😉
