In reply to Robert Durran: In my limited experience of climbing destinations, the ones I feel are justifiably hyped include:
Pabbay & Mingulay; absolutely amazing! Beautiful islands with some of the best climbing I have ever done, on perfect clean rock. And you get to be there with just your mates!
Ceuse; Brilliant sport climbing, with a more memorable feel than your average sport crag.
Arapiles; Brilliant varied climbing on solid rock with bomber wires. Add in to the mix great weather and the proximity of the Grampians and you have a recipe for greatness!
Pembroke; not done masses here, but I think I've sampled enough to see the quality and I've not even climbed any of the real classics, the Leap itself makes it one of the best destinations I've been to without adding in Mother Carey's Rusty Walls, etc.
Gogarth; A little bit of every trad style and bucket loads of adventure just minutes from your car!
Personally not sure whether Squamish is overhyped or not... it was really great don't get me wrong but after a month I was ready to leave, whereas I was in Arapiles for 3 months before I was ready to go.
Just my tuppence worth. Dunc
