A wild day seeking safe climbing ground

This brings back so many memories...good ones too...even if at the time it felt like hell. We were once stuck behind a party on Green Gully, which was bad enough, but that was compounded with another wait as second...

All good fun...in retrospect!

Great photo, but this is why I don't do winter climbing anymore. I prefer my masochism to be confined to the bedroom.
