Blog from June, 2026

Hello all,

Some of us have had the great (terrible?) idea of starting up the CCT Circular again (think newsletter x journal).

If anyone has any ideas, contributions, photos, stories to share on pretty much anything climbing related.. Please send it to cct@climbersclubtas.org.au and we can turn it into something for the next issue.

Our first issue will be Winter / Spring (to be released circa. end of August). Ideas to help prompt some stories to share might be:

• Harrowing tales of adventure
• Overseas trip reports
• New best routes!
• Ethics advice
• Letters to the editor
• Historical stuff
• A cool photo

Cheers,

The hopeful and re-formed CCT Circular team.

Yosemite bound and planning your next Big Wall route? You might be in luck because I’m selling my entire pin rack for $250. 

5x RURPs (realised ultimate reality pitons)

9x Bongs (assortment) Not to be confused with drug paraphernalia!

8x Knifeblades/Bugaboos and 3x Leepers (a type of angle piton)

11x Lost Arrows (assortment)

3x Skyhooks - (cliffhanger hook, Grappling hook, bat-hook)

16x Angles (assortment)

I’ll even toss in my hammer if you buy the whole job lot.

Cheers, Al
