The Boneyard is amazing!
So i went to the Boneyard on the weekend and it was an eye opener, why didn't i go there sooner! The rock quality is superb. The climbing even better. If you can climb grade 24 i would advise going there as soon as you can. (The cliff will be closed from Aug to Dec) Gerry Narkowicz has put together mostCape Raoul (D.James and friends' routes)
Dave, How about topos and photos of all those routes you and friends did on the way to the end of Cape Raoul? Shells of Rheban etc.The descriptions would be a lot easier to follow.

A few references to thesarvo.com have been popping up as the word gets out. Roger's note about Craglets going online is in the latest Rock, and the Mt Brown topo by Garry and me made it into the new Crux. Expect more poms after a write up of FreycinetBlue Meridian - pitch 1 anchor
The rock around the right ring bolt at the end of pitch one on Blue Meridian sounds decidedly hollow (I'm pretty sure it wasn't like that previously). Maybe there's been some exfoliation action over winter. The bolt feels secure and the L ring appears unaffected. Can anyone shed light on this? In the meantime takeNew Hobart Crag?
In the latest Rock mag says: "Dave Barnes reports that there has been substantial development of a new crag in Hobart.
