Berowra WinterClimbing
18 April 2014 |
Late afternoon Berowra panorama |
Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'
We are not know that strenght which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearths,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
Way too much time has passed in between our climbing trips: too many excuses - kids duties, too much work, too cold and best of all - too many perfect waves without the summer crowds. But the rock was still there immaculate, perfectly orange apricity, warm and soft to the touch. The highlights of the day included the ferocity of Pimple Wall warmups, Ladder of Gloom (19) and Vertical Dimentia (18) the newly renamed tricky arete Zoolander (18) , the hard roof start on Fox Sox Boxs (18) with its industrial protection; and the hard pockets of Looks Poxable (21).
