Many thanks indeed to @rockandice for giving me the cover of their latest Photo Annual, I feel very honoured indeed! . This is Ashlee Hendy and Elizabeth Chong on The Man Who Sold the World (25), at Clean Cuts crag in the Grampians. . I first became aware of this route when working on the 2015 Grampians guidebook. Undeniably photogenic, I thought about what would be the best possible way to shoot this route and I came up with an answer but it took a few years before everything came together. I predicted the light but it’s funny how the little details count for so much. I couldn't have done it without the hard work of Ashlee and Liz who were absolute legends on the day. The result is better than what I envisioned and this has become one of personal favourite pics. I’m very happy to see it used in this way. . So, thanks so much for this Rock and Ice -- as well as all the support over the years! Also, thanks to all the other photographers, writers and climbers out there who have contributed to this photo annual and have made it something I’m very proud to be a part of. #stoked . . . @ashleehendy @lizzyclimbs @climbingaustralia @sterlingrope @lasportivaaustralia @lasportivagram @prana @nikon_australia #mynikonlife @thinktankphoto @julboeyewear #RockClimbingDownUnder @thegrampians #grampians #climbingphotography Harry Kadi employing some Dark Energy (25) at Farside in the Blue Mountains. This is one of the new areas that will be in the "Best of the Blue" sport climbing guidebook which we are currently working on. This is an update and expansion of the 2011 Selected Sport Crags guidebook. This is a last call for info! Please get any new info or corrections for this book to us by early next week. If you have info for other areas that will be in the updated (more) comprehensive book, which we will be working on next, please get that all to us within three weeks. Thanks! . . . @climbingaustralia @sterlingrope @prana @nikon_australia #mynikonlife @thinktankphoto @julboeyewear #climbing #rockclimbing #sportclimbing #escalar #escalada #mountains #adventure #RockClimbingDownUnder #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #climbing_is_my_passion @bluemountainsaustralia #bluemtsaus @visitnsw #NewSouthWales @visitshoalhaven This has been a crazy trip; Ibiza, Mallorca and now Sardinia. If only there was more time! This was our third day in a row doing multi-pitch routes in the heat, I was feeling smashed before we started... but no time to rest! And it turned out climbing the Aguglia di Goloritze at Cala Goloritze was one of the most fun multi-pitches I've ever done! Always nice to top an actual summit but perhaps also the location has a bit to do with that? Hmmm... Anyway, we climbed Sole Incantatore, the classic 140-meter line up the middle of the shaded face, with pitches of 6b+, 6b+, 6c and 6b. Great quality 35m pitches, though the middle ones felt stiff. But that view eh... and yeah, that water is as good as it looks. Scroll through: 1. Me atop pitch 4. 2. Coastline, looking south. 3. The Aguglia di Goloritze. 4. Our route was in the shade. Yay! 5. View from half way up. Special shout out of thanks to @mont for hooking me up with an awesome new pair of @julboeyewear sunglasses for this trip. With all the glare around here, I'd've been stuffed without them! . . @climbingaustralia @sterlingrope @lasportivaaustralia @lasportivagram @prana @nikon_australia #mynikonlife @thinktankphoto @worldexpeditions #climbing #rockclimbing #sportclimbing #escalar #escalada #mountains #adventure #sardinia
Following on from my post yesterday... This is Marty Beare following the long slabby first pitch of Bellbird Wall (grade 18), a varied and interesting the three pitch classic at Pulpit Rock in the Blue Mountains. . . . @climbingaustralia @sterlingrope @prana @nikon_australia #mynikonlife @thinktankphoto @julboeyewear #climbing #rockclimbing #sportclimbing #escalar #escalada #mountains #adventure #RockClimbingDownUnder #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #climbing_is_my_passion @bluemountainsaustralia #bluemtsaus @visitnsw #NewSouthWales Come on Aussies, this is easy peasy!

I see a seahorse. We had to climb around this crazy 4m rock formation on the 195m (6 pitch) route Strudel, in northern Sardinia. For more pics of the route check out our @climbingaustralia account.
Kinda feels as though multi-pitch season is pretty much here. This is Marty Beare savoring the third and final pitch of the quite varied and interesting Bellbird Wall (grade 18) at Pulpit Rock in the Blue Mountains. . . . @climbingaustralia @sterlingrope @prana @nikon_australia #mynikonlife @thinktankphoto @julboeyewear #climbing #rockclimbing #sportclimbing #escalar #escalada #mountains #adventure #RockClimbingDownUnder #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #climbing_is_my_passion @bluemountainsaustralia #bluemtsaus @visitnsw #NewSouthWales Following on from my last post, this is the beach when we got back down from climbing Aguglia di Goloritze at Cala Goloritze, Sardinia. I *think* the water was as lush as it looks but I'm not sure because now I'm thinking it must have all been a dream... We're home, over the jet lag, and now smashed in the face by a ton of work... next job is two guidebooks to complete in the next few months... Yeah, just a dream.... but such a good one. . Thanks again to @mont for the @julboeyewear sunnies. . . . @climbingaustralia @sterlingrope @lasportivaaustralia @lasportivagram @prana @nikon_australia #mynikonlife @thinktankphoto #climbing #rockclimbing #sportclimbing #escalar #escalada #mountains #adventure #sardinia One last #dws, oops.... I mean #psicobloc... from Mallorca. Appropriately, this one is called The Mallorcan. Graded 7a it starts off with a tough boulder problem straight off the deck, off the deck of the boat that is... then some sustained climbing leads to a tricky exit to escape the tufa 10m up. Most of us fell off the bouldery start, much to the entertainment of all the other boats anchored at Port de Sa Calobra that day. Whereas @moniqueforestier here had the guns and the nerve to send it in style. Another super fun day!. . . . @climbingaustralia @nikon_australia #mynikonlife @thinktankphoto @julboeyewear #climbing #rockclimbing #escalar #escalada #adventure @climbing_pictures_of_instagram @climbing_is_my_passion @outdoorwomen
