Climbing the Balkans
Saturday, 20 October 2007
I just discovered, that Genesis has organised a climbing club on Facebook and I wasn’t invited. Well luckily, I eventually got added.
Our first event is a climbing session at the ‘Balkans’. The Balkans is partly located in the Sydney suburb of Baulkham Hills so it’s no wonder that its location was initially mistaken for “Balkan Hills”, and the name has stuck. The Balkans is unique in Sydney bouldering in that there is truly something for everyone, from total beginners, to pumpers and power mutants. Very few of the problems are eliminates and they all top out!
I didn’t really climb all that much today, but Matt was a willing subject so I focussed my attention on his attempts at some challenging problems.
