Baring head sat 22nd

Hi i'm getting the ferry over to wellington on friday night and was thinking of staying over to climb at baring head on sat. Is anybody about or heading there? Would be cool to get some local info on the good problems etc. Don't know anything about the place or even where it is! If someone could even just give a little info like where it is, whats good between V5-V10 that would be cool.
Cheers ali

Here's some directions for ya :)

When you reach the coast, park up and head West. Usually easiest to cross the stream close to the road or at the river mouth (the latter being more difficult but way more fun :)
could be worth asking on powerband.org.nz - a welly bouldering site
if it's fine there will likely be crew at turirakarae head, baring head seems a lot unloved the last year or so - which is crazy. I miss those welly crimps.
