Events

it's harder than it should be to find details of the dates, so i figured a post here would be in order

note that the nbs website (http://nbs.org.nz/) is not updated yet, possible to do so? decent turnouts at these comps make them even more fun

anyway, here is a link to a 2012 nbs poster in case anyone was wondering, dates below (i simply copied them from the poster, so hope that they are correct!):

wanaka -11th Feb

froggat -18th Feb

the rak - 25th Feb

spittle hill - 10th Mar

Hi guys I just wanted to let you know about this new facility that is opening later this month.

"The Project..." will be a dedicated bouldering and training facility, owned and run by climbers, for climbers.

Auckland climbing has been languishing for years, both in terms of achievement, sense of community and motivation.  They hope to raise all these standards.
