Looking forward to the party/awards night.

Re: loose block / blocks Milkman wall
Thanks Drew, I never looked into the origins of this climb and now that you have pointed me in the direction, I am definitely going to have read more about comic book writer David Boswell. So, Mr O'Clock and the Horrors of Ivan come from the same comic book...cool. http://www.reidfleming.com/images/...

Re: loose block / blocks Milkman wall
Thanks Bruce, your work is appreciated. What's the story behind the name of that climb anyway.
Your post got me thinking of several other loose blocks observed earlier this summer.

Re: New route "Barbarian" on the barbarian wall
Well done Luke -- an impressive looking and sounding multi-pitch, especially pitch 4. Troglodyte = ancient cave dweller. The cave and arête sound like amazing features. Hope to see more feedback and photos of the route.
