After spending October sport climbing, its time for some bouldering. The classic venues of Horsepens 40 and Little Rock City AKA Stone Fort are up.

With bouldering at the Lilly boulders, and some more sport climbing at the Obed also on the list

The Lilly Boulders
















The Obed

















These 3 areas are reasonably close together, luckily as the south east is not famous for its stable weather. Hopefully we will discover other areas along the way
