Canyon - Kloof Gorge
27 March 2004
"This last weekend saw some of our club members frying at
the Canyon in Kloof gorge. On Saturday 27 March 2004 Angus McFarlane managed to
redpoint "Viper" (27) at the "This and that" wall, he was
ably belayed by Scott Sinclair. The next day saw a huge influx of members at the
crag and with temperatures soaring into the 30's a surprising amount of climbing
was done. Brett Daly, Dale Braum and Chris (bandana man) Bahlmann all posed for
photo's on "Magnus Powermouse" (23) with Chris coming desperately
close to snatching the redpoint of this awesome route. Dave Drummond redpointed
"Viper" (27) with ease (extra points for the heat factor ?) and once
again the redpoint belayer was Scott Sinclair. Trent Burnett was also there and
joined Scott in sweating up "Vampire" (27) to train for an upcoming
trip to Watervalboven . Watch this space, Trent should be sending
"Vampire" in the near future !!"
