dryad Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 I'm running a few errands in town before heading to Railay / Tonsai beach to hang out with the climbers and spend the next 2 weeks showing off how pathetically suck and out of shape I am since I haven't climbed in about 6 months and were pretty suck to begin with. Well, I can always use the excuse that I'm an alpine / trad girl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dryad Posted February 18, 2004 Author Share Posted February 18, 2004 Yup, all sport climbs here, which is weird because there are tons of pockets for gear and stalactites to hitch to. It looks like almost everything can in theory be done trad, but it's all bolted. Blame the French for this. BTW, if anybody knows anybody who happens to be here now, have them come find me in #B-8 at the Banyan Tree Bungalows on Ton Sai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambone Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 dryad, There are some routes that take gear. Most of those are reto, with some gear/mostly bolts. Flip through the guide and you'll see them. People do climb stuff with gear only down there, just not much is written about it. Remember Matt Heller? He did some trad climbing there. Where'd he disappear to anyway? Watch out for manky bolts! Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
