An outdoor adventurer mainly doing remote bushwalking, climbing, canyoning, and camping around Townsville, Queensland, Australia. Check out the Wanderstories adventure website with loads of information on North Queensland: https://wanderstories.space/

I started climbing indoors in early 2018 but soon moved outdoors to have a go at bouldering. I purchased a bunch of climbing gear and started going out night climbing after work; the weekends are for multi-discipline adventures. I then proceeded to do mix of sport and bouldering. Now I'm doing a healthy mix of sport and trad climbing. I love long climbs and multi-pitches with high exposure but around the 20 grade. I'm mostly doing ground up, chossy, adventure climbs.

I spend a lot of time exploring remote places around Townsville, looking for new and interesting areas to explore. I like climbing old routes that have been forgotten by most and finding new, interesting places to climb. By doing a lot of bushwalking, I've come across quite a few remote rocks (adventure crags) and have integrated trad climbing into these remote expeditions.

I prefer to onsight than project, probably why I haven't done anything hard yet. But that may change...
