The Badlands Guide

  • Grade context: AU

A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.

At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

The DOC wants all climbers to register before climbing here: http://climbnz.org.nz/nz/si/canterbury/inland-canterbury/castle-hill-basin/flock-hill

Before you hike out to climb, check in at Flock Hill Lodge. Be sure to check out when you are done. This makes sure if there is an injury that prevents you from returning that they will search for you at the end of the day.
