The
Land of the Giants is a climbing area near Bardens Lookout at
Mt York. We climbed hterde in the morning until it got too hot. Then
we retired to Mt York, where Chris and Suzie had their camp, for a
siesta. In the early evening - Chuin Nee, Chris and John top-roped
"Aunty Jack" at Mt York (while I took photos).
At the Land of the Giants, we started by climbing "J&D2"
(15) which was quite solid for the grade. The rock looked very
suspect!

Suzie's tub.

The enxt day, hot weather was forecast so we decided to go
canyoning. We visited Clatterteeth
Canyon at Mt Wilson. This was a good choice - in Sydney it was
the hottest day on record (45.8°C)
