Rupert ran a half day session today with students from Wakatipu High School. Helped by teachers and local climbers at large Mr Charton,Mr Dunn and Henry. Whitney, Meagan, Jared, Steven and Andreas were all introduced to the vertical world at Gorge road, Queenstown ’s premier easy access crag. It was a great morning and the students left all psyched for some more climbing sessions this summer!!

Guide Rupert has finished running an alpine rock course high above Queenstown in the Remarkables mountains. He taught Joesee (from Prince George, Canada) natural pro and multi pitch climbing, then helped her put it all into practice by climbing Alpha on the east face of Single Cone and then DBeh on Double Cone. Dbeh was finished off by a Grand Traverse of Double and Single Cone. All up there was much learning, four summits, over twelve pitch’s of rock climbed and much exposed ridge travel!!

I definitly will be recommending Climbing Queenstown

It was great to experience this product and as a first time climber/abseiler I really enjoyed it and found the instruction very helpful.

I had the most fantastic day….

I felt like I had personally achieved something! I actually got a real buzz for climbing and hope to learn one day!

Little ladies day out!

admin — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 23:06:17 +0000

A group of bubbily young ladies came out to boldly hang themselves over one of our spine tingling abseils. For most, this was their very first time, they were nervous but eager to give it a shot.

The girls.... nervous and excited.

All smiles over the edge

Single Cone 24/08/10

admin — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 04:34:06 +0000

Chris Prudden guided client, Rob up Single Cone via the standard south gully route. I (Jess) came along for a great day out. A perfect sunny day the snow proved stable and compact however quite deep leaving the Wye saddle. Plugging thigh deep it greatly slowed our approach however we didn’t let this phase us. Chris leading for most of the way kept on strong. Continuing on led to much easier terrain, a chilly ascent up the gully then up onto the summit. It was the perfect winters day for this trip, with light winds on top and clear skies. We greatly reccomend a Single Cone ascent in summer but on a day like this, its equally good this time of year.
