Well, it seems that there is a new club in town and it is the Avalon Climbing Club. We had our first meeting on Feb 5, 2006. There were three main areas of interest; developing new and existing areas, improving access to existing areas and to disseminate information concerning routes and problems.
Some ideas presented are to develop Holyrood in the early spring by placing new top bolts and cleaning some new lines, possible bolt them at the end of the day.
Have a 'cleaning' day at Flatrock, Main Face area. This would include clearing the top access of loose rock and cleaning the approach path down the ramp.
Others just want to get outdoors but don't know where to go, so they are interested in group climbing days.
There will be a second meeting in the near future, keep posted.

I document my various outings of rock climbing in Newfoundland. A group of us are developing new sport climbing and trad climbing area's around the Avalon Peninsula. I like to share photo's of the new climbing route with overlay of topos. I also publish photos of established rock climbing areas with route descriptions.

About Me
- Noel O'Regan
- I am 50 and I have been rock climbing for about 20 years. I climb mostly moderate sport climbs. I do enjoy a bit of trad climbing. I would say one of my biggest interests in climbing is developing. There is tons of potential spots for climbing around St. John's and I like finding them and developing them with my climbing partners.
