Some climbing pictures from Frogatt Ledge, a place dear to my heart.
It's always nice to start with a scenery shot: Some tea shrubs above green pastures
Owen on Mr. Daddy Longlegs (22)
Terror from above (have I mentioned NZ is green?)
Claire with Andrew belaying, Ed working an impossible (for us mortals) boulder prob in the back
Owen belaying Inga
Inga on Zoomers (20)
Moony tearing it up on toprope
Some shelter for the belayer
Kenny working the pockets
Jules on the crux of Bring your Daughter to the Slaughter (hard 18)

Resting on Brontosaurus Theory (24)
The upper el cruxo, establishing a marginal pinch
On a thuggish 27 with sharp pockets 
Kenny Belaying Jules at the end of the day
A couple of Jules on a 20, great climbing!

Stunning shots. Where was this?
Nice photos, Jake. Good on you to climb that 27. Respect :)
dood! that rock looks incredible! like J-tree but soft granite. What formed those features?
The rock is the Ignimbrite at Frogatt ledge; it's kinda like welded tuff. Why you get so many pockets and jugs is beyond me, but all I know is that it rules. Thanks guys! Ian, how is Bend treating you?
