J.R.R Tolkein, when writing his masterpieces Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, never mentioned how adept the pint-sized fellows were at climbing.
Keen to prove that Hobbits could in fact make it up a cliff-face, Croz, Paz, Jesse and Stu ventured out towards Hobbiton to rock climb and chase farm animals.

A second round of pics from Oli, all people shots from around the camp.
The shot above is of Paul, an American guy who took a bad fall a few days after the photo and is recovering in hospital. He's a champion bloke and we all wish him a speedy recovery.

I'm always hesitant to have a crack at black and white photography cos people do it too much and it looks a bit, well, shit.

The trip finally began last Monday when Stu, Paz and Danny hit the road to Mt Arapiles in Western Vic to climb some rock.
Paz and Stu hit Watchtower Chimney on Watchtower Face on Wednesday, a cruisey three pitch grade 12 with a lot of bridging up a chimney.
