Over summer, we will be going to Payne's Ford in Golden Bay for climbing. This will be just after Christmas and for a week (I will confirm the exact dates). You don't have to have climbed before, but it will make the trip a lot more enjoyable. Paynes Ford is a reserve with many many bolted routes. Being in Golden Bay, it is also close to beaches and The Mussel Inn.
Let me know if you are interested in coming.
