Unclimbed Wall - Harrison's Rocks - Hold Break

Please remember that sandstone holds can be delicate and unpredictable at times. Holds have been known to break unexpectedly on occasions. On Sunday one of the finishing holds on Unclimbed Wall at Harrison’s Rocks broke and a young talented climber was unfortunately injured when making a solo ascent of this route. We would like to thank all the people who were involved in the rescue operation, as well as the great work undertaken by the emergency services. Our thoughts are with the climber involved in the incident and wish him a speedy recovery!
