Oh wow, you have to make a detour to #MtArapiles.
Its not far from #Natimuk, which is near #Horsham!

It's a unique, incredible place. It has a Uluru like quality to it, it's an outcrop in the middle of nothing, seemingly.

And here, is #mtarapiles #rockclimbing #rockclimbingvictoria #kachoong , an iconic "Raps" climb.

Probably right although there's been silence from one #climber group in response .

Imo silence = complicit agreement 🤮
