Macca: Enter stage left...

Reminiscing about the Buffalo shoot last winter got me thinking about some of the adventure I've had with Macca. He is a hard-core aid climber and pretty much owns Dog Face these days... Dog Face (Malatia Pt, Blue Mountains) is an imposing sandstone cliff that was formed in the 1930's by a huge landslide, thus it has the structural integrity of an eroded sand dune. Even abseiling down it often causes HUGE rock avalanches. The place scares me, it scares everyone, but Macca loves it.
So one day we decided to get some photos of Macca onsight solo-aiding a new route on the Dog. He was successful in completing the 2nd pitch of the route (a 7 hour ordeal) but the 3rd (top) pitch looked bad, REAL bad, even by Doggie standards. Macca looked excited.
I quietly explained I had all the photos I wanted. He understood my concern for his safety & we bailed to his house in Katoomba, where we hung out for a while & ended up doing an interview for CRUX magazine (where I was working as the Photo Editor at the time).

So anyway, here's the interview & check out some of the photos right over..... here!
