Climbing Thai-style


We find ourselves here in Railay Beach on the Adaman Sea. This is a world-class climbing destination, replete with climbers from all ends of the world, limestone caves, and local climbing guides who scale the cliffs like the monkeys in the palm trees below. This photo is the Thai-wand Wall. We hiked from the opposite side, through the cave (full of singing bats!!) you see in the middle of the far-right of the large rock face. There we impressed our guide, Rit, with our hardcore NC climbing skills (and alittle bit of hanging on the rope too!)...what a view :)
