Bouldering by the sea — Baring Head

Baring Head can get interesting when the tide's high and a southerly's blowing in from Cook Strait. This is the aptly named Seaward Boulder, and for reasons probably obvious, this was the only climber I saw attempting any of the problems on it during the competition.
