Win a romantic dinner date with Jeremie Thomas

Yes, that’s right, up for grabs for one lucky winner is a romantic dinner date with renowned French climber Jeremie Thomas.  Jeremie will cook you one of his delicious signature dishes (Barramundi avec pommes de terre carbonisees is a recent favourite) then serenade you over a glass of wine. 

To win this once-in-a-lifetime prize, all you have to do is look through the photos below.  One of the horizon-jumping pictures has been digitally enhanced – to spend a delightful evening eating burnt potatoes whilst Jeremie sings the one line that he can remember from ‘Christmas is all Around You’ over and over again (story of my life at the moment), all you have to do is identify which picture has been photoshopped and email your answer in to joe@intotrees.com.  If more than one person enters the competition the winner will be decided in an arbitrary manner.

Let this one run – Broome

2011 Western Australian TCC Results

The 2011 Western Australian Tree Climbing Championship was run across the weekend of 30 April – 1 May.  The preliminaries were held on the first day (please click on the image above to download a PDF of the full scores) with the second day featuring some more lighthearted events, as well as 7 climbers going through the masters challenge.  The competition was held in the beautiful gardens of King’s Park, Perth, and was one of the smoothest and most well-organised competitions that we have seen.  Congratulations and thanks to all of the organisers and volunteers who made the event such a success.

The let this one run roadtrip climbers also had a good day out, with Kiah Martin winning the women’s preliminaries and Joe Harris scraping past Scott Forrest to win the men’s.  Both Kiah and Joe went through to the second day to do demonstration masters climbs, after the local climbers had finished their competition.
