The ground's still shaking and some guy's got a broom and sweeping up the street. Way to go - keeping NZ clean!

My sister lives in Auckland but was down in Chch when it happened. Sounds like the experience was totally fucking terrifying.

Castle rock after the earthquake in September..blocks as big as houses rolled downhill.

After this last one, the Keep (the buttress on the right skyline..) fell down, taking with it one of my all time favorite routes (Executioner. 19 {5.9/510a})

But that's small potatoes compared to all the hell and suffering going on in Chch right now...30% of downtown buildings are gone (at least)..

I always regretted moving away, but now..
