Maroubra Beach Rocky Climb

Manly Ferry crossing Sydney Harbour during massive storm!

A Sydney man has captured incredible photos of monster waves lashing the sides of the Manly ferry.

The somewhat terrifying photographs could be taken straight from a scene from climate disaster flick The Day After Tomorrow.

The ferry ‘greaser’ Haig Gilchrist took the chance to show off his photography skills, as wild weather hit Sydney Harbour last weekend.

In the middle of the chaos he managed to capture a massive wall of water, towering next to the side of the ferry.

“Great day to be working,” he wrote in a Instagram comment on the picture.

“East Coast Low intensifying,” the photo was captioned.

It was only for a few hours it went a bit insane. Made it pretty busy with swell and sail boats, he wrote on a photo taken during Saturday's storms.

Manly Dam MTB | Gahnia Trail | Part #3

Mountain Biking at one of Sydney's most popular mtb trails - the famous mountain bike circuit around Manly Dam Reserve. In this part we are riding very rocky and challenging Gahnia Trail.

According to Flow Mountain Bike website Manly Dam is the most used trail not just in Sydney, but Australia, with approximately 150,000 uses a year, and up to 500 passes in one day. It’s rough, it’s bumpy, muddy and scratchy out there, it’s a fast ride, with loads of fun, swooping turns and drop offs everywhere.

Apologies for the crappy sound as the mic must have been taken water. Please click on those ads so I can buy a waterproof case :-)
