Car to car in 39:14, up caves, tagging summit and back down bushwalkers. Curious if there’s a standing speed record, didn’t feel super fit so I think some mutant could make sub 30.

Well... I got lost and climbed (and downclimbed) areas which were definitely not a 4...
Got there eventually though.
Once a kind gentlemen rappelling down the chimney showed me the actual track, it's pretty straightforward (other than gnarly exposure), good holds etc

Anyone climbing this variant should note that pitch 7 (the alternative to the original route via the chimney) is extremely runout; I only managed to place 2-3 pieces of tenuous gear the entire 55m before the DBB.

This was really enjoyable, chimney wasn't as big as I thought it would be.
Someone painted ticks on all the holds on the climbing sections, not sure if it always been like this but definitely takes a bit away from the experience. |

Robbie drove to ol Tibro, me as a passenger. We were greated by a hail storm, and hid under the train bridge for a few minites. More cars arrived, and we hit the climbers carpark. Lead climbed P1 and P2 of Caves Route, slinging trees, in approach shoes. Didn't feel confident to lead P3 without 'climbing shoes'. Bailed for an early finish. Simul rapped for kicks.

Started much too late and ran out of daylight. With the rock being wet and it being my first time ascending this route (and in approach shoes) we took it slowly and carefully. Some flashbacks to Aphelion p1 with Marty. Completed six pitches - to where Caves Route and Caves Route Variant split - before having lunch and making the descent. Last two rappels were in the dark. Technically this was Igor's first time lead belaying... I could imagine soloing this in the dry with rock shoes. Actually I'd probably feel much more confident doing it that way and descending via the main tourist track. Slinging trees did very little in the way of protection. Overall a great day with Igor, excited for more Tibrogargan adventures.

Finally done caves route! Picked a pretty good day to roll up to tibro at midday. The start of caves was pretty soppy and honestly a little hows it going unroped, but the wet rock subsided quickly. Got lost on p2 and roped up for rachs debut trad lead. Luncheon in the big cave. A hobby guide cruised up past us and took us under his wing. Our trioship broke when he decided to stop for a bundy at the top of the chimney. We continued up, checked out the beautiful mine from the summit and then headed back to the GHM 'Tavern' - a rebranding has occured clearly. Jarred Liv and Justin joined us for a bev.
