Ascents of Old Guard as Onsight

Easier than conquistador? Lovely lovely moves though.

We missed the exit and did the extension. Thought I found some abandoned gear in a crack right at top, nope it was a massive snake 😶

Great climb, though next time we'll take the early exit.

omg cannot believe this happened. very stoked and this was the climb that helped me believe in myself (cute). great stemming and gear the whole way with some epic cranking here and there (well cranking for me)

Unreallll line, definitely keep on trucking up right on keed spills once you hit the ledge, bomber locks crack, wouldn't finish any other way

Great rock, bit faffy

Tough to read. Amazing variety.

That’s a rippa. Absolutely perfect climbing right up to the last move!

One of the best, felt super smooth and creamy

Absolute mega classic route! Felt a bit easier then 22 but great fun regardless. Awesome little boulder problem to exit the climb

Went the direct finish and avoided stepping out right at the end to rest, didn't want to risk a dabs call.. great climb

Good but I would say a bit soft for the grade. Fun movement though. Definitely worth a climb.

Really happy to have got my first 22. Awesome climbing in the shade and great gear. Setup an anchor at the ledge and down climbed in order to rap off. Will try the full climb next time

Decided not to go for the old-school points, mostly due to my largest piece remaining being a 0.5 camalot

Great climb. Cheered on to victory

Easier than Short Order

Makes for a classic if you finish up Keed Spills.

Better than it looks and there are a number of stances on the way.

What a rude/incredible introduction to blank open-book corner stemming/laybacking haha. Had me thinking hard to decode the blank sections. Loved it, but ended up continuing up the last rotten section with the wrong gear. Pulled out of the chimney onto the face, only to stick my face next to a hornet nest. Without thinking, I jumped down and swung off a jug, and next thing I know, I'm hiding in the chimney!

Cool route. Good pro throughout and fun delicate climbing.

Wow! Contender for my favourite climb at Frog so far. Felt like the softer end of 22 if you don't mind a bit of laybacking and finger locking. Plenty of rest stances.

First route at frog for the year and first route there in about 4 months, loved this route would have been a lot nicer if i had not done it with a broken toe.

with Ben

First onsight trad 22. Lovely.

this grade at frog has some beauties

seconded Adam barefoot this time. also 9.5.04, 15.5.02

Not too hard if you like stemming

Magnificent thin corner.
