Sun 21st Aug 2005 - Nowra
Thompson's Point The Fossil Cave
19 Cromagnon Sport 22m Good
Not too bad. Pulled through the start because I hate the stupid chimney and have done it once before, almost at the expense of my extremely sporty harness.

Fri 22nd Jul 2005 - Nowra
Bomaderry Creek Scattered Crags Julian Rocks
16 Poussy Poussa Sport 7m Crap
Absolutely no way this mank is a 16. I think 26 would be closer to the mark.

Not completely worthless.

 
Fri 22nd Jul 2005 - Nowra
The Grotto Cliffline The Colosseum
22 Slimey Ken's Knob Sport 9m, 3 Very Good
More like a diffucult 21 when compared to the surrounding 22's, but would be fair anywhere else.

About the same as Beavis in terms of the thin section, which is just near the end.

Babylon Areas Babylon Western Cliffline
20 Dintir Sport 15m, 5 Good
I actually found this one on par with Waramsin in terms of difficulty. Maybe it was just first climb of the day, and firt time in two months on rock.

 
Fri 24th Sep 2004 - Nowra
Babylon Areas The Gaza Strip Dead Cat Wall
17 Difference Of Opinion Sport 10m Good
Really cool climb. Worth a star before Murray.

 
18 Murray Sport 10m Average
Damn hard finish for an 18, maybe something has come off.

Sat 31st Jul 2004 - Nowra
Thompson's Point Alley Wall
17 18 Bombtrack Sport 24m, 9 Very Good
Don't let the dirty looking start put you off, once you get on the second bit of rock, its a really well protected, fun climb.

 
Sat 31st Jul 2004 - Nowra
Thompson's Point The Wastelands
17 Moshpit Sport 15m Good
I think it has an 18 move in it. It's really balancy to get over the last bolt before the doubles. Other than that, a nice climb.

 
Sat 31st Jul 2004 - Nowra
Thompson's Point Descent Gully Walls
20 Layoff Sport 15m, 7 Very Good
Pretty tough start, but then gets pretty easy.

Just one tricky bit.

 
Sat 31st Jul 2004 - Nowra
Thompson's Point The Wastelands
23 Ryobicide Sport 20m, 7 Good
I'd like to give it a star just because it is my first 23 onsight, but it really isn't worth one. If you are out of stared 23's jump on it. It is really varied climbing, from a balancy layoff start to thin slopers on a slab and finally a bit of a haul over a roof.

 
Sat 17th Jul 2004 - Nowra
Bomaderry Creek Cheesedale Cheddar Choss Wall
17 Cheap Route Sport 7m Good
Not a bad little number

 
23 Slave To The Rythym Sport 9m Classic
Another great climb. Really good moves, with one big reach, then the rest is just uncertainty pleasure.

Wed 14th Jul 2004 - Nowra
Thompson's Point Vine Wall
19 McFrys Sport 30m Very Good
Really enjoyed it. Quite exposed, and no double rings to second your mate up or lower off, so take a big sling to thread this huge rock at the top and then walk out.

 
Wed 14th Jul 2004 - Nowra
Thompson's Point Betty Blue Area
17 Kicking Dogs Balls Sport 8m Crap
The worst climb I have ever done. Absolute slime ball with crappy moves and not worth the time of day. Do Still Life instead, it's probably easier and much more enjoyable.

Poor barstards tring a 16 for the first time might find that start a bit challenging.
