I can't get no satisfaction - but I tried...and I tried...and I tried...and I tried (5 shots). The crux feels 7a for me.

This is a hard 6c! (5 shots)

Good fun!

Sidle up the palm tree to start before crossing through to the definitive sloper. Finishes with a crimpy Bluies style wall.

Whew! hard. A sandbag at 6A+!

Short and excellent. Overhanging thugfest on blobs and underclings to a dynamic lunge for a massive bucket. Apparently you can skip the lunge by going straight up, which perhaps would have been a better move for me. 2 shots

Tufa Bridging

Muscly and awesome start with kneebar opportunities galore although I still managed to get myself spat off. Eases back after 4th bolt (1 shot)

Prop your back against the massive cauliflour at half height before either roaring or grunting into the steep bridging. Bit of chimneying action there too if you fancy that

Stunning and dramatic. The best route ever. 35 metres of steep left leaning climbing through and over solid blobs and blades with awesome handholds and some polished feet. The crux is the final rib leading to the anchor, not where I fell, crossing up and over the amputated stalactite ("Mariopendecho that was SO gay"). (1 shot, but I'd give all my tomorrows for a single yesterday...on Trella)

Can't remember this climb very well but I think I had Spag Bog for dinner

Buggered if I can remember much about this climb.

Fantastic - like wet and wild on tufas. 6C+ not 7a in my book but who gives a rats about grade, get on it it's startling. 2 shots

Up you go on Warren Buffet sized pockets, hold your breath and dare to traverse right to the perfect kneebar cave. Traverse back left. 30 metres of pure climbing joy.

Thought provoking line with bolts bolts bolts that steepens up perfectly

What, me giving a slab climb a classic rating? My Magos loved the perfect little toe pockets and the crux at the overlap was spicy. Yeah ,classic.

Ah, no delicacy here, just awesome steep jug hauling and a lungey crux. Managed to pump myself stupid first route of the day!

This line is awesome! Brilliant start between twin tufas. Like a hick from cracksville, I fixated with tradlike focus on the greasy finger crack above, adding 2 grades unnecessarily and pumping out before seeing the side pull jug the size of a topside roast. 2 shots

Can't remember this climb very well, but can remember watching Sammi cook Lucomades at 9. They look like tufa blobs.

I liked Summertime crag. Shady and no other parties. Just that damn cat

Team Upskill Consensus - this is the designer 6A of Kaly. Extra stars if you can pronounce it and repeat the name at brekkie next day.

Decidedly atmospheric with the sea below and wind whipping about, hence Ricotto Pescatore for dinner. The route has triple the bolts of an equivalent length SE Qld route, and the steepening finish is wicked fun. All 5 of us climbed it!

This was great! There is a CRACK in it! a greasy crack, but still. Spag Pie for dinner - life is good!

Small holds, bit thin & techy. Soft touch at 6C! more like 6B+

My first route of the Upskill 2008 Kaly trip

This was hard to work out! 2 shots.

My first route on the Upskill 2008 Kaly Climbing and Eating trip

Took a rest - my fingers hurt! I thought all the holds in Kaly would be jugs! I agree with 6C for this one.

Small holds! Soft touch at 6C! It's a thin, techy 6B+.

With Gareth. I love this climb. If it was longer it would get a classic rating.
