Michael led P1. Clipped Jenny's pre-placed gear on P2. What a wonderful climb to finish our trip to Araps. Will have to lead it properly next time.

Led P2,4. Jenny did all the hard work on the crux pitches 1 & 3. We thought P1 was hardest. P3 is quite spectacular climbing up a crack high on the wall.

Returned to this great climb to do the crux pitch. Led P3 after starting up Kaiser. The overhang is quite easy once you get out there on the starting blocks. With Michael.

Led P1, great climbing with crack, slab and face moves. Michael led P2 then we moved onto Resignation.

Led P2 with Michael. Take along some large nuts or smaller hexes to protect the crack as it will not take cams.

10 | ★★★ Syrinx | 170m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Led P1,2,4,6 with Ross. Stay below the orange rock with no pro on P4 as the book says. Tricky moves to get off gnd and P3 is solid for a grade 10. Highlights are climbing the jug ladder to the balcony and the exposed moves around 1st and 2nd weaknesses on balcony.

Led P1,3 with Linley. Another easy grade classic Araps adventure with a "step off a jetty" and a crawl through a tunnel. The rounded lay away on P1 is a bit daunting for the grade, but do this climb it deserves its stars.

Led P2 after Brad started up P1 of Libretto. This was one of my favorite pitches at Araps, the pull up into the corner, the traverse, the moves up the face that ease into a jug-fest at the top, all add up to a fun excursion.

Followed Brad up this corner that reminded us of Frog. Turn around and look for the footholds behind you when you find yourself wedged in deep.
|
||||||
15 | ★★★ Resignation | 96m | ★★★ Classic | |||
What a great climb! Led P2,4 with Brad. Went back another day to do the crux with Michael. The combination with Kaiser is recommended for an even better outing.

Got off route at top and finished up Dracula. Loved the columns in the cave. Araps is full of surprises like that.

Atridae Muldoon Area | ||||||
13 | ★★★ Muldoon | 42m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Did this one with Brad on my first day at Araps and was not yet used to the juggy overhanging rock on the easy grades. Hesitated quite a bit before the crux move on the first pitch as my last pro was below me and off to the right. Finally made the move and found higher jugs (phew).
