Straightforward, but grunty
|
||||||||

|
||||||||
22 | ★ Don't Try This at Home | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Sat 3rd Dec 2011 | |||
too stout for a warm up! The firstshale ledge is ugly
|
||||||||

|
||||||||
22 | ★★ Old Mate (Spiky arete) | 20m | Bulahdelah | ★★ Very Good | Sun 25th Nov 2012 | |||
Rock quite blocky but will clean up. Some fun airy moves
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ I've Got 3 Buttocks | 30m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Fri 4th Jan 2013 | |||
Was onsight except I couldnt clip 3rd bolt and frigged around with stick. Looses a star for that, otherwise great.
|
||||||||
22 23 | ★★★ Tilt | 15m | Narrabeen | ★★ Very Good | Sat 5th Jan 2013 | |||
I think this was it- the lip of the roof is hard to reach
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ S.S.C.C.3 | 33m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Mon 15th Apr 2013 | |||
HAd tried once before as a warm up which was a mistake. Still tricky.

|
||||||||
6c+ | ★★ Tsunami Extension (Tutsunami) | 24m | Olympos | ★ Good | Mon 31st Mar 2014 | |||
Flash pitch 1 then a bit worried about ledge fall to link pitch 2 so inspected holds then came to belay and did pitch 2.
|
||||||||
6c+ | ★ Diedrinolo | 20m | Val d'Algone | ★ Good | Sat 17th May 2014 | |||
Wet pockets. This crag is probably super in late summer.
|
||||||||
6c | ★★ Banania (Banana) | 20m | Rocher Maubert | ★★ Very Good | Sat 14th Jun 2014 | |||
Stuffed up overhung start sequence. Nice delicate climbing after

||||||||
6c+ | Streep tease | 20m | Saint-Léger du Ventoux | Average | Wed 18th Jun 2014 | |||
3rd draw clip page is nails and scary. Quite slopey.

Bouldery crux then interesting run out slab

Much tougher than the other 11b

The right hand finish isn't as good
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ Fax Me | 9m | Umina | ★ Good | Sat 14th Feb 2015 | |||

22 | ★★ Fax Me | 9m | Umina | ★ Good | Sat 14th Feb 2015 | |||
22 | ★ Rocky Road | 15m | Blue Mountains | Average | Sat 21st Feb 2015 | |||
Multiple snap pages, bad rock for bell which says a lot. Stick clip second bolt if you don't want to hit ground.
|
||||||||
22 | ★ Entourage | 16m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Sun 24th May 2015 | |||
Very cold, found it stout second go still, but maybe cos hands were numb
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ I | 12m | The Bluffs | ★ Good | Sat 12th Sep 2015 | |||
Fingers a bit raw by this time. Cleaned on ascent
|

|
||||||||
22 | FA ★ Squashed Dog | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Mon 2nd May 2016 | |||

|
||||||||
5.11b | ★★ Four Play | 18m | La Milagrosa Canyon | ★★ Very Good | Sat 28th May 2016 | |||
Crimpalicious. Interesting 5 m run out especially if short.
|
||||||||
5.11b 5.11c | ★★ I Been Robbed | 18m | La Milagrosa Canyon | ★★ Very Good | Tue 31st May 2016 | |||
Mc dougalled to left at crux. Quite reachy otherwise
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ Relentless Sinner | 30m | Kaputar | ★★ Very Good | Mon 13th Jun 2016 | |||
Dogged first 3 bolts through the choss pit, then came to ground and went through to anchors. The upper wall is very good. Eliminated point of rest done by FA.
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ SWALK | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Sat 12th Nov 2016 | |||
Rpt, the ground is getting pretty eroded around here
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ Hang onto Yourself | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Sun 18th Dec 2016 | |||
Rpt, I didn't mean to sandbag Dave onto this, but it was crowded everywhere else
|
||||||||
5.11b | ★★ Obnoxious Little Military Men | 30m | Skaha | ★★ Very Good | Sun 18th Jun 2017 | |||
Got very pumped putting draws on first go. Technical, and remains sustained
|
||||||||
5.11b | ★ Into the Blue | 20m | Jasper National Park | ★ Good | Sun 23rd Jul 2017 | |||
Roof at mid height is desperate. Second go.
|
||||||||
5.11b | ★★ Band-Aid Box | 21m | Jasper National Park | ★★ Very Good | Sat 22nd Jul 2017 | |||
Tried to do the start without using the big stemming box, a mistake
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ Maiden Voyage | 17m | Tascott | ★★ Very Good | Sat 7th Oct 2017 | |||
Rpt, clean straight up, but slow on traverse
|
||||||||
22 | ★ No trachyte for old men | 30m | Kaputar | ★ Good | Fri 8th Dec 2017 | |||
Really an onsight, hold snapped at second bolt. Not Reassured by the surprise in Fantinis voice at the bolt holding!
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ Careless Fingernicker | 30m | Kaputar | ★ Good | Mon 2nd Apr 2018 | |||
Not having the best day. Maybe work waking me at 3am and not being able to sleep again? Came off at first bulge. Rock quality improves after first 8 m. Bolted finger crack.
|
||||||||
22 | ★ Squashed Dog | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Sun 28th Oct 2018 | |||
Rpt, nice staying on the bolts, mcdougalling would be chossy
|
||||||||
22 | ★ Volcano | 8m | Watagans | ★ Good | Sat 11th May 2019 | |||
Rpt, straight up
|
||||||||
6c | ★ Diez | 20m | Desfiladero de la Hermida | ★ Good | Mon 2nd Sep 2019 | |||

|
||||||||
6c | ★ Que Buena Son en la Federacion | 9m | Oriente | ★ Good | Sat 7th Sep 2019 | |||
Was taking things too casually on the super jugs
|
||||||||
6c | ★ Aranmanoth | 20m | Rodellar | ★★ Very Good | Thu 26th Sep 2019 | |||
Got scared on the first go and downclimbed and sat on third bolt. Lovely technical climbing and not polished.
|
||||||||
22 | ★ Copacobana | 20m | Watagans | ★ Good | Fri 28th Aug 2020 | |||
Post rebolt lead. A bit pumper than the route to the right.
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ Blow Over | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Thu 22nd Oct 2020 | |||
Had done the shorter version before. I don’t think this adds much.
|
||||||||
22 | Avalanche | 12m | Watagans | ★ Good | Sat 15th May 2021 | |||
Rather Sandy, and the proximity of the tree is scary, but interesting moves, glad for the better placed re-bolt.
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ What a Whopper | 15m | Brooyar | ★ Good | Sun 18th Jul 2021 | |||
Yep a monster move for the short. Consider importing a small rock onto the ledge after the mantle.
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ SWALK | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Thu 30th Dec 2021 | |||
Rpt
|
||||||||
22 | FA ★ Cuddle-dog | 14m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Sat 1st Jan 2022 | |||
FFA. My recollection is it’s a little easier than the route to the R, so I will give it a 22. Fun route.
|
||||||||
22 | ★ Lucifer Direct | 18m | Sand River | Fri 4th Feb 2022 | ||||
22 | ★★ Smiling | 16m | Nowra | Average | Thu 2nd Jun 2022 | |||
Doesn’t add much, and doesn’t feel much harder than the 18
|
||||||||
22 | ★★ Thin Time | 24m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sun 16th Oct 2022 | |||
Second go. My commitment levels were low instead time around getting to second bolt.
|
||||||||
22 | ★ Scooter Fun — 2 attempts | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Thu 29th Dec 2022 | |||
Couple of enhanced holds it seems, pretty goey crimping without great feet off ledge, especially my first attempt when my belayer mistakenly mistook a power grunt dead point for a sign I was falling
|
||||||||
22 ~21 | ★★ Elendil — 2 attempts | 20m | Blackwood Rocks | ★★ Very Good | Tue 14th Feb 2023 | |||

|
||||||||
7 | ★★ Den Lille — 2 attempts | 9m | Ofoten | ★★ Very Good | Wed 9th Aug 2023 | |||
Short but very much liked it, bouldery the cracky

|
||||||||
22 | ★★ Careless Fingernicker — 2 attempts | 30m | Kaputar | ★★ Very Good | Wed 13th Dec 2023 | |||
