Ascents as various tick types by James

this whole cliff, all the holds, everything slopes off down to the left. Makes for very absorbing climbing. good fun route, pitches 2,3 & 4 are sustained 10b - I kept expecting it to get easier higher up (as per the topo) but its sustained all the way to the top.

very fun climb. hardly any loose rock, well bolted, a great day out. the crux felt like a bit of a sandbag, but its very well protected (you could pull on the silver jugs to get past if you wanted). highly recommended!

lead p 2&4, the start of p2 is desperate!! not very sustained, so a good climb for aspiring gr21 leaders

the 1st pitch is awesome, but the remainder gets progressively worse. Good slabby route for a rest day after cranking the steeps. I'd still recommend doing it just for p1.

so bloody close to doing this but I got pumped trying to back up the manky rusty pins. Lowered down from just above the crux yo-yo style & got it 2nd shot easily.

nice moves but its way too polished

I was happy to do this properly, but its mega polished

very enjoyable climb (except the heckling from the 4yr old kid on the tourist track....)

my 1st taste of the fabled Taipan.... bunched up & awkward on the crux for me.... I missed the crux throw & caught myself twice!

only did the short p2 (10m 20/21)

very enjoyable problem solving exercise (there moves are all there once you work them out!)

tough crux for the grade but very nice climbing

a pumpy struggle but I got there in the end.

leaves a great big grin on your face after doing this - fun fun fun

nice but a bit dirty (needs more traffic)

fiddly gear down low. fun moves up higher

link p1 of this with p3 of Vandal for a great gr17 outing

would be better if more sustained.

shady p1 - firts 6-7m is harder than 17

cool climb, pumpy traverse & reachy crux

really bloody nice climb

fun but overrated one move wonder (repeats: lead 30.4.04)

1st pitch is too short, 2nd pitch is classic!!

super cool & classy but very chalked. Don't try this on a hot sweaty day!!

more slabbling, but not recommended for a sketchy gr15 leader

super bomber gear, great line, the only downside is sharp rock

jamB jamB jamB.... fun fun fun. Where else in Aust can you climb 6-7 long pitches (with only 1 'bad' pitch)??

I think we did this variant - awesome bulging handcrack

1st pitch is very dirty but ok otherwise - 2nd pitch is classic though!!

amazing dyke features & healthy run-outs with committing moves (more like 19?)

mostly straight-forward but a sting in the tail

super good, well protected

desparately thin start!!!

committing (& un-protected) below the 1st BR!!

reachy crux!!

delicate climbing on sometimes slopey holds, very nic!!

super good rock, great fun

fun little route, not sustained

huffed & puffed, climbed up & down, & eventually did it

awesome!! nice long route, thin & delicate

way fun - solid rock & positive edges

sharp holds & mossy slippery feet

spoilt by the moss/lichen, would be classic otherwise

super fun

cleaner than it looks - super good

bit short, bit lichenous

the grooves of doom.... scary 1st pitch, mega classic 2nd pitch
