Sun 5th May 2024 - Mt Stapylton Campground
The Guardhouse
23 Hard Little George - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 14m, 4 Very Good
Interesting moves on fantastic rock. Over too early.

 
23 Miss Communication - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 10m, 4 Very Good
Great moves on the steep section of the wall. Blew the on-sight by not seeing the good hold before the finish jug.

 
Thu 25th Apr 2024 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Lust sector
29 Greed - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 25m, 11 Mega Classic
Absolutely stunning route. Lots of techie sections linked together, where you can fall at any point, with a stopper move final dyno to the glory jug. Whilst a few people have ticked this route pretty quickly, I ended up spending about 15-20 sessions on it, so it was at my limit, so it felt pretty good to clip the chains today.

 
Tue 2nd Apr 2024 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Centennial Glen Wave Wall
24 Jaqueline Hyde - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 15m, 6 Good
OK climb, although potentially a little contrived as the Ethics Police fined me for going into the corner.

 
Fri 29th Mar 2024 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Centennial Glen Main Wall
25 Ernest in Africa - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 12m Good
This route kicked my butt until I used all the unticked holds, and it all worked nicely.

 
Tue 12th Mar 2024 - Mitcham Quarries
Car Crash Quarry Sector 4 - Graffiti Wall
22 ~22 Suck Me Up the Vacuum Cleaner - with Maya Kinnane Sport 17m, 7 Good
A couple of good moves in the second half of this route.

 
Sat 10th Feb 2024 - Mitcham Quarries
Car Crash Quarry Sector 4 - Graffiti Wall
20 AO - with Maya Kinnane Sport 8m, 3 Good
Tue 9th Jan 2024 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Porters Pass La La Land Area
24 Hard La La Land - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 20m, 8 Mega Classic
Amazing climb with a puzzling crux that needs solving. 3rd go. Felt hard for the grade, but it's my anti-style.

 
Sun 7th Jan 2024 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Logan Brae Main Cliff
22 Room With a View - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 15m Good
Solid move at the crux

 
Sat 6th Jan 2024 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd Bell Supercrag Arrivals (Lower)
25 Paint God - with Joanna Lazniewska, Bill Mansfield, JoshB Sport 20m
Super classy route. Second shot.

 
24 Snappy Dresser - with Joanna Lazniewska, Bill Mansfield, JoshB Sport 15m
Great route that doesn't really let-up at any point

 
21 Jingle Bells - with Joanna Lazniewska, Bill Mansfield Sport 15m
Easy climbing with a hard-to-read crux.

 
Fri 27th Oct 2023 - Arapiles
Atridae Cassandra Area
19 The Last Disco Dancer - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 18m, 4 Good
Really very nice climbing, although there are some tricky moves above bolts that wouldn't be a pleasant fall, so it's less a "Sport" where you clip and go, and more a "Trad" route that's been bolted.

 
Sun 22nd Oct 2023 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Lust sector
19 Permanently Moist Thing (PMT) - with Maya Kinnane, Joanna Lazniewska Sport 15m Good
Very wet, but some really pretty good moves, and surprisingly sustained. I think over summer this will get a lot of traffic, and is a great addition to the crag.

 
Fri 13th Oct 2023 - Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton)
Tribute Wall Tribute Wall Lower
23 Hard By Jovi - with Maya Kinnane Sport 14m, 4
Sustained crimping

 
Sat 30th Sep 2023 - Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton)
Van Diemen's Land
25 Warped Spasm - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 30m, 5 Very Good
Great moves. Second go.

 
Sun 27th Aug 2023 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Lust sector
29 Rainbow Serpent - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 30m, 14 Mega Classic
Super happy to clip the chains on this route after being very close for a few weeks. Mega-endurance route, which is definitely my style, with lots of solid climbing where you can fall off anywhere, but no ridiculously hard moves.

 
Sun 2nd Jul 2023 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Trade sector
28 Baccarat King - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport Mega Classic
Super happy to tick this after 10+ sessions. The sequence from the kneebar rest to the Marlboro rest is amazing - absolutely desperate, on-the-limit climbing where you can fall on any move.

 
Sun 11th Jun 2023 - Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton)
Van Diemen's Land
21 Crime Wave - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 30m, 6
25 Suicidal Tendencies (Pitch 1) - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 18m Good
Powerful moves on pockets. Easy for 25 (but probably too hard for 24). Ticked first go after inspecting the moves lowering off the warm-up route.

 
Sat 10th Jun 2023 - Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton)
Van Diemen's Land
24 Body Count - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 25m, 7 Classic
Pumpy endurance route with 2 tricky sections.

 
Mon 3rd Apr 2023 - Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton)
Bad Moon Rising Wall
23 Tomcatting Town Planner - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 15m Very Good
Sun 2nd Apr 2023 - Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton)
Bad Moon Rising Wall
22 All The Way To Eleven - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 18m, 6 Very Good
Great moves moving across the wall. A lot of fun.

 
Sat 1st Apr 2023 - Mt Stapylton Campground
Sentinel Cave
20 Dwarf Pumper - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 8m, 3 Very Good
Repeat

 
23 Media Puzzle - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 16m, 6 Very Good
Originally ticked this route 20 years ago and thought the start was pretty hard back then. The start is still hard!

 
Wed 29th Mar 2023 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Trade sector
27/28 Baccarat King LHV - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 25m, 10 Classic
Mega-pumper route, that doesn't let up until the final Marlboro mantle. Felt similar in difficulty to Emphysema, but I suspect once the strong local crew work out better beta if will be easier. So took a bet each way with the 27/28 grade.

 
Tue 14th Mar 2023 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Right Tier
15 April Sun in Cuba - with Maya Sport 20m, 6 Good
Blew the on-sight due to wasp attack.

 
Thu 23rd Feb 2023 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Centennial Glen Main Wall
25 Madge McDonald - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 12m, 7 Classic
After a few falls working out the hard move at the first bolt, finally got through and clipped the chains. Pretty scrappy on the top moves.

 
22 Ruddy Norry - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 14m, 4 Good
Solid crux for the grade

 
Wed 22nd Feb 2023 - Blue Mountains
Mount Victoria Area Boronia Point Main Wall (Ferris Cave)
23 Lyptus - with Joanna Lazniewska, Bill Mansfield Sport 23m, 8 Very Good
Steap juggy stuff into a cool vertical face at the top.

 
Sun 19th Feb 2023 - Blue Mountains
Leura Sublime Point West Face (Main Area) Middle Cliffs Ben Trovato Wall
22 Guillotine P1 - with Joanna Lazniewska
1 22 20 Sport
Sport 20m, 23
Pitch 1. Fine climbing but the start up the tree is a let down.

 
Sat 18th Feb 2023 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Logan Brae Main Cliff
22 Dead Man Walking - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 18m, 7 Good
Polished!

 
Sat 21st Jan 2023 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Trade sector
21 Trade Embargo - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 4 Good
Short route with some interesting moves, although not the best rock quality.

 
Thu 29th Dec 2022 - Arapiles
Northern Group Mysteries Wall
25 Anus Horribilus - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 15m Very Good
Great rock quality and moves. A good options for hot days.

 
Sat 17th Dec 2022 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Trade sector
27 The Art of Seeing - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 25m, 10 Good
Sun 27th Nov 2022 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Trade sector
28 Emphysema - with Joanna Lazniewska, Lee Stiles Sport 25m, 9 Mega Classic
A hard fought battle over many many sessions. Whilst there are many ways through the top crux, I couldn't get any of them to work with pumped arms. It took Joanna ticking it to really focus the mind and become one with the rock and got the tick the next go! Nothing better than a double-tick day after a few weeks of wet rock.

 
Sun 26th Jun 2022 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Trade sector
27 Marlboro Red - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 25m, 9 Mega Classic
Mega-endurance route - perfect for the climber with great endurance, but no power.

 
Mon 13th Jun 2022 - Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton)
Amnesty Wall Area Amnesty Wall
25 The Good Fight - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 25m, 9 Very Good
Easy climbing to the half way break, then it's on until the chains. Took a few burns to unlock the crux, then it went first pop.

 
Thu 2nd Jun 2022 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Trade sector
27 Camel Filter - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 22m, 8 Classic
Sneaky mid-week afternoon session tick. Pumpy line. Fell off exiting the final undercling left traverse a few times before getting a sequence that worked.

 
Sat 23rd Apr 2022 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Lust sector
27 Top Shelf Material - with Joanna Lazniewska, Lee Stiles Sport 30m, 12 Very Good
Took quite a few goes to get this one. The exit move from the second crux sequence confounded me, until I found some crack'in beta that worked a treat.

 
Sat 16th Apr 2022 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd The Dam Cliffs Gulf War Wall
24 Cannon Fodder - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 20m, 5 Very Good
Big dyno into pumpy finish.

The Ramparts
24 Fingernickin' 1st pitch - with Joanna Lazniewska Trad 30m Mega Classic
Had my eye on this route for nearly 20 years, and finally got to jump on it!

 
Mon 21st Jun 2021 - Mt Coolum
25 24 Crazy Horny - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 10m, 4 Very Good
Very cool moves. Hard start, and then pump it out to the end.

 
Wed 16th Jun 2021 - Mt Coolum
24 Yoink - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 10m, 6 Average
Relatively easy climbing to a very hard clip of the chains. I used my bi-annual "unethical tick" card on this one.

 
Mon 5th Apr 2021 - Earlwood
24 In the Mixe - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 9m Good
Slopers and big moves on a wall full of crimps.

 
21 Science of Imaginary Solutions - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 8m Good
Nice face climbing. Hard clipping the chains - so missed something, or maybe a hold broke?

 
Fri 2nd Apr 2021 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Centennial Glen Main Wall
23 Nev Herrod - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 12m, 5 Very Good
Mantle into a funky roof dyno.

 
24 Iona - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 12m
Tricky start into powerful underclings finishing with a mantle ramp. Great fun.

 
Sat 20th Mar 2021 - Morialta
Thorn Buttress
26 25 Kiss My Brain - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 15m Very Good
Excellent route with some very hard-to-read beta at the start which seems to put most people off. I see it got regraded from 25 to 28 then back again. Felt somewhere in between those two grades.

 
Mon 28th Dec 2020 - Arapiles
Atridae Muldoon Area
25 Fail Safe - with Joanna Lazniewska Mixed trad 18m, 3 Very Good
Pretty short, but 2 good sequences on this route. Unsure on the correct beta for the second sequence, but didn't use the glued on blobby thing!

 
Sat 26th Dec 2020 - Arapiles
The Pharos and Surrounds The Pharos Back Wall
24 Raptures of the Steep - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 9m, 4 Good
Yes....Steep.

24 Has It Got a Chevy Motor? - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 12m, 7 Classic
Pumpy warm-up. 2nd shot.

 
Sat 17th Oct 2020 - Mt Coolum
25 Hung Like A Fruit Bat - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 8m, 5 Classic
Great climbing with a heartbreaker finish. 3rd shot.

 
Sun 11th Oct 2020 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Trade sector
24 Trade Route - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 12m, 6 Good
A tough prelude to the smoking routes above it.

 
Sun 27th Sep 2020 - Norton Summit
The Cave
26 Hutt Street Homies - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 7 Very Good
Cool new addition to the Summit.

 
27 Crossroads Direct Finish - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 20m Classic
Good conditions and fresh fingers finally overcame this route after many years of projecting. Have had a love/hate relationship with this route for such a long time, it is hard to not give it a "Classic" quality. For me it was harder than IP and Push'in Payneham, so felt more 28 than 27.

 
Sat 5th Sep 2020 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Lust sector
25 Battery Acid - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 23m, 9 Very Good
Lots of fun with 2 knee pads Had no issues with the crux, but some desperate moments on the final headwall!

 
Sat 25th Jul 2020 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Lust sector
24 Kubanka - with joanna, Joanna Lazniewska Sport 25m, 8 Very Good
Pretty good route that I doubt gets much action, potentially as putting the third draw on can be a bit intimidating. Some great moves through the crux section. A fair bit of loose rock so belayer beware.

 
Sat 27th Jun 2020 - Onkaparinga
Red Cliff Main Wall - Lust sector
22 21 Blades Of Glory - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 26m, 9 Classic
Thu 28th May 2020 - Norton Summit
The Cave
28 Pushin' Into Payneham - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 25m Classic
A multi-year project for me, and definitely the hardest thing I have ticked, so very happy to finally clip the chains. Felt harder than IP. My Vimeo account has footage if you want the beta for the traverse

Mis-read the crux and blew the onsite.

 
Mon 23rd Dec 2019 - Halls Gap Area
South-East Mt Difficult Range The Watchtower
20 Happy Jack - with Joanna Mixed trad 15m, 3 Average
OK climbing, but the bolts protect the easy moves, and leave you run out at the crux, which didn't make much sense. Ended up using some average wires to fill the gap.

 
Tue 17th Dec 2019 - Mitcham Quarries

18 Obsessive Compulsive Disorder - with Joanna Lazniewska Sport 14m, 5 Good
A bit vague as to where to go at the crux. Either up left, or out right. So did it both ways to be sure.

A pretty shaky ascent, almost blowing it at the big move after the crux. But got there in the end.

 
Thu 10th Nov 2011 - Norton Summit
The Hole
26 Diplomacy (DI 1st half) Unknown Average
You probably would travel more than the 30 mins from Adelaide CBD for this route, but I still threw myself at it for many years. Pretty hard in it's current state (with the crux holds wearing away) - hard 27 IMO.

 
Wed 1st Dec 2010 - Bundaleer Area

Good warm-up. Soft for 22.

Ticked many moons ago.

 
Mon 1st Oct 2007 - Peñón de Ifach
South Face
6c+ Costa Blanca Sport 210m
7 pitches of bolted pleasure. The rock quality on some of the routes was a little interesting, but the last pitch made up for it.

 
Mon 1st Oct 2007 - Sella

Finally, revenge for getting blown off this 12 months ago. A 1 very un-16 move wonder

 
Sun 21st Mar 2004 - Arapiles
Voodoo Area Voodoo Buttress
18 Voodoo Trad 65m Classic
What a great climb. First pitch was a bit old-school for me, and I had a few moments. Second pitch was a bit nothing (maybe that's where it looses it's star), but the third pitch was a ripper - reminded me of Flying Buttress at Moonarie.

 

Showing 1 - 100 out of 147 ascents.
