Supposed to be Ben's first trad lead but he chickened out so leading this again. It doesn't come better than this for gear.

The top is very runout - and so it the last half if you run out of small wires. Takes lots.

Blackheath Area Pulpit Rock Bellbird Wall area | ||||||
18 | ★★ Bellbird Wall | 100m, 16 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Absolutely fantastic. Loads of fun and some nice really exposed bits that will get your blood pumping. There is a fair amount on choss and rock that will break right off in your hand, mostly around the route periphery and at pitch ends, so be careful and don't put total faith in anything if you're not safely protected.
With Mike Corkin. I led p1 and p3, Mike p2. All clean.

Leura Sublime Point West Face (Main Area) Middle Cliffs Sweet Dreams Walls | ||||||
17 | ★★ Sweet Dreams Left Variant (Sweet Dreams Variant) | 120m, 12 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Classic for the aspect and exposure.
Linked p1+2 and p3+4.
Nathan led p1+2; I led the rest.
Don't recommend linking 3+4 as there is too much rope drag over the traverse and then all the way up to the belay before the 17.
It's been rebolted and now the only gear needed for the variant is a #3 camalot and a med-lge wire.

Just to clean it from Albi's first lead.
Did it with the direct, totally-not-14, start though just for extra fun.

Only did P1 and it was crap. First hold broke off in my hand that set the scene for the pitch. Scrubby and chossy (and also not 13), P2 looks more interesting but it was getting late and the troops restless...

In the rain. Led p2. Need 2 ropes for p3, which was the whole idea. Never mind. Next I'll read the guidebook before we pack.

Blackheath Area Shipley Upper Grey Slab | ||||||
18 | ★ The Answer is Obvious - with Ali Myers | 20m | ★ Good | |||
15/16 most all the way up, then 18 crux on the last move. Went left for the crux and Ali went right. Staightahead is a no go I think. Thought this was Country Special (as many do) but I checked with John Smoothy and Country Special is to the right and still on carrots.
|
||||||
18 | ★ The Bandoline Grip | 18m, 6 | ★ Good | |||
Run out as hell but easy ground (15) all the way up. Then, like its buddy to the left, another tough crux that makes the grade. Fun but try 'Country Special' first and if you make it, skip this for something else.
