Great fun trundling

A bit thin on the underclings, go right a fair bit on these before going up.

Sussing this out for guiding

Such a mega route and nice and sparse on the gear to, soooo much fun. A little side not is that it is (17) according to the current Araps guide which is probably pretty accurate although that Araps trad routes for you ;-).

Not sure about the description on this you can get a number 1 and a 0.75 Camalot in this in the break close to the ground and the runout is up high. I did this in the early 90s with Aidan Banfield, description here say Unknown 2000.

Great route, take some long slings for this one. Sort of forgot that bit lol

Still a classic

Good fun little boulder with a bolt and rope lol

Such a cool route.

Such a great finish.

Cool, originally done in 90.

Fun.

Awesome route, finish direct up Take Fives final pitch

Surprisingly good

Good if you dont like your ankles, or just dont fall off the crux.

Hardfor the grade.

Really good

Great easy route

Instructing

Thin gear required, safe and relatively bouldery.

Great value, a few fun moves but the rest is relatively easy.

Cool fun route, and better gear than it looks.

Fantastic route that is as good as some of the other easy classics and very atmospheric also. Worth a run up just to claim the summit of the Pharos. Watch the loose block on the 3rd pitch seems locked it but looks like a good hold till you touch it lol

Rather entertaining when you are wearing someone others shoes that are 4 sizes to big lol

Fantastic climbing although read the book wrong and took the 18 jam crack option which was a little awkward in places, but mega.

Bit dirty from its recent retrieval from the jungle and cleaning but a really fun route.

Wow, cool holds in cool territory, but the hardest bit is getting to the start of the extension then its just pumpy jugs but sooo cool

Mega pumper with lots of very hidden holds.

Cool finished, nearly got schooled on the middle when i got crossed up. Got told this was 5.9 so expecting a cruise. Sandbaggers.

So good its not funny jugs just appear everytime you think its going to get hard but dam it gets steep.

Fun. Will get better as it cleans up, andthe moss goes. Nice moves though

Slightly easier than Sadako

Tricky hard to find holds at the top. replaced all the slings with bolts. Much better protected now.

Great fun

That top wall is mega, technical and powerful on very small pockets. Struggled minorly to find a sequence first shot but stoked to nail it second go Woo hoo

One of the best here.

Cool, bouldery but more sustained than Pang.

Great fun.

Really enjoyed thisnow that it wasnt in the 40 degree heat.

Really hanging corner type thing.
