	8	★ Faith	Trad 52m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 18th Jun 2023
More practice for Jack placing gear / finding placements etc He found an awesome thread towards the top!!
	18	★★★ The Eternity — 2 attempts - with Adam Cufer	Trad 22m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 5th Aug 2023
Abseiled down Eternity after doing Carthagian and with the sun and wind; was actually dry!! One clean top rope lap which felt quite nice and quite quick! Decided to hop on and lead it afterwards; Adam had placed 10 pieces to practice on TR. Total of 18 pieces after my lead and moving most of Adam’s pieces 😂 could almost take the red point ? Approx 30 minutes on the wall so improved upon my last effort of 1 hour / 20 pieces!!

	22	★★★ Guillotine Pitch 1 — 2 attempts	Sport 48m, 23	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Wed 30th Jan 2013
Second shot. Used the crap out of that tree, I feel a little guilty! Otherwise, great moves all the way to the top, great climbing!
	23	★★ Searching for the Light	Sport 24m, 14	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 28th May 2017
Worked pretty hard to get this with the bottom section feeling slimey as!
	22	★★ Lardy Lady's Lats	Sport 25m, 13	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 29th Jun 2017
Felt so much easier today, and added style points compared to my flash! Apparently, I used my knee pulling over the lip at the end, but I don't believe I did!!
	23	★★ A Streaker Named Desire	Sport 25m, 13	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 29th Jun 2017
Was fairly pumped at the top, but all good!
	26	★★★ Supercallousfragileextradosage - with Harry Kadi	Sport 25m, 13	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 23rd Jun 2018
Super nervous before pulling on and didn't climb the start very well but somehow managed to pull it off! Camped out in the knee-bar (crawl-in) rest for a while to get it all back for the top; really didn't want to punt the top. YEW!!
	25	★ Digitalicious — 2 attempts - with Ben Molnar	Sport 20m, 12	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 4th May 2024
Onsight didn’t go very well, a lot of useless chalk around. One fall at crux with a bad sequence. Sorted the sequence second go then jugs to the top, but not a drop of chalk along the way, had to brush quite a bit of spider webs off. I sent pretty comfortably second go. Much nicer with beta and draws on. No knee bar, oh, but I can get 4 fingers in the first pocket (with a squeeze) Hop on now, the top is chalked! It’s not a sandbag!
	13	★ Pompadour	Sport 15m, 10	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Wed 27th Nov 2013
Yes, a nice easy short day hahahaha. I liked this more that Trinity.
	13	★ Pompadour	Sport 15m, 10	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Wed 20th May 2015
Clean repeat, haven't gotten THAT weak, good.
	13	★ Pompadour	Sport 15m, 10	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 12th Jun 2016
	22	★★ La Niña	Sport 25m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Mon 5th Mar 2018
Retroflash; quite happy with that due to my lack of climbing or training recently!
	13	★ Pompadour	Sport 15m, 10	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 3rd Jun 2023
Cleaning after Caitlyn’s first lead!!
	13	★ Pompadour	Sport 15m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 10th Sep 2023
Lap up in boots to clean
	25	★★ Binary Neil — 2 attempts - with Ben Molnar, Jack Ferguson	Sport 25m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Mon 1st Apr 2024
Didn’t give it enough juice to get to the back of the hold at the end of the crux first go. Could totally drop it post crux too! Second go, got through crux nicely but nearly came off afterwards trying different beta. Reeled it back in, did a mixture of my original beta and the different beta and just managed to hold on for the send. Super good.
	18	★★ Jolly Good Fellow	Sport 25m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 23rd Dec 2012
Don't know why I got out of bed this morning, sooooooo tired. Everything today was done on a 'draws were already up' basis.
	20	★★ Nice Vice Baby	Sport 20m, 9	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 3rd Feb 2013
Cleaned up this old dog, cruisy climbing to a thought provoking crux up high.
	21	★★ So, Said The King	Sport 20m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 16th Feb 2013
Great warm up, still tough and committing at the crux!
	15	★ The Arrow and the Song	Sport 26m, 9	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 24th Mar 2013
Repeat, ran up in my shiny new Evolv Cruzers!
	20	★★★ Theory of Negativity	Sport 22m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 9th Jan 2014
Repeat and warmup, still feels very solid at 20. Sustained the whole way.
	19	★★ Birthday Bolts	Sport 20m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 9th Jan 2014
Repeat, such spoogy conditions today, not the best for slabbing. Slopers and any flat holds were borderline unusable!
	20	★★ Nice Vice Baby	Sport 20m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 15th Jan 2014
A really nice warmup, not particularly powerful moves at the crux, but technical.
	19	★★ Birthday Bolts	Sport 20m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 5th Jun 2014
Repeat, always an enjoyable slab; I never remember how to do the crux.
	20	★★ Nice Vice Baby — 2 attempts	Sport 20m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tue 7th Jun 2016
Twice, to warm up (never got warm, if anything, we got much colder today)
	19	★★ Birthday Bolts	Sport 20m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 19th Dec 2020
Very nice, zero endurance so I genuinely felt both forearm pump and foot pump on this.
	12	★★ Until Death Do Us Part	Sport 25m, 9	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 17th Jun 2023
Approach shoes, but not as good as Adam in his crocs. Fun climbing alongside Ben on the 14.
	16 ~17	★★★ The Mission — 2 attempts - with Jack Ferguson, Caitlyn	Sport 28m, 9	Wye Creek	★★★ Mega Classic	Mon 11th Dec 2023
Such a good route, awesome moves, positions, holds and length!! Don’t go direct with the bolts the entire way, it is definitely not the grade if you do… Needed a second go, 17 is fair as per guidebook
	22	★★ Sister Rosa — 2 attempts	Sport 18m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 23rd Sep 2012
Two tries. Fell off first time doing the boulder problem, figured out beta from the ground and got it all statically second time around! (I'm short too) Awkward mantle. Fun move out of the lip, and it gets easier as you go up. I got so into it, I almost climbed past the anchor!
	23	★★ Dragon's Egg — 2 attempts	Sport 20m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 3rd Feb 2013
Got it second shot, was made much easier with the help of Paul Thomson's beta! Really enjoyed the crux after the rooflet, great climbing. Scary!
	20 19	★★ Powerbra Rangers	Sport 23m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 9th Feb 2013
Stiff for 19, got me very warm and pumped. Didn't remember a thing from last time.
	22	★★ Nylon Happy	Sport 20m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 9th Feb 2013
First shot of the day (second all up), changed my pre-crux beta up (Thanks to Hannan) and cruised it! Started raining as I got to the anchor. Great!!
	14	★★ Mañana	Sport 22m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Mon 23rd Jun 2014
Repeat, really nice and easy!
	19	★★ Powerbra Rangers	Sport 23m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 25th Jun 2014
So. Cold. Oh my god. Had to fight for it, could not feel my hands from the third bolt until the anchors...
	18	★ Burning Jowls	Sport 18m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 20th May 2015
Touch harder than the one on the right, clean repeat!
	16	★★ Mezzaluna	Sport 25m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Tue 12th Jan 2016
Warmup, easier than the onsight; much concentration on my footwork to not do anything silly...
	19	★★ Powerbra Rangers	Sport 23m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tue 7th Jun 2016
Repeat. Definitely harder than Nice Vice Baby. Definitely.
	18	★ Burning Jowls	Sport 18m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tue 9th Aug 2016
Repeat
	19	★★★ Vanderholics	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Sat 6th May 2017
Warm-up; such a classic.
	23	★★★ Lyptus	Sport 23m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Thu 18th May 2017
And my arch nemesis FINALLY goes down! First tried this 4 years ago to see what a grade 23 was like, and it destroyed me! I only ever came back to Boronia well out of form; so it was great sending it today (first shot!) Spent /forever/ on the slab and was pretty damn pumped.
	24	★★ Funky Monkey	Sport 14m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Fri 30th Mar 2018
Feet came off down low so I decided to campus the roof; woops. Ended up super pumped at the top ...
	17	★★ Hermione	Sport 25m, 8	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 21st Apr 2018
eod lap
	14	★★ Mañana	Sport 22m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Mon 24th Apr 2023
Still a favourite at the grade
	17	★ Burning Jowls	Sport 18m, 8	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 10th Sep 2023
Reachy start, very slabby
	23	★★★ Lyptus - with Ben Molnar, Caitlyn, Jack Ferguson, Laura Newman	Sport 23m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 24th Mar 2024
Unsent last time, happy to resend end of day today. Such good fun and probably the best I’ve done the slab!
	23	★★ The Never Believers — 2 attempts - with Ben Molnar, Jack Ferguson	Sport 15m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 30th Mar 2024
Unbelievably busy at the crag, over 20 people?? It was available but not a very good warm up. Really nice climbing once you’ve got the sequence! Second go.
	16	★★ Mezzaluna - with Jack Ferguson, Caitlyn	Sport 25m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 18th May 2024
Repeat to clean, find me a better 16 in the mountains? Long with a lot of climbing for the grade.
	21	★★ Negative Funk	Sport 15m, 7	The Woolwash	★★ Very Good	Mon 26th Aug 2013
Goddamn, about time. First shot today as a 'warm-up', did go relatively easy; except the very last move.
	18	★★ Johnny's Jalopies	Sport 20m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 11th Dec 2013
Repeat. Jug City! This whole wall can be made ridiculously easy with good technique.
	21	★★ Thirty Three Years	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 9th Jan 2014
Repeat, very nice climbing with a cool crux. Bit of a run out at the end, it's easy ground, but I don't trust the rock here! Had some tiny pieces of rock kicked at me while belaying on this as well.
	19	★★ Choc Chip Chai	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Thu 9th Jan 2014
Pumpy EOD repeat. The final sequence went easily today, grabbed all the right holds!
	21	★★ Lady Grinning Soul	Sport 25m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 2nd Feb 2014
Repeat, pleasant warm up after that undercling move.
	21	★★ Thirty Three Years	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 5th Jun 2014
Better than the slab next to it; so enjoyable! Crux is great, love it every single time.
	23	★ Off the Lip — 2 attempts	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 7th Oct 2015
Should've flashed... Just didn't commit over the roof. Second shot send was stylish with an awesome cut loose, yeah!
	23	★ Off the Lip	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 18th Oct 2015
Clean repeat, more stylish this time.
	24	★★ Troc de l’Ile — 2 attempts	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 4th Sep 2016
Second shot! Didn't think I was gonna do this, but it went with a sore finger! Rest time now...
	25	★★★ Madge McDonald - with Lewis	Sport 12m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Mon 24th Apr 2017
Sent second shot pretty smoothly!
	26	★★★ Bogan Direct - with Paul Frothy Thomson	Sport 7m, 7	The Woolwash	★★ Very Good	Wed 16th Aug 2017
Got the last big move by the skin of my teeth; yew! Super fun little route.
	16	★ Rabbit Season, Duck Season	Sport 12m, 7	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 15th Oct 2017
Definitely not getting flash pumped again today, slow warm up 1
	18	★ A Tale of Two Cities	Sport 12m, 7	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 7th Jan 2018
Too hot, melting
	18	★★ Johnny's Jalopies	Sport 20m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tue 16th Jan 2018
Probably my favourite one here!
	20	★★ Mr Christmas Poo	Sport 20m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tue 16th Jan 2018
Bit wandery, but good fun
	20	★★ Go Lotto	Sport 22m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 17th Mar 2018
Repeat; quite a hard move as a shortie; I static'd it but Lewis actually deadpointed!
	20	★★ Go Lotto - with Ben Molnar, Jack Ferguson, Caitlyn	Sport 22m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 17th Dec 2023
Repeat, nice and cruisy, hung around for a while helping caitlyn with beta for Starman.
	24	★★★ Holy Leaping Shortarses, Batman — 2 attempts - with Ben Molnar, Jack Ferguson, Caitlyn	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 17th Dec 2023
Was feeling under the weather so didn’t intend to hop on, but the whole wall was in the shade so figured why not?? One lap for figuring out beta then second lap to send. No falls but definitely needed specific beta. Awesome slab moves. Zero leaps for me at 169cm with a positive ape index and some delicate footwork! That fortnight of doing the slabs with Ben at the boulder gyms paid off!! Happy to have ticked everything on the little triggers wall now.
	25	★★★ Madge McDonald — 2 attempts - with Jack Ferguson, Lewis	Sport 12m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Fri 29th Dec 2023
Forgot all the microbeta and footers so I cut loose a few too many times, but went first go! Pretty happy considering I didn’t hit many holds correctly and also forgot the top beta. Did a second dogging lap to put the draws back up for Jack and brush the holds.
	18	★ A Tale of Two Cities - with Jack Ferguson, Ben Molnar, Caitlyn, Campbell Ferguson	Sport 12m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 6th Jan 2024
Right after the 16
	18	★★ Johnny's Jalopies	Sport 20m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 21st Jan 2024
Fun jug hauling, you can avoid the crux crimp and undercling if you wish
	21	★★ Flash Flood - with Ben Molnar, Jack Ferguson	Sport 18m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 1st Apr 2024
A nice warm up, except I definitely did the crux wrong (big drive by) Repeat from 10+ years ago
	19	★★ Mike and Lorna go to Town	Sport 25m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 15th Sep 2012
A 19 in the guidebook. Definitely not a 21. Crux is down low, it's not too difficult. Foot slipped near the bottom on my onsight attempt, lowered down and got second time around.
	19	★★ Mike and Lorna go to Town	Sport 25m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 23rd Dec 2012
Slightly tricky finish. Repeat.
	18	★ The Bandoline Grip	Sport 18m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 30th Dec 2012
Repeat. Very pleasant and cruisy, with one hardish move at the top (don't veer left, that's cheating).
	21	★ Whimsical — 2 attempts	Sport 12m, 6	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Fri 12th Sep 2014
Came off at the top first shot, mixed up hands Second time, no problems.
	24	★★ Jaqueline Hyde — 2 attempts	Sport 15m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 21st Oct 2015
Got it second shot today, wooh! Top is awesome.
	18	★ The Bandoline Grip	Sport 18m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 21st May 2016
Repeat
	19	★★ Mike and Lorna go to Town	Sport 25m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 19th Apr 2017
Repeat; warm down, was fairly pumped actually...
	18	★ Gina Hardface	Sport 15m, 6	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Sat 6th May 2017
Slimey as today; but wasn't letting go!!!
	18	★ The Bandoline Grip	Sport 18m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 29th May 2017
Warm-up
	19	★★ Mike and Lorna go to Town	Sport 25m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 21st Apr 2018
lap
	24	★ PHM3	Sport 10m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 25th Jun 2018
Dead-pointed through the crux and landed with two fingers / one pad on the jug; somehow managed to hold on...
	21	★ Whimsical	Sport 12m, 6	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 19th Dec 2020
Retro-flash but I still think it’s easy for the grade??
	19	★★ Mike and Lorna go to Town	Sport 25m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 9th Jan 2021
Repeat, warm-up
	18	★ The Bandoline Grip	Sport 18m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 10th Sep 2023
Easiest the top has ever felt (slight right at top) Also the only free route on the entire wall today (around noon)
	24	★★ Voice of America — 2 attempts - with Jack Ferguson, Ben Molnar, Caitlyn, Campbell Ferguson	Sport 20m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 6th Jan 2024
Second last draw still sucks to put on, changed my beta for the send (by not going extremely direct) and that made it much easier!
	20	★★ Hark! The ..	Sport 15m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 21st Jan 2024
Nice climbing and features
	19	★★ Mike and Lorna go to Town	Sport 25m, 6	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Fri 26th Jan 2024
Repeat, not as nice as I remembered. Quite a hard top? (Went quite direct though)
	21	★★ Lady Stardust	Sport 21m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Fri 26th Jan 2024
Rpt Climbs well, maybe a bit daunting if at your limit?
	11	★ Go Back To Switzerland	Sport 12m, 6	Blue Mountains	Average	Sun 28th Jan 2024
Up and down lead in approachies
	22	★ Lay la Kay	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 26th Sep 2012
Kind friend put up the draws for me and I got it first shot today after working it on Sunday, so stoked! Cruxy start, good holds when you need them too!
	16	★★ The Sisters of Fatima	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 5th Dec 2012
Repeat, easy day with a lady friend today! Down in Dams to avoid the wind.
	16	★★ The Sisters of Fatima	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Fri 4th Jan 2013
Repeat. Came here for a swim, why not do a little bit of cruisy climbing?
	19	★ Ancient Mariner	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Fri 11th Jan 2013
Repeat, good warm up! Waiting for the main wall to get into shade.
	20	★ Resistor - with lucky chance	Sport 20m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 17th Apr 2013
First attempt today! I still think it is harder than 20 though. The crux is just too damn hard.
	23	★★ Nev Herrod	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 30th Dec 2013
All moves (including the direct start) went very easily first shot today! Very fun!
	24	★ Hitlistless — 2 attempts	Sport 15m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 2nd Jan 2014
Second shot, with difficulty... Start has very strenuous moves, there's a little run out to the third bolt; and a very committing sequence on nothing holds above it. Another dose of commitment going through the rooflet; just managed to snatch the last hold. The gym hold doesn't detract from the climbing (it is the first hold), it is a very nice technical route.
	16	★★ The Sisters of Fatima	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 13th Jan 2014
Repeat, approach shoes
	26	★ Turkey Slap — 2 attempts - with Chris S	Sport 7m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Wed 16th Apr 2014
Crux went pretty easily on first shot, but just couldn't keep it together! Dogged to put up the rest of the quickdraws. Had a few muck-ups on the next few shots but finally put it together for the send! First 26!
	25	★★ Atoms in Action — 3 attempts - with Thanjon M	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 20th Dec 2015
Did need three attempts, draws on + refining beta on first shot; foot slip on the second and send on the third! Woo!
	17	★ Cardinal Fang	Sport 15m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 20th Dec 2015
A tough 17! repeat
	23	★★ Nev Herrod	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 15th Aug 2016
Successful repeat, yay! Cruised it
	19	★ Ancient Mariner - with Matt, Chris, Lachy	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 8th Apr 2017
Repeat; still pumpy for me haha
