16 6a | ★★★ The Groove Tube | 25m, 11 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Most fun climb I've done for a long time. Aesthetically pleasing, great views, fun moves, huge megajugs where you want them, well protected, steep enough to be interesting, and much softer than its grade suggested. I struggled on a lot of Tonsai 6a's and this felt a lot easier.

6a | ★ Caroline's Last Day P1 | 22m, 9 | ★ Good | |||
Quite a scary start - juggy, but overhanging and with ground fall potential on the second clip. I heard a new leader had fallen here a few weeks back and broke her ankles... focuses the mind. The rest of the climb up the tunnel is fun and well protected. The top pitch was soaking so we didn't do it - probably only dry in the dry season.

Would be more fun without the crowds. Pumpy start then easy.

nice positive well protected climb
|

5 | ★ Mot Daeng | 20m, 6 | ★ Good | |||
Another good easy climb. Straight up and then veer right around the shield-shaped steep bit. Chock Dee goes to the left around the shield and is a little harder.
|
||||||
6a | ★ Chok Dee (Chock Dee) | 20m, 6 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Good climbing on clean well protected rock. Amazing limestone to climb on. Had a troop of mangrove monkeys join me on the climb - far bettter climbers than I'll ever be, they were both entertaining and discouraging as they free-solo downclimbed sections I could not get up!

second time I've done it, would be happy to do it each time I visit - as long as I can do it when there are no people there...

5.10a | ★ Shower Colon | 8m | ★ Good | |||
Interesting and sometimes awkward climb. I used the tree at the top which makes it easier - next time I'll try without.

Chigasaki Rock Cinderella face | ||||||
5.8 | Tom Sawyer | 20m | ||||
Up the gully / groove to the right of Pumpkin Coach. A nice climb spoiled by very old and mostly psychological pro - badly needs re-equipping.
Descent Options: You could lower off a bunch of old manky tat attached precariously to rusty bolts and fraying ropes like I did - or pull your rope and step over to the top of Cinderella and lower off that. Anchors badly need replacing. |

easy, good clean fun

5.10a 5.10a/b | ★★ Anne | 10m, 4 | ||||
Nice route, got the onsight but only just... steeper than it looks at the crux
|
||||||
5.10b | ★★ Ali Baba | 10m, 3 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Short, steeper than it looks, with delicate fingery crux. Well protected so a good lead for new to the grade. Took one fall.

Good intro to the area, it is a trade route and always crowded. Well protected, good for the new leader.

Took three tries to get through this - one move wonder, but interestingly technical. Scary descent.

Chigasaki Rock Tougenkyou | ||||||
5.10a | ★ Sunset | 9m, 3 | ||||
Short but sweet. Juggy first section leads to interesting crux - great pocket hold out right and looong reach for next holds. Will lead it next time.
|
||||||
5.10a | ★ Abracadabra | 6m, 2 | ||||
My first 5.10 in the wild for a long time, but its only a few moves long, a highball boulder problem with 2 bolts. Nice climb for all that.

A Joyama classic, excellent route. I led the easy pitches, my partner did the 5.10a crux and the last (somewhat runout) pitch.
