16 Young Dudes - with Elly Trad 20m Blue Mountains Average Sun 21st Jul 2013
I didn't like the gear behind the hollow sounding flake

Nice climbing up the corner to get to the halfway ledge.

14 Sweet Dreams - with Elly Mixed trad 130m, 20 Blue Mountains Classic Sat 10th Sep 2016

22 Bad Luck Silverback Variant Mixed trad 14m, 2 Joll's Bridge Very Good Sat 5th Aug 2017
My first attempt at top rope soloing. I thought it would be a good one because of the nicly placed bolts at the top but I didn't think that this would actually put me on the variant finish at 22.

Managed to drag myself up and the system that I used seemed to work pretty well and safely although I can think of a few improvements to the system which I will try later. In hindsight I should probably have don Chocolate Coated Parents first before jumping on this.

 
22 Pocket Rocket Mixed trad 9m, 1 Wahroonga Very Good Sat 12th Aug 2017
Hard moves down low and then it gets easier towards the top.

 
21 JP Mixed trad 12m, 1 Wahroonga Good Sat 12th Aug 2017
Nice climb with quite a reach in the middle.

 
17 JR Mixed trad 10m, 1 Wahroonga Good Sat 12th Aug 2017
Easier than it looks.

 
16 Chocolate Coated Parents Trad 12m Joll's Bridge Very Good Sat 5th Aug 2017
A couple of laps to get used to the top rope solo set up. Worked quite well.

 
16 Sexy Sue Trad 10m Wahroonga Good Sat 12th Aug 2017
Nice easy climb to try out my new top rope solo set up.

 
16 Sardine Trad 10m Wahroonga Very Good Sat 12th Aug 2017
Great thin crack with some real good jam moves higher up.

 
21 Breaking Good - with Jack Trad 15m Alfords Point Very Good Sat 1st Jul 2017
Really enjoyed this route. The cams in the breaks are good and the move from the first break to the second on crimps is pretty tricky. Well worth a climb.

 
20 Solomon - with Andrew Stevenson, Paul Griffiths
1 15 lead by Matt
2 20 lead by Andrew
Mixed trad 51m, 4 Blue Mountains Classic Sat 5th Sep 2015
Great climb, pretty strenuous through the top crack. Led the first pitch and seconded the top pitch.

 
19 Telstar - with Andrew Stevenson Trad 80m Blue Mountains Mega Classic Sat 8th Apr 2017
Just as good the second time round. Only had to lead the 19 pitch this time instead of the whole lot.

Great climb with lots of solid jamming.

 
16 The Spartan Mixed trad 50m, 4 Blue Mountains Classic Sat 23rd Nov 2013

Nice interesting climb, a bit like a mini watchtower crack.

 
16 Red Robbin Trad 30m Blue Mountains Very Good Sat 24th Sep 2016

This is a great climb, probably one of the best at Barrenjoey.

 
HVS 4c VS 4c Valkyrie - with Paul Griffiths Trad 38m Staffordshire Mega Classic Wed 24th Jun 2015
15 Kodak Moment - with Brendon Flanagan, Ranger Dave Trad 15m Mt Ku-ring-gai Very Good Sun 30th Aug 2015
Great climb, I have been wanting to do this since I saw it last time but didn't have gear with me. Climbed up half way on Brendon Flanagan gear and then finished off the climb.

 
15 Lost property - with Ranger Dave, Brendon Flanagan Mixed trad 15m, 1 Mt Ku-ring-gai Good Sun 30th Aug 2015
Lead on gear placed by Ranger Dave after his first trad climb. An OK climb but not nearly as good as Kodak Moment.

10 Yesterdays Hero's - with Elly Trad 22m New Nowra - Braidwood Road Good Sat 11th Jun 2016

22 Hotel California - with Andrew Sport 330m Blue Mountains Classic Sun 12th Oct 2014
Nice climb, as others have said it is a hard start pitch especially with a heavy bag. The traverse pitch is the pick of the bunch. Overall a very good adventure. 7 hours car to car.

 
21 Archaeopteryx - with Andrew Stevenson Sport 45m, 14 Blue Mountains Good Sun 28th Aug 2016
This route could be very good if the rock wasn't bad in several places. My partner pulled off quite a sizeable hold.

 
19 20 Muriels Wedding and Russells Divorce - with Shawn Sport 12m Blue Mountains Very Good Sun 21st Jul 2013
Nice Climb

 
20 Randy Rabbit Ridge - with Andrew Stevenson Sport 280m, 99 Blue Mountains Very Good Sat 19th Mar 2016
Great new addition to the area, my favourite pitches were 2 and 8 but there was a good amount of climbing throughout.

WARNING: If you are going to climb it any time soon be careful we manage to pull off so pretty large holds. I am sure that this will clear up over time.
