	15	★★ WW3	Unknown 50m	North Head	★★★ Classic	Sun 4th Jan 1976
The first pitch is absolute choss. The second pitch is one of the better Sydney sea cliff routes I have climbed. Maybe best rap into bunker

	8	★★ Shandy - with Donna Gilbert 1 lead by Brett_Gilbert 2 lead by Donna Gilbert	Mixed trad 99m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Fri 5th Jun 2015
Fun little adventure. Scramble up gulley from main access track to base of climb. Took the traverse exit left at the end of the second pitch. Plenty of hangers (new and ancient), carrots and rings. 2hr 15 mins C2C at a relaxed pace.

	16	★★★ The Spartan - with Sharn 1 14 lead by Sharn 2 16 lead by Brett Gilbert 3 14 lead by Sharn	Mixed trad 50m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 28th Feb 2016
Great to knock this over on my second attempt. Super thrutchy throughout the 2nd pitch. Definitely need to remember to take a number 6 Camelot if I do this route again. Can be done with a 5, but it is horrible shuffling it up the offwidth. Also a smart move to take a set of nuts for building the belay at the top of the 2nd pitch.
	15	★★★ Tombstone Wall - with Donna Gilbert	Mixed trad 30m, 3	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 29th Mar 2015
Great climb. As is often the case at Piddo, the hardest moves are just off the deck. (note to self: Don't lay back start. Do it face on). Fun fiddling with bolt plates on below average stance before traversing right. Ran it out up head wall (easier and. Probably safer for me than fiddling with gear) . What Blueys climbing is all about.

What a line! Finally got to plug in some of the giant camelots (Thanks Paul Griffiths ). Donna found a grade 16 way to do pitch 2. I did the 3rd and 4th pitches as a 50m rope stretcher (I would not recommend this with a 50m rope). With all the gear (boat anchors included) the 3rd pitch was tough going. Definitely glad I had the 5 & 6 camelots though.

	13	★ Ivan - with Donna Gilbert	Trad 14m	Arapiles	★ Good	Thu 31st Mar 2016
Thought provoking bouldery start. I would say this route is more like a 15. Keeps you honest. Good gatekeeper to Blockbuster ledge.
	15	★ Lady Dihedral - with Donna Gilbert	Trad 78m	Arapiles		Fri 1st Apr 2016
Great alternative to the chimney exit of Lamplighter. The crux is getting into the dihedral. There is a good left hand sidepull up high.

	14	★★ Pledge a Legend	Trad 16m	Barrenjoey	★★ Very Good	Sun 10th Apr 2011
Good protection except for the crux mantle after the traverse, pretty slopey at the top above the bolt. I think a 14 grade is sandbagged 16

We started at the BB variant scratched in the rock. Went up slightly right before traversing left. Then arced left before taking the arete.

	17	★★★ Mari - with Donna Gilbert	Trad 35m	Arapiles	★★★ Mega Classic	Sun 27th Mar 2016
A few nice jams in the middle section. I only had enough energy in me to place a psychological nut at the lip of the roof (even though there are plenty of spots for gear) and then go for it. Nice to get the onsite.
