26 Fists of Fury - with Dave J Trad 20m Arapiles Average Mon 27th Oct 2014
26 26 R Gorilla Tactics Sport 15m Victoria Range Good Tue 3rd Nov 2015
26 25 Mr Meat - Weaveworld - Chain Of Fools Sport 16m Victoria Range Good Tue 3rd Nov 2015
25 Trojan Mixed trad 86m, 2 Arapiles Classic Thu 5th Nov 2015
Had Wendy's gear in. Great climbing.

 
25 The Low Down - with Ken Mixed trad 25m, 2 Arapiles Very Good Wed 11th Nov 2015
25 Top of the Food Chain Trad 20m Mt Stuart Very Good Tue 23rd Oct 2018
24 Astral Plane Mixed trad 15m, 2 Arapiles Good Mon 29th Sep 2014
Good but not two stars as I recall.

 
24 It'll Never Fly - with Edwin Sport 20m, 4 Arapiles Very Good Sun 29th Sep 1991
Good fun but HAGF is the better route if you have the juice.

 
24 Indoctrination Mixed trad 25m, 1 Arapiles Very Good Thu 23rd Oct 2014
Needs rebolting. The start is crimpy and not that great. It's a better route to do the start of Claw and join the traverse at about 4m. Gear is not totally bomber with a shallow cam pretty much all between you and the ground.

 
24 Out of the Blue - with Martin Tatton Trad 70m Arapiles Good Sat 28th Mar 2015
The roof is good climbing, the crux is mantling onto the slab over the lip! Worth a star.

 
23 24 Fault Line - with Paul Hoskins Mixed trad 25m, 1 Arapiles Good Fri 1st May 2015
It was a long time ago, but seemed more like 23

 
24 Two Tribes Sport 15m Victoria Range Classic Tue 3rd Nov 2015
24 Deep Throat - with Wayne Webb Trad 15m Arapiles Average Wed 4th Nov 2015
A bit thin on gear

 
23 24 Jilted Mixed trad 15m, 3 Arapiles Very Good Wed 4th Nov 2015
Great climbing, probably 23, bolts need replacing. Takes a small wire after last bolt.

Mixed trad 40m, 1 Arapiles Average Thu 12th Nov 2015
Just the first pitch - after which the rope we were using disintegrated spectacularly. Glad I didn't fall off!

 
24 Strange Tenants - with Paul Hoskins Mixed trad 30m, 1 Arapiles Good Sun 15th Nov 2015
24 The Price You Pay Direct Trad 20m Bundaleer Area Average Sun 3rd Jan 2016
24 Bitching and Back Stabbing Mixed trad 12m, 2 Frog Buttress Good Mon 4th Jul 2016
An interesting move or two but short

 
24 Serenade for Strings Trad 35m Frog Buttress Average Mon 15th Aug 2016
23 Loudly Inferior - with Cate Trad 10m Arapiles Average Mon 3rd Sep 2012
Hard finish is out of keeping - The Squeaky Wheel is much better

 
23 23 R Luxury Item - with Marty Trad 15m Arapiles Don't Bother Wed 8th Oct 2014
Not that great. RPs at the start, it's a bit bold but the climbing and rock are not that great.

 
23 23 R Kookenhagen Mixed trad 20m, 1 Arapiles Average Wed 8th Oct 2014
Not worth a star. There is gear to protect you before the bolt but the rock is pretty questionable. Climbing isn't that special.

 
23 Purple Denotes Bruising Mixed trad 10m, 3 Arapiles Average Wed 8th Oct 2014
This is the only route I can think of that I don't think should have been rebolted. The bolts were so obviously rubbish from the day they were put in that it made it quite atmospheric - a bolted death route. Now it's not really worth doing, as the climbing is just average.

 
23 Beside Myself Mixed trad 30m, 2 Arapiles Good Wed 8th Oct 2014
Thought this was good but not two stars. Have done second pitch, remember it being loose feeling and not much gear but don't remember the climbing being great. Might be worth doing it again.

 
23 Iron Void Trad 20m Arapiles Very Good Fri 10th Oct 2014
I found this scary. The wires at the start take a lot of finding, and the top is runout above a dead tree to impale yourself on!

 
23 A Plaything For the Missus Mixed trad 15m, 2 Arapiles Good Fri 10th Oct 2014
Bolts need replacing

 
23 Crayons - with Donna Trad 25m Arapiles Good Fri 1st May 2015
Hard scary start to desperate finish. Not 22, at all.

 
23 Crystal Prophet - with ross taylor Trad 15m Arapiles Good Fri 1st May 2015
Start is a bit goey, even with bolt clipped. Crux moving out from top of flake feels blind and exposed and out there - but the runner is really not that far away. It just feels far away.

 
23 Hard Snort - with Chad Albinger Mixed trad 20m, 1 Arapiles Don't Bother Fri 16th Oct 2015
I didn't think this was worth a star... or even worth doing again.

 
23 High Kicks Mixed trad 13m, 1 Arapiles Good Mon 19th Oct 2015
23 Chain of Fools Sport 15m Victoria Range Very Good Tue 3rd Nov 2015
24 23 Strapping Trad 15m Arapiles Good Tue 3rd Nov 2015
One very hard move...

 
23 23 R Moving Right Along Trad 14m Arapiles Good Wed 4th Nov 2015
Finish is runout, not the start.

 
23 23 R Ferrets and Berts - with Jessie Rushbrooke Mixed trad 30m, 1 Arapiles Good Thu 5th Nov 2015
I did the sensible version - up XI to to the top of the crack, then L to the bolt. I found it quite technical, puzzling and blind. Good!

 
23 Pulpy Kidney - with Rob Oliver Mixed trad 15m, 2 Arapiles Average Thu 5th Nov 2015
Has new bolts, yay.

 
23 Nostalgia Mixed trad 20m, 1 Arapiles Don't Bother Tue 10th Nov 2015
Rusty bolt, fragile rock, dodgy gear, don't bother.

 
23 Birdman of Alcatraz - with Dave Jones Trad 30m Arapiles Classic Fri 21st Jan 1994
On my 23rd birthday!

 
23 Snow Blind Mixed trad 15m, 1 Arapiles Very Good Fri 13th Nov 2015
Very good but slick

 
23 Fever Pitch Mixed trad 30m, 2 Arapiles Very Good Sat 14th Nov 2015
23 Haphazard - with estherenita Trad 15m Arapiles Very Good Sat 14th Nov 2015
Great - hard, continuous and varied. Only just managed to squeak up this one.

 
23 Lunatic Mixed trad 25m, 3 Arapiles Classic Sat 14th Nov 2015
If only it didn't have the rest in the gully.. fabulous climbing. A small cam (green alien? blue alien? I forget) is a very, very good idea to back up (or replace) the peg.

 
23 Inextricably - with Cate Webb Trad 12m Arapiles Good Sat 14th Nov 2015
23 Just Out of Habit Trad 20m Arapiles Good Sat 14th Nov 2015
I saw Moorhead/Muir '81 in the guide and prepared myself to be sandbagged - but it is fair for 23 and the gear is ok - just an exception to keep you on your toes. Crux is not as nice as the rest of the route.

 
23 Hokey Pokey - with Martin Tatton Mixed trad 10m, 1 Arapiles Good Sat 14th Nov 2015
23 Pain Criminals Link-up - with Geordie Webb Sport 18m, 9 Pohlner Track & Smith's Rd Area Very Good Sat 12th Mar 2016
Great varied climbing on nearly all big holds

 
23 Nosy Business Mixed trad 20m, 4 Frog Buttress Average Mon 4th Jul 2016
Don't really remember this, the climbing didn't stand out.

 
23 Day of the Jackal Trad 28m Frog Buttress Very Good Mon 15th Aug 2016
I had a great experience on this.. a bit scared, at my limit, but got up it. I thought it was great but YMMV

 
23 Baby Staysharp Sport 7m, 2 Frog Buttress Good Mon 15th Aug 2016
My first 23 flash

 
23 Go-between Trad 18m Frog Buttress Good Mon 15th Aug 2016
I thought this was really nice, and I think the gear would be better these days with micro cams. Could be 22.

 
23 Chemical Adrenalin Mixed trad 24m, 4 Frog Buttress Very Good Mon 15th Aug 2016
Found this hard, maybe 24?

 
23 Rude Awakening (Rude Awakenings) Mixed trad 5m, 2 Mt Stuart Very Good Tue 23rd Oct 2018
23 Twister and Beyond Mixed trad 13m, 3 Mt Stuart Very Good Tue 23rd Oct 2018

23 He Who Snoozes Loses Mixed trad 17m, 3 Mt Stuart Good Tue 23rd Oct 2018
22 Witch Craft - with Andrew Clark Trad 40m Arapiles Good Sun 2nd Sep 2012
It's definitely not 18. The start is about 21 and then you pull through the roof on a 2 finger pocket (crux) and end by mantling a horn on the arete.

 
22 22 R Plimsoll Line Trad 15m Arapiles Don't Bother Mon 29th Sep 2014
Really not that great, and quite scary now that the pins have fallen out.

 
22 Glory Rodent Trad 20m Arapiles Classic Wed 8th Oct 2014
Fabulous steep jamming. Wonderful.

 
22 Easy Does It Mixed trad 12m, 2 Arapiles Good Wed 8th Oct 2014
Tricky and pumpy at the top

 
22 Guideline Trad 8m Arapiles Good Fri 10th Oct 2014
Cute!

 
22 Private Detective Trad 12m Arapiles Good Fri 10th Oct 2014
Always a little scary.

 
22 Squeakeasy Trad 30m Arapiles Mega Classic Mon 13th Oct 2014
Reproductive-organ-tearing-megaclassic. There is a small wire in the jug on the right after the first bulge.

 
22 Straw Dogs Trad 11m Arapiles Very Good Tue 14th Oct 2014
Pretty tough!

 
22 Follow Your Nose Mixed trad 12m, 1 Arapiles Good Wed 29th Apr 2015
Take care with gear.

 
22 Continuum Trad 25m Arapiles Good Fri 1st May 2015
I'd give it one star. A bit runout through and after the crux and rock is a bit dodgy up high

 
22 Loading Zone - with Paul Hoskins Trad 25m Arapiles Good Fri 1st May 2015
22 Hidden Secrets Trad 25m Arapiles Good Fri 1st May 2015
This route's ok but I don't seem to love it like everyone else.

 
22 Linear Transformation Trad 25m Arapiles Good Fri 1st May 2015
Utterly desperate start with worrying gear, at the top is a slightly desperate corner with slightly worrying gear.

 
22 Blackguard Trad 25m Arapiles Good Fri 1st May 2015
Good I remember, with a great wire slot in the blankest part.

 
22 22 X Blyth Street Direct Start - with Paul Hoskins Trad 12m Arapiles Average Fri 1st May 2015
Jesus fracking Christ. Didn't know what I was getting myself in for. First runner is at about half height. After that I took note of Warwick Baird routes!

 
22 Vapour Trail - with Cate Webb Trad 15m Arapiles Good Wed 23rd Sep 2015
Interesting and fun. Had a hillarious ascent with Cate where I clawed my way up getting pumped out of my brain, then Cate floated up finding all manner of rests including a no hands kneebar where I was most pumped!

 
22 Mediterranean Sundance Trad 20m Arapiles Good Mon 5th Oct 2015
Better starting from Anything At All and traversing in.

 
22 Dreaming of Reconciliation - with adam demmert, @cathdv Sport 39m, 8 South-Eastern Grampians Very Good Thu 8th Oct 2015
Good climbing, brittle rock - and thankfully we had Adam there to tell us to lower off a ring bolt before the top, where it gets really loose. Funky crux at the start - I could imagine falling off this a lot.

 
22 Nihilism Trad 18m Arapiles Good Mon 19th Oct 2015
22 Day of Rest Direct Finish - with Cate Webb Trad 30m Arapiles Good Mon 19th Oct 2015
Exciting crux above the gear.

 
22 No Future Direct Mixed trad 30m, 1 Arapiles Good Thu 22nd Oct 2015
22 Eat More Meat - with estherenita Trad 30m Arapiles Good Thu 22nd Oct 2015
Classic slick desperate Arapiles seam.

 
22 Boogie Boogie - with Wendy Eden Trad 10m Arapiles Good Mon 2nd Nov 2015
22 Quisling Direct Start Trad 22m Arapiles Very Good Tue 3rd Nov 2015
Technical and pumpy placing the gear

 
22 I Can't Believe it's not Chaconne - with Wendy Eden Trad 10m Arapiles Average Wed 4th Nov 2015
22 Los Endos Trad 40m Arapiles Very Good Wed 4th Nov 2015
Loose feeling and not that well protected. Double ropes are good.

 
22 22 R Jeepers Mixed trad 8m, 1 Arapiles Good Wed 4th Nov 2015
The bolt is rubbish, and you might hit the ground off the crux even if it held.

 
23 22 Dreadnought Variant Trad 12m Arapiles Classic Wed 4th Nov 2015
22 Feral Chicken Mixed trad 20m, 1 Arapiles Very Good Thu 5th Nov 2015
I have got a wire in before the bolt, but it seems to be a very specific size as I have gone up twice subsequently and not been able to place it. Best solution is to take a clip stick!

 
22 Fear of Flying Trad 12m Arapiles Don't Bother Thu 5th Nov 2015
22 Wall Street Trad 25m Arapiles Very Good Tue 10th Nov 2015
Pumpy placing the gear... and doing the finish. Steeper than it looks

 
22 Scorpion Corner Trad 25m Arapiles Very Good Wed 11th Nov 2015
Gear on the top corner all feels a little iffy. Tiny cams help. Friends said they saw Peter Croft solo up and down this, and that it actually looked easier coming down.

 
22 Acrobat Trad 20m Arapiles Average Wed 11th Nov 2015
22 Siva Mixed trad 12m, 1 Arapiles Good Wed 11th Nov 2015
A few good moves

 
22 Drivetime Mixed trad 8m, 2 Arapiles Good Fri 13th Nov 2015
22 White Heat - with Kate Dooley Trad 20m Arapiles Very Good Fri 13th Nov 2015
22 In Lemon Butter Trad 15m Arapiles Very Good Fri 13th Nov 2015
You think you've done the crux, but you haven't.

 
22 Black Spasm - with Paul Deacon Trad 20m Arapiles Good Sat 14th Nov 2015
Eases a lot after the roof. Some bees nearby.

 
23 22 Celluloid Heroes - with Gareth Llewellin Trad 25m Arapiles Very Good Sat 14th Nov 2015
Interesting and varied.

 
23 22 Hyperbola Left Hand Variant Trad 15m Arapiles Good Mon 16th Nov 2015
Maybe 23?

 
22 Goodbye Trad 30m Arapiles Very Good Tue 17th Nov 2015
Keep traversing! Excitement plus.

 
22 Lunging for Melons Sport 15m, 5 Bundaleer Area Very Good Sun 3rd Jan 2016
Very odd!

 
22 Yeah, Yeah, Yeah! Trad 28m Frog Buttress Don't Bother Sat 2nd Jul 2016
22 Yodel up the Valley Trad 22m Frog Buttress Average Sat 2nd Jul 2016
Not that memorable.

 
22 Tight Lips and Cold Feet Trad 20m Frog Buttress Good Sat 2nd Jul 2016
Good at the start, I remember having a wobble up higher at a slabby bit and some hollow sounding rock.

 
23 22 Insomnia Trad 40m Frog Buttress Don't Bother Mon 4th Jul 2016
Everyone, it seems, loves this route except me. It's a good looking line but there is a frightening amount of loose rock in the first half, an unpleasant slopey mantle and then a quite avoidable offwidth. The climbing's just not very good.
