V3 V4 Cobb Loaf Boulder 4m Toohey Forest Wed 20th Jan 2016
As a stand start, I don't think it's V4, but I couldn't say what it is with any kind of accuracy.

 
23 Talking with the Tax Man - with Kurt Doherty Sport 8m, 4 Flinders Peak (limited access) Good Tue 25th Oct 2016
Happy with this. Haven't onsighted anything for quite a while, and I think this is the hardest I've done. The start was funky to sequence, then its just keep it together till the chains.

The rock is a bit crapola, but this and the 24 are both worthy routes imo.

 
6c+ 24 Chopper Shopper (Chopper Stopper) Sport 15m Spitzkoppe & The Pontoks Classic Thu 9th Jun 2016
Thought this was the 19 - a very stiff warm up. Just squeaked it.

22/23AU

 
V2 V3 Pustekuchen Boulder 4m Toohey Forest Wed 20th Jan 2016
Not good with bouldering grades, but it felt easy for V3.

21 Bobby Dazzler Sport 12m, 4 Pages Pinnacle Good Thu 7th Jan 2016
Bit of a tricky one on the onsight with the excessive amount of features and the run out finish. Moves are very straightforward once you find the holds though.

 
21 Hysteria Lane Sport 25m, 11 Victoria Range Mon 22nd Feb 2016
Back log. Was very happy with this onsight - I remember there being a fantastic crux move on a flake.

 
21 Jaws Sport 15m, 4 Blue Mountains Mon 3rd Apr 2017
Warm up.

 
21 Cowboy Clip Sport 10m Blue Mountains Very Good Thu 6th Apr 2017
Draw retrieval mission. Fun jug haul.

 
21 Hazzard County - with Luciana Albuquerque Sport 12m Blue Mountains Good Mon 25th Sep 2017
Some thin crimpage, a bit of a dodgey second clip. Otherwise OK.

 
V2 Blunt Boulder 3m Toohey Forest Very Good Wed 20th Jan 2016
Had an epic. Spent what felt like 2 minutes beached whaled on the top as Alex through up a chalk bag. Finally squirmed up with absolutely no style.

 
V1 V2 Ear Boulder 4m Toohey Forest Good Wed 27th Jan 2016
Same difficulty as the other stuff imo. Not quite as nice.

 
V2 Slabby cobbles Boulder 3m Toohey Forest Average Wed 27th Jan 2016
Interesting movement on some strange holds and very thin feet.

 
V2 Slap-a-crack Boulder 3m White Rock Conservation Area Sat 27th Aug 2016
V2 Edges like a babies bum Boulder 3m White Rock Conservation Area Sat 27th Aug 2016
Linked into this from stand-start at the arete.

 
V2 Miami Slicer Boulder 3m North Burleigh Bouldering Good Sat 8th Oct 2016
20 You Can't Touch This Sport 8m, 2 Coffs Harbour Very Good Fri 3rd Oct 2014
Way too short, but sick move to pull up to, and over, the roof. Found a knee bar that worked sweet. As earlier comment, needs another bolt lower down to be safe.

 
20 Dreamcatcher Sport 15m Brooyar Tue 13th Jan 2015
Brilliant, technical, flowing climb

 
20 Dave Sport 12m, 9 Mt Coolum Good Thu 12th Feb 2015
Slipppppery. Cool mantle over the ledge.

 
20 Nude Tuesday Sport 20m Blue Mountains Thu 5th Mar 2015
20 Happy Pants Sport 18m, 6 Mt Tibrogargan Good Sun 20th Sep 2015
The hard move is cool.

 
19 20 The Spearhead Trad 11m Coomba Falls Very Good Mon 5th Oct 2015
Thought this was Fish. The mantle move is tricky, but I don't think it's 20 - at least not the way I did it. Maybe the arete is. I went right and finished up chimney. Bomber gear first half, no protection in second half and ground fall is possible/probable if you came off the slabby arete.

 
20 Hungry Beast Sport 15m, 7 Mt Tibrogargan Classic Tue 10th Nov 2015
What a route! Crux comes up outta nowhere and throws a spanner in the works.

 
19 Pooh Gets A Dip In The Honey Pot Sport 12m, 3 Coffs Harbour Very Good Fri 3rd Oct 2014
Balancy climb. Thought I was going to take a fall then stuck the crux just as I was thinking about wimping out.

 
19 Wedding Cake Island Sport 8m, 2 Coffs Harbour Very Good Fri 3rd Oct 2014
Really liked it. The flake hold at the top looks like it might come off at any point. Made things interesting.

20 19 Lardy Lady's Lats pitch 1 (Lady Lardy's Lats pitch 1) Sport 18m Blue Mountains Thu 5th Mar 2015
Razor crimp down low and some awesome chunky side pulls at the top. Sweeet

 
19 Whymper Sport 150m Blue Mountains Mega Classic Thu 5th Mar 2015
Just incredible. Breath taking exposure, brown pants traverses, beautiful sequences. Loved watching Will psyching up to dead point throw above a bolt facing a whip into the void.

Sport 13m, 3 Mt Ngungun Very Good Mon 11th May 2015
Awesome. Thin and technical, but the crimps that are available have a great edge. Used the arete low down.

For me, deserves a star given the rest of the crag.

 
19 Gnarley Sport 18m, 10 Pages Pinnacle Very Good Thu 7th Jan 2016
Last climb of the day.

Awesome route on good holds. Slab was fun. No dramas until a bit of a "Where the f*** is the jug?!" at the chain.

Just steep steps really.

 
15 18 Troposphere (Troposphere p4) Sport 110m Mt Tibrogargan Very Good Wed 10th Sep 2014
Really enjoyed this. The climbing is easy but felt solid and just enjoyed the view.

 
16 18 Troposphere (Troposphere p5) Sport 110m Mt Tibrogargan Average Wed 10th Sep 2014
This was a pain. Weird traversing and had insane rope drag. Couldn't communicate with belayer. Pretty unpleasant, but not overly difficult.

 
18 Pterodactyl Sport 17m, 5 Kangaroo Point Very Good Sun 21st Sep 2014
18 Tigger's Mark Sport 12m, 2 Coffs Harbour Very Good Fri 3rd Oct 2014
Nice balancy stuff again. Found this to be very similar to the climb to the left, with a slightly easier crux move.

 
18 Swingin' Oldies Sport 8m, 3 Coffs Harbour Very Good Fri 3rd Oct 2014
Sharp crimps and bolt plates made the time spent clipping a bit uncomfortable, but enjoyed the moves.

 
18 Southern Cross Sport 20m, 4 Mt Ngungun Very Good Sun 9th Nov 2014
Nice sequence to gain ledge. Fairly sustained and nice for the grade. Game over after that.

 
18 Gravitational Equilibrium Sport 20m, 4 Mt Ngungun Very Good Fri 14th Nov 2014
Similar sequences to Worm Hole, but longer and steeper throughout. Nice climb.

 
18 The Cornflake Climb Sport 27m Brooyar Tue 13th Jan 2015
Absolutely loved this. Amazing rock, cool moves.

 
18 Graviton Sport 15m, 4 Mt Ngungun Sun 18th Jan 2015
Tricky move off the ground then it's barely harder than the 14 next to it.

 
18 White Castle Sport 18m, 4 Mt Beerwah Very Good Mon 26th Jan 2015
One of the best easy slab routes I've done in the glassies. Tricky move at the top if you're short. Nice climb.

 
17 18 Chocolate Watch Band Trad 17m Frog Buttress Very Good Tue 17th Feb 2015
Good stuff. Fairly straightforward until it's time to climb out from the mini cave. Ran out of appropriately sized cams, so threw in some upper cut style fist jams and ran it out. Nice climb.

 
18 The Bandoline Grip Sport 18m, 6 Blue Mountains Thu 5th Mar 2015
18 The Eternity Trad 22m Blue Mountains Thu 5th Mar 2015
Really epic. My best moment so far in climbing. Particular highlights were cruising through the middle jamming section, and watching a yellow wire fall out as I pulled into the top crux layback, contemplating a huge whip.

18 Disbelief Mixed trad 8m, 1 Coffs Harbour Very Good Sun 23rd Aug 2015
Great, crimpy, technical climbing. Adequate gear up high. Lu couldn't touch the moves on this so it might be 19 I think.

 
18 Dwarf Shortage Trad 12m Noosa National Park Very Good Sun 13th Sep 2015
Great moves through the bulge. First cut loose on trad. Would be brilliant if a touch more sustained and the ledge wasn't there.

 
18 Ruby Tuesday Trad 12m Noosa National Park Good Mon 14th Dec 2015
Enjoyed it, bit of a one move wonder though, and maybe a soft move for 18. It's a bit tricky to stay to the 'hard' line on some of these routes.

 
18 Afternoon Delight Sport 7m, 3 Mt Ngungun Very Good Wed 23rd Dec 2015
Another boulder problem into easy ground, but really fun.

 
18 TOS Sport 12m, 8 Pages Pinnacle Classic Thu 7th Jan 2016
First climb of the day after a sweaty walk in.

Great route, perfect warm up.

 
18 Flat Caps And Whippets Sport 12m, 4 Pages Pinnacle Classic Thu 7th Jan 2016
The pick of the bunch for me. Very interesting looking rock and classy arete climbing. Absolutely worth the few minutes it takes to walk to the end of the wall.

 
18 Not On Porpoise Sport 8m, 4 Brooyar Average Mon 25th Apr 2016
Not a fan. Slippery, wierd line. Got pumped out of my brain considering the length.

 
18 Chironex Sport 8m, 3 Brooyar Average Mon 25th Apr 2016
Pretty good. Again, pretty pumpy for the length. Worth doing.

 
18 Mars Sport 15m, 5 Mt Ngungun Mon 1st May 2017
18 Nadir Sport 10m, 3 Dwarfland Good Sat 22nd Jul 2017
Not too bad. Concur with Matt re: the bolting. Especially considering this is the 'warm up' here.

 
18 Pipe Dreams Sport 16m, 6 Montagu Very Good Wed 22nd Jun 2016
All pretty similar on the RH side. Pleasant, well protected climbing.

 
18 The Gospel Express Sport 21m, 10 Montagu Mega Classic Sat 25th Jun 2016
Fantastic. Some very nice movement, good length, follows a natural feature.

 
6a 18 Snakeskin Safari Suit Sport 15m, 10 Waterval Boven Classic Sat 2nd Jul 2016
Sweet. Funky crack moves and a mantle. Really fun and interesting climbing.

Fully protectable on gear - but I'm not complaining.

 
17 Horse Head Nebula Sport 17m, 3 Mt Ngungun Good Thu 28th Aug 2014
17 Dysentery Sport 18m, 6 Kangaroo Point Good Sun 21st Sep 2014
Warmup. Nice climb.

 
17 Winnie The Pooh Goes Honey Hunting Sport 12m Coffs Harbour Very Good Fri 3rd Oct 2014
Nice climb. Love this crag.

 
17 Pass the Bosch Sport 18m, 6 Kangaroo Point Very Good Sat 18th Oct 2014
Nice climb. Slightly tricky moves at the start but cruisey finish up to the tree. Head game coming back.

17 Zeitgeist Sport 110m Mt Tibrogargan Very Good Tue 27th Jan 2015
Climbed in 1hr 01min with Will Tanner. Simul climbed pitches 2 and 3. Pitch 1 was a little bit too spicey to risk a heinous double whipper.

Nice exposure, pretty clean rock, but never overly stoked on Tibro slab.

Good little multi. Baking hot on the belay ledge today. Second pitch is too short but it packs in some cool moves off the belay.

17 Ogling Osprey Trad 19m Noosa National Park Very Good Thu 23rd Apr 2015
More of less this. Didn't quite know where I was headed so ran further left than the original ascent.

 
17 Freewheeling Trad 26m Blue Mountains Good Mon 4th May 2015
Think it was this. Mentally taxing climb, going from jamming through an overhang, then delicate slab climbing on wires looped over old carrot bolts. Eep.

 
17 Hijinx - with Cris Sport 16m, 3 Mt Ngungun Mon 11th May 2015
Steep 17 with good holds all the way up. Seems like a bit of a rarity in the Glassies. Definitely worth a look.

 
17 Lichen The Candy Sport 18m, 6 Mt Tibrogargan Thu 18th Jun 2015
17 The Technician Mixed trad 35m, 1 Mt Maroon Classic Mon 17th Aug 2015
Fantastic route! Eyeballed it from the ground without the guide.

Funky moves through caves, stemming, jams - has it all. Good gear too. I didn't see the bolt but it felt adequately protected either way.

Ended up finishing the climb by climbing the back of the detached pillar as an offwidth/squeeze chimney to step across to a tree belay 5m to the left. No gear for last 8m but you won't fall out of that chimney anytime soon. Thanks for belay Chris!

 
17 Old Elvis Sport 18m, 5 Mt Tibrogargan Don't Bother Sun 6th Dec 2015
Guiding. Not very good. Bit tricksy.

 
17 AWOL Sport 18m, 4 Mt Ngungun Very Good Wed 23rd Dec 2015
Loved the undercling. Nice route. Seems like the cut loose is a common occurrence. Awesome.

 
17 Charger Sport 10m, 3 Mt Ngungun Good Wed 23rd Dec 2015
Always feel heady on this wall, and confused about what I'm on. Think I was on this. Easy to escape the harder climbing at the top.

 
17 Widow Of Opportunity Sport 25m, 10 Victoria Range Mega Classic Wed 4th Feb 2015
Back log. Best 17 sport route I've ever done.

16 The Enchanted Place Sport 12m, 3 Coffs Harbour Good Fri 3rd Oct 2014
You want to make sure you're super solid when clipping the second bolt. Big time ground fall potential. (Or be sensible, and put in a bit of protection)

 
15 16 R Insomnia Mixed trad 18m, 4 Kangaroo Point Average Sun 5th Oct 2014
Scary runout on lead. Top out was sick.
