20 Changes Sport 20m Good
Pull kinda hard on little holds. Not as good as Low. Maybe an alzheimer's, not really sure.

 
22 Low Sport 20m Very Good
Really cool rock, really fun moves. Maybe an alzheimer's, but I don't remember.

Blackheath Area Shipley Upper Grand Junction Wall
23 Weak as I am Sport 22m, 13 Classic
Oh my, crazy anxiety, maybe because the kids were almost losing it at the end of the day. But, climbed it much better than last time, and none of it felt too hard.

20 Sleepwalking - with Astrid Mixed trad 33m, 9 Classic
Brilliant climbing in a spectacular location. The orange upper section of the wall is superb. Rather pumpy also.

Rescuing some gear that was left behind after the incident with the tree.

 
Sun 29th Jan 2023 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Centennial Glen Hip Shake Jerk Area
23 Back Hand Tosser Sport 12m Good
Clipped the first bolt from the tree, then followed the arete while reaching across to clip the bolts. Was actually quite fun, and looked stupid contrived and ugly to not use the arete.

 
Fri 27th Jan 2023 - Blue Mountains
Mount Victoria Area Bardens Lookout Adults Only Cave
24 Easy A Most Profligate Sinner — 3 attempts Sport 18m Very Good
Cool climb! Specific hand beta got me through the crux since I'm weak. And my beta wouldn't work if you're shorter.

21 ~20 Influenza — 2 attempts Sport 28m, 12 Classic
Sweet sweet bridging. Felt easier than Princess... If you asked me I'd swap the grades. But then, I love corners.

 
19 Hard Princess Sport 25m, 12 Very Good
Plenty of fun, stiff for a warm-up for me at the moment.

 
Sun 19th Jun 2022 - Orroral area
Booroomba Rocks South Buttress Integral face
20 Integral Crack - with Kirsty Trad 48m Mega Classic
oooof. Such a good climb, that just keeps going and going and going. I could really feel my lack of endurance, and got a little desperate in a couple of spots, but managed to hang in there and keep going.

Such good placements (5 cams and 10 wires), such good rock, such good movements.

Was made rather more epic by bringing the kids in. And there was still some small patches of snow on the track up to the top. Glorious sunny weather.

 
Sat 12th Feb 2022 - Gibraltar and Corin Road
Snake Rock The Buttresss
22 Red Belly Mixed trad 12m, 2
So much fun, until it gets thin up top and I forgot how to use my feet, or small holds, or just climb in general.

 
Sun 30th Jan 2022 - New Nowra - Braidwood Road
Tianjara Falls Huskinson Homo (Ricky) and the (Graeme) Hill Top hoods gully
22 Dave Fern Sport 25m Very Good
Much easier than Dodecahedron, but very worthwhile too. Pleasant climbing and a lovely ramble w/ view to the top.

 
Sun 30th Jan 2022 - New Nowra - Braidwood Road
Tianjara Falls Indian Head (north) Impressionist Wall
18 Working Woes of a Worried Wombat Sport 28m Very Good
Straightforward climbing up the black rock, then brilliant up the orange rock at the top. Maybe hard for 18, or maybe it was just the mega humidity today.

 
Sat 19th Jun 2021 - Mt Coree area
Lost Vegas Main walls
21 Shadow Trick - with Joni Sport 18m Average
A bit wet. Cool moves through bulge, then ugly chose to the chains.

Blackheath Area Big Top
22 I've Got 3 Buttocks Sport 30m Very Good
Faffed around getting the third bolt on, but should have just been brave and climbed past, it's not that hard, and muuuuch nicer. Decently spaced and pumpy up higher. Quite cool and was proud to get the onsight, had to work for it.

 
Thu 8th Apr 2021 - Blue Mountains

1 18 45m lead by Damien Ayers
Mixed trad 45m, 9 Very Good
Pitch 1 only. Soloed up to the tree, then led the lovely crack and short slab above. Brilliant weather, sunny and windy and cool, and super fun placing some good gear.

 
Sun 17th Mar 2019 - Arapiles
The Pharos and Surrounds Pharos Gully Cheops Buttress
19 Cheops - with Anthony Cuskelly Trad 20m Classic
Awesome climb, awesome gear, fun descent. Should be a classic. Started up the arrete to the left.

 
19 Fly By Night - with Anthony Cuskelly Trad 20m Average
Awkward, and I didn't like the gear. Not a great warm up. Just climb Cheops instead.

 
Sun 17th Mar 2019 - Arapiles
The Pharos and Surrounds Pharos Gully Spellbinder Area
17 Spellbinder - with Anthony Cuskelly Trad 27m Very Good
Great climb, but I didn't feel good. You can use big gear (#4 BD), but don't need it. would be safe with a couple of #1 and #2s. Also, very ashamed that we'd left the hexes in the car.

 
Sun 17th Mar 2019 - Arapiles
The Pharos and Surrounds Pharos Gully Ethereal Buttress
21 Running on Empty - with Anthony Cuskelly Trad 20m Classic

Central Gully Upper Central Gully Cecilia Wall
22 Cecilia - with Anthony Cuskelly Mixed trad 25m, 4 Very Good
Stick clipped the fixed hanger, I assume that's what it's there for... Really enjoyable climbing. Climbed from down below the 'jump' jug. Trusted the manky bolts, but there's good gear, so probably should have placed some.

 
Sat 16th Mar 2019 - Arapiles

19 Bootleg - with Anthony Cuskelly Trad 20m Very Good

Fun climbing. I clipped the last drawer then went slightly right, felt a bit like bailing out on the crux, but so close and significantly easier...
