The Grotto Cliffline The Grotto Proper | ||||||
19 | ★★ Alien Space Monsters | 25m, 9 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Interesting position on the arete. There are a couple of no fall zones on this.
|
||||||
17 | ★★ L'Arch | 16m, 5 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Interesting movement and features
|

Mount Coree Wind Wall | ||||||
19 | ★★★ Jerusalem | 25m, 8 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
One of the best 19's I have ever climbed. Perfect movement the whole way with a bit of spice at times.

Tianjara Falls Indian Head (north) Impressionist Wall | ||||||
18 Hard | ★★ Working Woes of a Worried Wombat | 28m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Tricky climb, the top corner is amazing rock and hard to read. Really had to think about the movement whilst climbing.

18 | ★★ Mustard | 30m, 11 | ★★ Very Good | |||

What a climb! Diverse movement and great features
|
||||||
17 ~19 | ★★ Occasional Dream | 30m, 9 | ||||
This gets 19 in the guide, I agree. This again is strangely bolted. Starts just right of gilead on an awkward corner feature. Hot in the sun.
|
||||||
18 | ★★ Gilead | 30m, 10 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Great climbing. Far left climb. Strange bolting in this area, hard to follow where the lines go because the bolts dont always follow the obvious climbing. This was probably the best climb on this wall.

20 | ★ Chilled Left Eyeball | 10m | ★ Good | |||
Pumpy as a warm up, the sequence isn’t obvious.

Sat 19th Mar 2022 - Mt Coree area | ||||||
Lost Vegas Main walls | ||||||
23 | ★★★ Spliff Odyssey | 32m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Some hard to read sections. No chalk which made it an interesting onsight.
|
||||||
19 | ★★★ Cupola | 25m, 12 | ★★★ Classic | |||
One of the more interesting 19's I have ever climbed. Scary and adventurous,
|
||||||
21 | ★★ Loosen Up Children | 25m, 10 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Some great moves on this!
|

Thu 30th Dec 2021 - Blue Mountains | ||||||
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd Cosmic County Area The Freezer | ||||||
24 | ★★ Unity (Rat$ Direct) | 25m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Made the start way harder than it needed to be by going left and missing some obvious holds. Almost botched the start. The top corner feature is great to climb and quite technical.
|
||||||
19 | ★ Absolute Zero | 23m, 5 | Average | |||
Some suspect rock on this one and one runout that seems out of character to the rest of the climb
|

Nice warm up.
|
||||||
24 | ★★ Snappy Dresser | 15m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Happy to onsight this, first day back in the mountains in 6 years! Had to commit to the mono clip and then keep the pump in check for the rest of the route.
|

23 | ★★ Bombs Away Pretzel Boy | 6m, 4 | ★ Good | |||

Tianjara Falls The Corner Store | ||||||
21 | Yak My Nuggets | 22m, 10 | Don't Bother | |||
Dangerous with ledge fall potential most of the climb. Wouldn't bother.
|
||||||
23 | ★★★ Boulet Frit Left Hand Start | 22m, 10 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Decided to do the left hand start considering the direct has had a hold break recently, glad I made this choice. Draws on onsight. Classic face climbing with no rest until near the top, and then still some hard moves after that. Happy to squeak in the onsight.

Tianjara Falls Chunders Glenn - Lower Wall | ||||||
17 | ★ Roger the Rhino | 22m | ★ Good | |||
Should probably just share the final bolt of the route to its right rather than having a bolt half a meter away. Ok climbing.
|
||||||
18 | ★★ Roger the Hippo | 22m | ★★ Very Good | |||
19 | ★★ Maurice the Fart Freak | 25m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Classic long route, interesting the whole way.

Octopuses Garden | ||||||
20 | ★ I am the Walrus | 12m, 6 | ★ Good | |||
Tricky at the top. Bummer the quality of rock isnt so crash hot near the anchor, spoils an otherwise great route.
|
||||||
22 | ★ Yellow Submarine | 15m, 7 | Average | |||
The start two bolts is some of the worst climbing I have ever done. Redeemed slightly by the cool stemming crux. The top is just a test in rock quality reading.
|
||||||
Mon 2nd Mar 2020 - Mt Tibrogargan | ||||||
South Face | ||||||
17 | ★★ Traxion Action - with Carrie Doyle | 210m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Lovely to get out on the mountain on a beautiful day. Haven’t done a multi in years. This one is nice! First pitch has a couple of awkward moves but altogether is very fun. The final pitch (8) is actually pretty fun although short and you need to sling a big boulder to belay your second up.
We started at 7:30am and didn’t hit the sun until the final pitch. |

Fun! Good addition to the wall.
|
||||||
23 22 | ★★ Waterline | 10m, 4 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Tricky to onsight; the rock is hard to read and holds are hidden. Great route!
|
||||||
Thu 17th May 2018 - Pages Pinnacle | ||||||
21 | ★ TOS Extension | 19m, 13 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Climbed TOS and decided to continue up this. I liked it! Technical.
|
||||||
23 | Yule Tide | 18m, 9 | Average | |||
Top is great as everyone has said. Bottom two bolts are good fun too! Be mindful on the runout after the third.

24 | ★★★ Freak On | 12 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
A fight! Happy to pull through and get the Onsight.
My thoughts on the grades. I think they align almost exactly with Australian grades, at least up to grade 24. After that there is an evident difference in the grades. This would be 24 in Australia any day of the week.

18 | ★ Nadir | 10m, 3 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Climbs way better than it looks. Could do with a shuffle of bolts, and an addition of another. Not really an 18 for a beginner. Take care.
|

Sun 16th Apr 2017 - Mt Ngungun | ||||||

18 | ★ Southern Cross | 20m, 4 | Average | |||

The Secret Cave | ||||||
23 | ★★ Finger Tips and Mountain Tops | 25m, 11 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Nice left trending line. Way longer than I thought it would be. Getting to anchor was a little confusing, I did a low traverse into the corner to get to it.
|
||||||
22 | ★ Never Ask the Moon | 25m, 8 | ★ Good | |||
A little too sharp and not continuous enough to be anything too good. Still fun though!
