Thu 24th Mar 2011 - Blue Mountains
Mount Victoria Area Zap Crag Lower Zap
17 Just Warmin' Up (Just Warming Up) Sport 20m Average
Unnecessarily large run out beyond RB4 - especially considering how brittle the rock is through this section.

The Horn Area The Horn

This is 12?? Clearly Buffalo and I dont understand each other yet...

 
Wed 26th Jan 2011 - Mount Buffalo
The Hump Area Ariel Buttress
14 Spank The Cat Trad 18m Average
A bit of chimneying and a hand traverse. Trad anchor in moss. Not worth the walk down, though - rap rings, anyone?

 
Wed 26th Jan 2011 - Mount Buffalo
Le Souef Plateau The Castle
13 Tears Begin To Fall Trad 12m Good
First outing on Buffalo crack - coarse!

 
Sun 23rd Jan 2011 - Blue Mountains
Katoomba Area Narrow Neck Rhum Dhu
19 Dirty Rotten Pig Sport 130m Crap
Not really worth the long approach to climb this crappy rock.

 
Mon 17th Jan 2011 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd The Dam Cliffs Creek Boulder
19 Enviro Vandal Sport 12m, 6 Good
Awkward off-balance start to get over the creek, then easy smearing on the diagonal corrugations.

Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd The Dam Cliffs Mossy Wall

A bit mossy in places, otherwise some fun moves on shallow ledges

Thin start then you're away

A very easy 19

 
Sun 16th Jan 2011 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Mt Boyce Shock Wall/Fire Bug Mall

Wed 29th Dec 2010 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd The Dam Cliffs Wet Feet Area
17 Wet Feet Sport 14m Classic
The traverse on thin feet across 3 bolts 1m above the creek is great - especially knowing that there's the added punishment of an unexpected dip if you blow it.

Leura Sublime Point West Face (Main Area) Middle Cliffs Choc Chip Chai Sector
19 20 Choc Chip Chai Sport 15m, 7 Very Good

Slopey hands but good toe pockets.

 
Wed 24th Nov 2010 - Blue Mountains
Mount Victoria Area Mount Piddington Slape Area
16 The Spartan Mixed trad 50m, 4 Good
Zero exposure - quite disappointing. It's the scrunched up nature of the traverse that provides the difficulty. One of those climbs that looks more impressive from the ground, unfortunately.

Chunky hand traverse below, across and over the bulge.
