16 | ★ Celeste | 25m | Arapiles | ★★ Very Good | Sun 20th Nov 2005 | |||
Lovely steep corner with great gear and climbing. Shame about the easy start and top. Ring bolts 5 m above the top of the corner.

16 | ★★★ Deep Space - Sickle | 90m | Orroral area | ★★★ Classic | Thu 29th Dec 2005 | |||
33 degrees in shade. Marta led P1. Me P2&3. P2 serious but not technical. Repositioned belay for P3 to below Icy Universe. Guide book wrong. Look for thin diagonal down and right from the base of the Sickle hand crack.

A couple of good moves then resist the urge to vomit

16 | ★ Jason | 30m | Arapiles | ★★ Very Good | Wed 23rd Mar 2005 | |||
Really nice moves. Not too slimy. Positive edges to smear against. Cool move coming out of the corner. Gear right there. Pity the top half was so straight forward.
|
||||||||
16 | ★★ Saracen | 110m | Arapiles | ★★★ Classic | Tue 22nd Nov 2005 | |||
Manky 2nd half to first pitch - rest is stellar. Great position. If confident could do in 2 55m pitches...
|

16 | ★★ Yo Yo | 90m | Arapiles | ★★★ Classic | Mon 5th Sep 2005 | |||
P2/3. Great moves.

Me P1&3. Marta P2&4. Everything everyone else says! An absolute ripper with techy moves in places.

Good fun.

16 16 R | ★★★ Brolga | 90m | Arapiles | ★★★ Mega Classic | Thu 24th Mar 2005 | |||
Me P1&2. Marta P3. No where near as run out as I thought it would be (cf granite). Most committing bit is moving off on the second pitch. Two balancy moves - made harder by a thousand feet, rest is beautiful pleasant slab climbing. Get on it!

16 | ★★★ The Pintle Left Hand Variant | 70m, 1 | Mount Buffalo | ★★★ Classic | Sun 5th Nov 2006 | |||
Great climbing. Pulled our rap rope over to get off the top of boulder of P2.

16 | ★★ Van | 44m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Classic | Sun 31st Oct 2004 | |||
Excellent well protected and comfortable face/crack climbing.

16 | ★ Give Yourself a Kiss | 10m | Point Perpendicular | ★ Good | Sat 9th Oct 2004 | |||
Classic corner. Stemming, face climbing, jamming, laybacking - all in 10 m!!
|
||||||||
16 | ★★ Rohanda | 40m | Point Perpendicular | ★★★ Classic | Sun 14th Aug 2005 | |||
Excellent traverse. Fun belay spot and good climbing above.
|
||||||||
16 | Burning Deck | 9m | Point Perpendicular | Average | Sun 6th Mar 2005 | |||
Gear is bad above horizontal traverse. Even the traverse break is full of sand! Certainly gave me the true point perp experience, but falling in the pumpy top section certainly not recommended.

16 | ★★★ Hermes | 50m | Orroral area | ★★★ Classic | Sun 21st Nov 2004 | |||
Awesome. Under the roof was all wet. hands were drenched and so were smearing feet. Not confidence inspiring - my scariest lead to date. Needed a larger cam than #3.5 so ran it out through technical laybacking section. Scary. Take a #4.5 cam minimum... Plus two big hexes (#10ish) for the corner beneath the roof. Watched by 20 squawking kids at lookout. Didn't want to scar them for life so decided not to fall. Will be back to this one!! Hats off to 1960s climbers...

16 | ★★ Nail Biter | 10m | Gibraltar and Corin Road | ★★★ Classic | Sat 4th Sep 2004 | |||
Not so much for the climb (layback the whole way) but for the position it gains!!

16 | ★★ Rose Ramble | 22m | Freycinet National Park | ★★ Very Good | Wed 1st Dec 2004 | |||
Nice to half height then I tended left with run out up slabby groove. Didn't care for 3 m layback.

The start scared the shit out of me! Sustained to start. Rock was slimy - salt?

Really nice long pitch with a thought provoking crux
