Grade Route Gear style Quality
Sun 20th Jul 2014 - Galston Gorge
The North Cliff
CLOSED Project - Chris & Adrian (Project 7) Sport 11m, 6 Good
Needs a good brush to become climbable. Crux move is about grade 20, but well protected.

 
17 I Hate Pikeys Sport 10m, 3 Good
Some thin moves and a surprising finish.

 
18 Ghost Of Galston Sport 15m, 6 Very Good
Brilliant moves the whole way up, with a couple of committing sections. Clips are easier if you're tall.

 
Sat 19th Jul 2014 - Crosslands
19 16 Nasty Sport 6m, 2 Very Good
The holds are still breaking, making the crimps even thinner. Great technical climbing. Probably a grade 19.

 
10 Less than Nasty Sport 12m, 4 Average
Might be easy, but the crux had me thinking!

 
19 Exterior Expectations Sport 15m Good
Not 100% sure I was climbing this route. There were 3RB to DRBB. 1st bolt really high off the ground, so cams were needed for the start. Some good moves on this route, but it really needs a good brush down.

 
16 A Little Problematic Sport 8m, 3 Average
Some of the holds were a bit sandy. But the views are nice!

 
Fri 13th Dec 2013 - Blue Mountains
Medlow Bath The Underworld
19 The Untouchables Sport 12m Very Good
Funky moves up brilliant holds. This rock was made for climbing!

 
Fri 13th Dec 2013 - Blue Mountains
Medlow Bath Reservoir Dogs
18 Let's Get a Taco Sport 36m, 12 Very Good
Pitch 2 has an awkward shuffle to 1st bolt. After topping the overhang, it's like climbing a staircase.

 
15 I Don't Tip Sport 36m, 13 Classic
Both pitches are very cruisy. Pitch 1 feels easier than a 15. Pitch 2 has brilliant holds. The extra time spent placing bolt plates means extra time enjoying the great scenery.

 
Mon 9th Dec 2013 - The Stables
The Stables
19 Chronic Sport 10m Good
14 Clipz Sport 10m Average
14 Yoink Sport 10m Classic
Fun moves up awesome jugs, with an awkward mantle. Good route to warm up, or for beginners.

 
18 Bunsen Honeydew Sport 10m Good
Bump up the crimpers or dyno between the jugs.

 
18 Dissociative Fugue Sport 10m Good
19 Mufasta Sport 10m Very Good
15 The Player of Games Sport 9m Good
Gets a bit crimpy at the top. Good warm up.

 
20 Bluntman Sport 8m Very Good
Balancy move is much easier after you've stuck it once. Bit sketchy clipping in the 2nd last draw.

 
Sun 7th Jul 2013 - Du Faur walls
Suffragette wall
18 Faur Out Sport 10m, 5 Good
16 Freda Mind Sport 10m, 4 Good
Fun, and good for beginners.

 
Sun 7th Jul 2013 - Du Faur walls
Mini wall
17 Ramp to Success direct Sport 7m, 2 Average
First move is the hardest.

 
12 Ramp to Success Sport 7m, 2 Average
10 Is That a Leech In your Pocket Or You Just Happy to See Me Sport 7m, 2 Average
