1042 points	19	★★ Judas-Messiah Connection	Trad 35m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 26th Dec 2011
Not to hard or pumpy, but I found it quite scary. Stiched the poor climb to pieces with about 12 bits of gear. Definately worth a shot if you want to try one of the Blueys few good finger cracks.
1030 points	21	★★★ Conquistador	Trad 45m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Mega Classic	Tue 9th Aug 2011
9th August 2011. 2nd shot on lead (and one clean top-rope attempt at night). One of my all-time greatest trad leads. Such variety, unrelenting length, and no particularly crux moves. Bomb-proof gear and heady climbing. A year later I still remember how this felt to lead.
1003 points	19	★★★ Infinity	Trad 40m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Classic	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011.
1003 points	22	★★★ Child in Time	Trad 25m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011. Brilliant. Had no troubles with the bouldery start, but fell once and rested once on the same move in the middle of the climb.
1003 points	22	★★★ Yankee Go Home	Trad 26m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Classic	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011. Excellent sustained fingercrack. Fell twice in the middle (crux) fingercrack section.
952 points	19	★★ Black Bart	Mixed trad 25m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 3rd Mar 2011
03 March 2011. Onsight in the rain. Quite a few challenging moves, guarded by a tough start. Bring some cams to protect the moves to get established on the arete.

850 points	20	★★★ Haystack Madness	Trad 25m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 25th Jun 2011
25th June 2011. Took an epic fall (blew a cam from the choss in the wide-section) on my onsight attempt. Came down rattled, but gave it a second shot for the tick. Brilliant! Bring at least 3 #1s and 3 #2s minimum.

704 points	20	★ Big Trad Thong	Trad 200m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Tue 25th Jan 2011
25 Jan 2011. With JengA. Led pitches 2, 4 and 6. Seconded 1, 3 and 5. Two rests on the (crux) roof traverse, with temperatures in the mid 40's sucking my energy. Quite chossy, but a few good moves, and the 1st, 4th and 5th pitch are quite good.
666 points	17	★★★ Smoked Banana	Trad 40m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Classic	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011. Wow. Just wow. Has everything.

Another lap on this classic. Always a pleasure. Yours for eternity.
540 points	16 19	★ The Swiss Route (The Swiss Route Direct)	Trad 88m	Blue Mountains	Average	Wed 21st Dec 2011
Scary in the wet. Not too pleasant, and weird anchors.
533 points	19 18	★★★ Plume	Trad 25m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011. Fell in the first laybacking section on Onsight, while trying to fingerlock my way through it. Came down to the ground, and got it clean second shot.
503 points	17 16	★★ Micron	Trad 20m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Thu 18th Aug 2011

487 points	16	★★ The Friendly Jackal	Trad 20m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 26th Jun 2011
26th June 2011. Good value. Climbed it while the crack was seeping huge volumes of slime and water.
472 points	16	★★ Man Overboard	Trad 26m	Point Perpendicular	★★ Very Good	Sun 8th May 2011

469 points	18	★★ Marsupial Smearer	Mixed trad 20m, 2	Barrenjoey	★★ Very Good	Thu 20th Jan 2011

463 points	16	★ Orange Slice	Trad 75m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 9th Apr 2011
09 Apr 2011. Onsight all 3 pitches. Some dubious pro and rock, but amazing position. The most dangerous thing about this climb is getting to the start of it... and the tourists. The closest you can legally climb to the 3 Sisters!.
439 points	16	★ Professor Wigginsworth's Chunder Bucket	Mixed trad 20m, 3	Barrenjoey	★★ Very Good	Thu 20th Jan 2011
20th January 2011.
436 points	16	★ Young Dudes	Trad 20m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 8th Jan 2011
8th Jan 2011. How has that paper-thin flake not broken?
436 points	16	★ Hang Five	Mixed trad 12m, 1	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 8th Jan 2011
08 Jan 2011. Probably one of the better Glenbrook Gorge routes, if it weren't for the horrible Shalebank topout. Makes a great direct start to Annelid Crack.
405 points	17	★★★ Psychopath	Trad 28m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 26th Dec 2011
Another lap up this classic. First lap a year ago was an onsight.
333 points	15	★★ Devil's Wart	Trad 27m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011.
269 points	15	★★ Crack of Dawn	Trad 20m	Barrenjoey	★ Good	Thu 20th Jan 2011
20th January 2011.
227 points	17	★★★ Fire Bug	Trad 63m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 9th Apr 2011
9th April 2011. Led entire climb as 3 pitches. Climbed this with a pack, and got LITERALLY stuck in the chimney on the first pitch. Had to place and pull on a cam in order to free myself... Hence the dog. Otherwise: all clean. Absolutely brilliant 3rd pitch.
216 points	20	★★ Erg	Trad 25m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Classic	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011. Struggled on the fist-crack section. Got it clean on second later the same afternoon.
201 points	17	★★ The Crack	Trad 15m	Hospital Flat	★★ Very Good	Sun 11th Dec 2011
Would that I had the gear with me to lead it, but a crack this prominent couldn't be passed up, so a top-rope it is. The hardest moves are before the crack really starts, but the climbing is fun, so who cares! The overhanging 18 crack on the other side of Tombstone is better though! - No chalk and someone elses climbing boots.
199 points	15	★★★ Tombstone Wall	Mixed trad 30m, 3	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 20th Feb 2011

53 points	19	★★ Sorcerer's Apprentice	Trad 30m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011. Climbed clean on second twice, but on my one attempt to lead it I fell on the early fingercrack section (just after the loose blocks). Clean to top from there.
22 points	19	★★ Handsome Ox	Trad 18m	Point Perpendicular	★★ Very Good	Mon 9th May 2011
09 May 2011.
22 points	19	★★★ Icebird	Trad 30m	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	Sun 8th May 2011
08 May 2011. Brilliant climbing, pumped out 5m from the top and took an absolutely epic fall onto the bombproof gear below.
22 points	19	★ Jaws	Trad 32m	Point Perpendicular	★ Good	Sun 8th May 2011
08 May 2011. Bleh. Bad technique made the fist crack section amazingly tough for me. Was a good wake-up call to learn how to fist-jam properly.
3 points	16	★★ Drop-out Direct Finish	Trad 7m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011.
0 points	13	★★★ Dihedral Corner	Trad 32m	Blue Lake	★ Good	Wed 18th May 2011
May 2011. In alpine conditions with the rock covered in sheet ice, and snow on all the holds. Bloody terrifying under the circumstances.
0 points	12	★★ The Eyrie	Mixed trad 45m, 3	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 24th Dec 2011
A bit of fun, and one of the better routes for the grade. Managed to get my 56 year old father up this one, and it's been a long time since HE climbed.
0 points	15	★★ The Carthaginian	Trad 33m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Mon 26th Dec 2011
Another lap on this classic (there are just so many at Piddo). Original lap 1.5 years ago was an onsight. Great climbing for the grade.
0 points	18	★★ Montezuma	Trad 30m	Point Perpendicular	★★ Very Good	Mon 4th Jul 2011
04 July 2011.Finally fell 3m from the top, having run out of big gear a long way below, and climbed pretty much entirely on dodgy hexes to this point.
0 points	21	★★★ Juggernaut	Trad 30m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011. Gave it everything, but just couldn't get up the final 1/3rd of this climb.
0 points	15	★ Bedroom Wall	Trad 9m	Point Perpendicular	Average	Sat 7th May 2011
07 May 2011. Want to give yourself a heart attack? Make your second ever climb at The Point a free solo.
0 points	14	★★ Darkside	Mixed trad 110m, 10	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Fri 30th Sep 2011
Sometime late 2011. Great first pitch (led by No-Chalk Rob). Every pitch after that manages to be worse than the pitch preceding it.
0 points	10	★ Sweet Irish	Trad 49m	Blue Mountains	Average	Sat 24th Dec 2011
Much more fun to do it as one giant pitch, made scarier by climbing it with only 6 bits of pro for the whole climb (including the 2 carrots I bothered to clip). Good climbing, on slightly average rock. Great position.
0 points	14	Alone in a Sea of Bolts	Trad 12m	Blue Mountains	Average	Sun 13th Nov 2011
The guide is right: it's not worth bringing a rack for. But it was a laugh.
0 points	12	★ Constipation Chimney Variant Start	Trad 19m	Blue Mountains	Average	Wed 21st Dec 2011
Unremarkable, but not bad.
0 points	11	★★ Second Thoughts	Trad 25m	Blue Mountains	Average	Sat 5th Nov 2011
Laybacked the easy crack to get to the upper section, rather than using the face holds (or the fixed rope). Free solo?
0 points	11	★★ Annelid (Kippax) Crack	Mixed trad 40m, 1	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 8th Jan 2011
08 Jan 2011. With Aaron. Absolutely layback classic.Has one manky Carrot Bolt on it, to protect the rest of the pitch you need BD #6 or Big Bros.
0 points	16	★★★ Satans Smokestack	Trad 40m	Frog Buttress		Thu 18th Aug 2011
August 2011. No one who has climbed with me has ever heard my throw a tantrum quite so noisily as I did on this climb. Supposedly its a great climb... If you can actually get past the off-width and into the chimney.
0 points	8	★ Faith	Trad 52m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Mon 26th Dec 2011
I was bored waiting for the others to rope up, and it seemed like a good idea at the time.
