	23 24	★★ Unity (Rat$ Direct) - with Paul	Sport 25m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 26th Oct 2014
Was pretty tired but i cruised this. Not even a little bit pumped, pretty easy.
	23	★ Dinosaur - with Annette	Sport 15m, 5	Kangaroo Point	★ Good	Tue 16th Apr 2013
Nice crux moves, love the heel and mantle. Pity the rest of the route was so easy.
	23	★★★ Diagonal du Fou - with Vanessa	Sport 15m, 10	Mount Alexandra	★★★ Mega Classic	Sun 7th Aug 2016
Yeah, it certainly lives up to the hype...so bloody good! Also felt fairly solid for me. The slab is hard, the top was cruisy and insanely fun!
	23	★★ Yellow Fever - with Vanessa, Vanessa and Fang	Sport 17m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 26th Aug 2017
Really liked this route. Fought hard for the onsight, as there was zero chalk and i couldn't see the crux holds until i was pulling on them...
	23	0055 Hot Wet Action - with lloyd wishart	Sport 15m, 6	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Fri 29th Mar 2019
Another route worth doing. Thanks Monty, for the new bolts.
	23	★★ Geek Heathen - with Vanessa	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 9th Dec 2018
Misread it a little but managed to fight back and get the OS. Quite fun and will be even better knowing where to go next time.
	23	★★ Rudolf the Bloody Reindeer - with lloyd wishart, yun	Sport 15m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 14th Apr 2018
Felt pretty easy, but good fun!
	23	★★ Creep Show - with Vanessa	Sport 18m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 31st Dec 2015
Almost came unstuck due to a red herring sloper-nothing covered in chalk but all good. Great route!
	23	★★ Elastic Analysis - with Axel	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 8th Nov 2018
Warm up. Good fun, not too hard at the grade.
	23	★ High Kick'n Chicks (High kickin chicks)	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 13th Apr 2014
Great fun, couple of tricky parts but i managed past them for my second onsight today
	23	★★ Psychotic - with Yulid Shorrock	Sport 16m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 3rd Mar 2021
Felt pretty cruisy at the grade, though i got pumped because i was shaken from the previous route.
	23	★ Ice Cubed - with Vanessa	Sport 25m	Blue Mountains	Average	Sun 31st Jan 2016
Yep, it is choss...
	23	★★★ Bondage and Discipline - with Vanessa	Sport 23m	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Sat 23rd Jul 2016
This wall didn't look very good but of the 2 routes i did, the climbing was great! Nice crimpy fun, right up my alley!
	23	★ Acceptably Cosmic - with Vanessa	Sport 10m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 4th Oct 2014
Capped off a great day with this onsight. Fun little route
	23	★★ Mental Mantle - with Vanessa	Sport 27m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 22nd May 2016
Couldn't believe i hadn't done this before, its rad! Kept getting distracted by my 2 barking dogs down the bottom but i just fought off the pump and got the OS. Cut the day short after this though, as my bloody dogs wouldn't shut up
	23	★★ Sexy Mexi	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Wed 18th Jun 2014
Did some pretty scary moves while traversing on this one, happy to onsight. Good fun
	23	★ Watergate - with Vanessa	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 30th Jul 2016
Read the crux from the ground, got it right and then its all jugs to the top. Much like the other routes, over too soon.
	23	★ Scheme of Things - with Chris	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Thu 1st Jan 2015
Pretty hard through the crux! Fun though
	23	★★ Dictator in a Deerstalker - with Vanessa	Sport 9m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 19th Oct 2014
Yeah, this was really cool for such a little route. Really goey, fun!
	23	★★★ Subliminal - with Paul Frothy Thomson	Sport 92m, 33	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Fri 4th Jan 2019
Pretty happy to get the onsight in horrible, hot conditions. There was a storm moving overhead and the humidity and lack of wind were disgusting! Great climb, will gladly do it again. Climbed from the belay for Sojourn/Sabbatical/Castaway, as i had planned to try one of the harder routes but it was far too hot and sweaty and instead of doing the silly long traverse pitch.
	23	★★ Reigning Steel	Sport 17m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 25th May 2014
I really liked this little route. Nice warm up route for this wall and a spicy little finish if you fluff around at the last bolt like i did
	23	★★ An Angel Walks By	Sport 23m, 13	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 4th May 2014
Great fun warm up. Fought the cold and the pump to get there
	23	★ Harness Ahh-ness - with Matt Springall	Sport 15m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Mon 2nd Apr 2018
Had some cool moves. Pretty cruisy.
	23	★★ Flirting With the Spanish Dancer - with Matt Springall	Sport 20m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 3rd Mar 2018
Not as good or as hard as the route to the left but still really fun.
	23	★★ Split Wave	Sport 20m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Fri 14th Feb 2014
Great fun. Happy to flash it!
	23	★ Better than Chocolate - with Vanessa and Chris	Sport 12m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 6th Dec 2014
This actually climbed quite well. Pretty thuggy down low and a bit of a hard pull at the end. Fun
	23	★★ Nev Herrod	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 15th Feb 2014
Little bit of beta from tomic a few days before and flashed placing the draws. Great fun!
	23	★★★ Hot Flyer	Sport 25m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 18th Jun 2014
Climbed after Max's onsight, fun stuff!
	23	★★ Master Plan	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 28th Sep 2014
Was so tired but gave it go. Figured i'd just keep moving, once the holds got smaller and it paid off. Fun but not great. Steeper than it looked at first.
	23	★ Avenue Jean Jaures - with Ben Jenga	Sport 35m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 15th Feb 2015
This was a mission! I was only halfway and i thought it should be over, haha! Good fun but scary in parts (ledges) and some choss down low.
	23	★ Bronze Bell - with Matt Springall	Sport 18m, 9	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 6th Aug 2016
Better than i expected after the traverse at the start.
	23	★★ The Unknown - with Matt Brooks	Sport 22m, 7	The Rock	★★ Very Good	Sat 1st Jul 2017
Got all the beta from Matt and managed the flash, but i was pretty buggered! Great fun!
	23	★★★ Saw-Toothed Snake - with Lucas C, Paul Frothy Thomson	Sport 28m, 13	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 18th Nov 2018
One of the best 23s i have done! Good warm up too.
	23	★★★ Marxism (Marxism P1) - with Vanessa 1 23 25m lead by Rob Medlicott	Sport 25m, 22	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 9th Sep 2018
	23	★★ Cucumber Castle	Sport 18m, 4	Kangaroo Point	★★ Very Good	Wed 11th Sep 2013
Second shot at this route. Didn't remember any of it but I had plenty of endurance to figure it out. Nice climb
	23	★ Bouncy Castle	Sport 18m, 4	Kangaroo Point	★ Good	Wed 27th Nov 2013
	23	★★ The Never Believers - with Chris	Sport 15m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Wed 29th Oct 2014
Warm up. Good to clean up this old dog. Great, steep little route.
	23	★★ M.A.R.K. #1 - with Vanessa	Sport 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 17th Dec 2016
Repeat, felt a lot easier than i remembered, which is good
	23	★★★ Lyptus - with Chris	Sport 23m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Tue 13th Nov 2018
Warm up
	23	★★ Cryogenics - with Aristotle, Vanessa	Sport 25m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 10th Feb 2019
	23	★★★ Hypoxic - with Vanessa	Sport 25m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 19th Nov 2016
Repeat so good! Felt easy today. Shows how weak i was last time...
	23	★★★ Squealer	Sport 21m, 6	Mt Tibrogargan	★★★ Classic	Sun 16th Mar 2014
Warm up
	23	★★★ You Crazy Diamond - with Vanessa	Sport 26m, 9	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Sun 31st Dec 2017
Warm up.
	23	★ Off the Lip	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Thu 24th Apr 2014
Easy today
	23	★ Hairy Horrace - with Vanessa	Sport 12m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 17th Apr 2016
Couple of warm up laps.
	23	★★ A Streaker Named Desire - with Vanessa	Sport 25m, 13	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 3rd Jul 2016
Repeat lap to put draws on for Vanessa
	23	★★ Vascularity	Sport 14m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 7th Jun 2020
2 shots
	23	★★ Big Shoulders And Beer Guts - with lloyd wishart	Sport 28m, 13	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 22nd May 2017
Pretty annoyed that i screwed up the start..came down, switched to the left bolt to start and climbed to the top. Epic pumpy battle on this today, as i was pretty nervous about pulling on the left hand, after have trouble with my wrist again on the 27. Great climb though! NOTE: Do yourself a favour and stick clip the left bolt, as the right bolt (start of the 24) just creates drag and makes it harder to clip the left bolt.
	23	★ Jigger Jeff - with Vanessa, Vanessa	Sport 17m, 10	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 3rd Feb 2018
Cleaned up an old doggie...
	23	★★ Searching for the Light - with Vanessa	Sport 24m, 14	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 30th Jun 2019
	23	★★ Destined for Grayness	Sport 12m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 11th May 2019
Quick lap, while belaying Vanessa on Gargoyles.
	23 22 R	★★ Love Hurts - with Annette	Sport 20m, 5	Kangaroo Point	★★ Very Good	Thu 2nd May 2013
Had a shot at this a while back, thinking it was NUT. Nailed it first go this time. Fun mantle! Nice climb
	7a	★★★ Crazy Monkey - with Vanessa	Sport 24m	Malta	★★★ Mega Classic	Fri 3rd Mar 2017
This thing is the steepest and probably the best 7a/23 i have been on. There were some damp holds and one very wet tufa that cost me the onsight but i was more than happy to go up again
	7a	★★ Nighthawks at the Diner - with Vanessa	Sport 12m	Malta	★★ Very Good	Wed 8th Mar 2017
Another great little line, that i probably should´ve onsighted but i get fooled by the amount of features on this rock. Wish it was longer.
	7a	★★★ Perseus - with Vanessa, Becky, Daniel	Sport	Gozo	★★★ Mega Classic	Sat 11th Mar 2017
Up there with the best i have done at the grade. So many features, so much fun! Onsight blown by getting my fingers stuck in an undercling and ripping my finger trying to get it out. The sun was blazing and no wind but it was still ok on the secod go.
	23	★★ Tim's Vital Life Juice	Sport 15m, 4	Coffs Harbour	★★ Very Good	Sat 5th Oct 2013
Took a couple more goes than i wanted but it felt great when it went. Really nice route.
	23	★★ Sex And Drugs On The Rock And Roll	Sport 15m, 7	Coffs Harbour	★★★ Mega Classic	Sun 6th Oct 2013
Yew! Second shot went quite easily. One of the best routes i have climbed yet, awesome moves and great fun from start to finish! Right up my alley! Great way to finish the trip
	23	★★ Gangbang Wall - with Lewis	Sport 18m, 5	Kangaroo Point	★★★ Classic	Wed 1st May 2013
Moved better through the crux, happy to send it. Really nice route.
	23	★★ Fatman Scoop	Sport 20m, 4	Brooyar	★★ Very Good	Sun 22nd Dec 2013
Loved it, great little route, felt like a nice send
	23	★★ Cutopia - with Vanessa	Sport 20m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 27th Nov 2016
Slabs frighten me every time! The climbing on this was rad but I lacked testicles for the crux on the onsight. Still a tad frightening on the second burn but got it done. Its at least 30 tbough
	23	★★ Fashion - with Vanessa, Jason McCarthy, Jenna Brady	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sun 13th Mar 2016
This bloody thing took me 2 too many shots It was incredibly spoogey early on and got progressively cooler, throughout the day. 3rd shot...
	23	★★ Pulling On the Porcelain	Sport 12m	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Sat 12th Jul 2014
Nice roofy fun! I was last of three of us in row ticking on the second shot. Damo first, then zac.
	23	★★★ Still Life - with Vanessa	Sport 10m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Sat 3rd Jun 2017
Trucky to onsight but not too bad once you find the holds.
	23	★★★ Amazon Queens In the Avocado Jungles Of Death - with Vanessa	Sport 20m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Sun 30th Apr 2017
Yeah, this route is so good! Nice to clean up the old dog but it took me another 2 shots today, making it 4 all up (2 shots 3 years ago). I reckon this is harder than Koala and Zimbabalooba.
	23	★★ Beef Master - with Vanessa	Sport 8m, 4	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Sun 22nd Oct 2017
Felt pretty solid at the grade but the conditions were pretty humid today. Really punchy,fun climbing! Second shot.
	23	★★ Monkey Magic	Sport 10m, 4	Mt Tibrogargan	★★★ Classic	Sat 19th Oct 2013
First shot today, after having a play on it a while back. Awesome fun! Quite sustained and thin, for most of the route, really nice
	23	★★ Tripitaka	Sport 14m	Mt Tibrogargan	★★ Very Good	Sun 18th Aug 2013
Good fun
	23	★★ By Jovi - with Nathaniel	Sport 14m, 4	Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton)	★★ Very Good	Thu 4th Oct 2018
Zero chalk on this, so i wasn’t sure when to head right from the 22. Found a rad sequence though and putt plenty of chalk and a couple ticks on it. Went down second go but had to battle to the 3rd bolt. Wouldn’t wanna blow the clip at the 4th...
	23	★★★ Weaveworld - with lloyd wishart	Sport 25m	Victoria Range	★★★ Mega Classic	Thu 7th May 2015
Pretty cruisy today. Shows how badly I was climbing on sunday here. Proper classic route, especially the finish
	23	★★ The Cramps - with Fil Pulido, Vanessa	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 8th Apr 2017
Got really pussed off when i broke off a ticked up crimp, after onsighting all the hard stuff and taking to the sky! Those first couple bolts are pretty hard in less than perfect conditions but i had no drama on the second burn. Aside from that hold, the rock is good and the climbing is fun. Took some good footage and pics from the anchor too.
	23	Back Hand Tosser	Sport 12m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 26th Apr 2014
	23	★★★ Weak as I am - with Ash	Sport 22m, 13	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Mon 20th Jul 2020
Finally ticked this one off the dog list. Great fun.
	23	★ The Tea-Ladies from NATO - with Will Vidler	Sport 15m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Thu 7th Sep 2017
Tried this ages ago, thought i'd better tick something off today, so i jumped on again. Its pretty hard at the grade but quite short. Pretty fun too. Second shot today, after working out the crux.
	23	★★★ Walking Wounded - with Vanessa	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 17th Sep 2016
Just awesome! Should've onsighted but i kept reaching up and not finding the crucial hold at the lip. Campused the next move, as i couldn't get my feet high enough
	23	★ Quaking - with Vanessa, Vanessa and Fang	Sport 18m, 8	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 26th Aug 2017
Onsighted the hard one and sat on this one. That crux hold is a broken, sandy piece of shit and i couldn't commit to using it at first.
	23	★★ Spot Gold - with Matt Brooks, Vanessa n Jess	Sport 13m, 8	New Nowra - Braidwood Road	★★ Very Good	Sun 16th Apr 2017
Super hard to onsight with no chalk but not too bad once you can see the holds. Broke a jug off the top on the second and took a big fall and got it on the third
	23	★ Freeway - with Matt Springall	Sport 16m, 7	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Sat 10th Mar 2018
This felt quite hard without a long wingspan, especially onsighting. Foot slip on the second go and cleaned up on the third. Still felt solid at the grade.
	23	★★ Fifty Shades of Mt Druitt. - with Jenga	Sport 25m	The Woolwash	★★ Very Good	Tue 28th Oct 2014
	23	★ Check out my Junk - with Zac	Sport 8m, 5	The Woolwash	★ Good	Thu 20th Nov 2014
	23	★★★ Sensory Overload - with Paul Frothy Thomson	Sport 20m, 12	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 6th Dec 2020
Happy to lap this easily for warm up. Still a little pumped but not too bad.
	23	★★ Find The Positive - with lloyd wishart	Sport 15m, 7	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 17th Jan 2021
First day on rock in weeks, i was cautious with my leg at first but then did 2 clean laps.
	23	★★ Let the Wookie Win	Sport 14m, 7	South Pacific	★★ Very Good	Mon 8th Jun 2020
I like how this climbs but the rock isn't great and it seems to get dirty easily. Particularly the top, which is super thin...
	7a	★★★ Wot's in It for Me? - with Vanessa	Sport 20m	Malta	★★★ Classic	Mon 27th Feb 2017
Went back to knock this off but the crucial pocket at the top was wet from the pouring rain last night and this morning, so i fell at the same spot. Bugger! Will come back later to put it to bed.
	7a	★★ Tufa Baroque Direct - with Vanessa	Sport 12m, 8	Malta	★ Good	Tue 14th Mar 2017
Yet another failed 7a onsight attempt and another stupid rope wrecking anchor...
	7a	★ Manic Cure - with Arpad, Jakob, Becky	Sport 11m	Malta	★ Good	Sat 4th Mar 2017
Another failed attempt at a 7a onsight/flash. Got real close but again with sharp holds and some crap beta, i didn´t get there. Will come back to it.
	7a	★★ Magnetic Fields - with Vanessa	Sport 10m	Malta	★★ Very Good	Fri 3rd Mar 2017
Not the end of day onsight i was looking for.... I got spanked on this! It was really burly at the grade but good fun.
	23	★★★ The Mind Boggles - with Patrick Vieider, vanessa	Sport 40m, 18	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Sun 3rd Apr 2016
Ahhh shit! I misread the finish and kooked it...such an awesome route though. I'll do it again someday
	23	★★ These Cats are Full Of Milo - with Matt Springall	Sport 20m, 8	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 3rd Mar 2018
This was really good but hard at the grade, in my opinion. Easily a grade harder than the 23 to the right. Fell 2 moves from the top with my hands crossed up.
	23	★ Chook Lotto - with Vanessa	Sport 15m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 27th Nov 2016
Went for an onsight on my way out and should've but misread a move and fluffed it! Great little route, will come back to it.
	23	★★ Wedding Bell Blues - with Vanessa	Sport 12m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thu 31st Dec 2015
End of a long day, starting at 4:30am...This thing is hard, although if i really wanted to do it, i'd do it earlier in the sesh. Really should stay off it though, the bolts are bad!!!
	23	★★ Black Beddy	Sport 8m	Nowra	★ Good	Sat 12th Jul 2014
Followed zac up this and worked out a nice sequence for the crux but was too gassed on the second go and last burn of the day. Bit of a sandbag me thinks
	23	★★ Jock Itch - with Vanessa	Sport 12m, 5	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Sun 22nd Oct 2017
Tried for the onsight but couldn't work out the top. Might have been the slime.
	23	★ Voyager (Voyager p3) - with Julian	Sport 95m	Mt Tibrogargan	★★ Very Good	Sun 28th Jul 2013
Seemed to climb this quite well, compared to the previous pitch. Had to work the exposed crux out but it was heaps of fun. Will come back for it, one day. (we we're supposed to be climbing aphelion anyway, oops!)
	23	★★ Gut Punch The Buddha (Gut Punch The Budda)	Sport 12m, 5	Mt Tibrogargan	★ Good	Sun 19th Jan 2014
I'll tick it another time. Not great but not that bad
	23	★★ Melting Moments	Sport 30m, 8	Flat Rock	★★ Very Good	Wed 24th Apr 2019
Even better than it’s neighbour. I couldn’t commit to the crux over the bulge with a 100kg belayer that i just met though. Will do it another time for sure.
	23	★ My Girl	Sport 10m, 2	Bangor West		Mon 8th Jun 2020
	23	★★★ Los Hermanos de la Denitente - with Vanessa	Sport 10m, 4	Mount Alexandra	★★ Very Good	Sun 7th Aug 2016
Yeah, its about 25....worked it all out but it would've been a little out of my reach, at the end of the day. Needs ti be at least 24, in my opinion. Very unique and really good!
	23	★★ Smoko - with Vanessa and Chris	Sport 35m, 16	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sat 27th Dec 2014
Warm up to halfway anchor. Crux was quite hard for me on this. Gave me more trouble than the 25...
	23	★ The Living Daylights - with Vanessa and Chris	Sport 12m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Fri 1st Jan 2016
Stiff warm up, small holds...
	23	★★ Major Tom - with Chris	Sport 12m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Thu 1st Jan 2015
Big start move! The rest was interesting and fun but i was blinded by the arvo sun, coming over the lip and i threw my hand at what was looked like a hold but was a bit of dust...
