20 | ★★ Choc Chip Chai - with Adrian Kladnig | 15m, 7 | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Classic | Mon 16th Sep 2019 | |||
Great climbing!! Only a couple of thinner moves, nothing too hard, just pumpy. Possibly soft at the grade if your beta is good

20 | ★ Beta Mail | 10m, 4 | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sat 25th Aug 2012 | |||
Cool little climb, groovy moves. In-grade, one thought provoking move and great friction on ironstone.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Nice Vice Baby | 20m, 9 | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Classic | Sun 17th Mar 2013 | |||
Great climb, very though-provoking but do-able crux. Some seriously thin feet but awesome over the lip. Generally: put a draw through the perma-rope at the badly placed bolt under roof. Then gain lip, reach down and put your own longer draw on it, then keep going.

20 | ★ Rock Snob - with Adrian Kladnig | 12m, 4 | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Mon 16th Sep 2019 | |||
Don't know why is gets no stars! Climbs well, just 2 bolts of sandiness, with great movementand a sudden punchy crux. I thought it was great! Very similar to neighbouring climbs.
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Araldite | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Fri 1st Apr 2016 | |||
Great route! Funky crazy but well protected finish. Very manageable for 20.
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Wild Honey - with Barry Jung | 7m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Tue 10th Oct 2017 | |||
Left rising traverse. Delicate foot movements. Lovely little addition to the Soft Parade. Thanks to Barry for both the bolting and the belay on my first first ascent on rope!
|
||||||||
20 19 | ★★ Jack High - with Sam Clark | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Classic | Sun 12th Jun 2016 | |||
Excellent excellent climbing. Thin and crispy climbing, good rests and had to have a good think and stare to figure out which tiny crimps were the ones through the crux. Well worthwhile.
|
||||||||
20 19/20 | ★ Charlene - with jayden rouse | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sun 20th May 2018 | |||
Was a bit confused getting to 1st visible hanger at 10m, then excellent and well protected bouldery climbing up slightly overhanging face. Goey but fun and good clipping positions between crimps. Very worthwhile. Supposed to start up right corner/arete jumble under Murmel Snooze arete. I traversed in from Noodle/Thunderfart corner. 2 x shiny carrot bolts (one sticks out a long way though) out of sight at top of little arete well before the hanger you can see from the ground at 10m. Good to know.

20 | ★ Duckling | 12m, 4 | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Thu 25th Jan 2018 | |||
Feel this is 21 and the 21 beside it is easier. Short but good climbing.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Tapering - with Brent | 15m, 5 | The Hide Away | ★★ Very Good | Tue 10th Jul 2018 | |||
Little bit of everything with balancy slab crux and overhung jugs to finish. Really nice climb!
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Old Blobby - with Adrian Kladnig | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Fri 5th Mar 2021 | |||
Burly start which can be done moderately gracefully and quickly. Then very consistent moderate pump. Lovely to do the warmup I usually flash pump on clean and relaxed today
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Spinning Blades of Steel | 9m | Nowra | ★★★ Classic | Mon 2nd Jul 2012 | |||
Awesome climb, hero moves, well bolted. Taught me a lot workshopping ths one. Especially how to relax on jugs when it's upside-down land.

20 | ★ Dr Foopsickle | 8m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sat 17th Nov 2012 | |||
great climb, sharp pockets and crimps, not a great warmup and goey, but good.

20 | ★ Truancy Officer | 15m, 4 | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Mon 25th Mar 2013 | |||
Definitely only one hard move, and yes, softish for 20 but a genuine soft 20 if you're short. A first 20 to lead to more sustained 20's. Cool moves.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Early Funk - with Tom Collins | 15m | The Woolwash | ★★ Very Good | Sat 16th Jun 2018 | |||
This flows really well once you figure out which alternate middle or finish you're doing. Left most start, traverse, right most finish up crimps with good feet
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Straight For The Safe - with Adrian Kladnig | 12m, 7 | Elanora Heights | ★★ Very Good | Mon 30th Sep 2019 | |||
Good, just with a slightly goey crux, especially if the humidity is high!
|
||||||||
20 19 | ★★ Powerbra Rangers | 23m, 8 | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Classic | Thu 3rd Jan 2013 | |||
Great climb, amazing moves, good for the grade at 20, maybe a little feisty for 19 like in the guide. Really exhilarating.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Sidetrack | 18m, 7 | Nowra | ★★ Very Good | Sat 15th Oct 2011 | |||
Greta climb, fiesty start off boulder, I don't hink it's easy for 20 at all. Crux is reachy for shorties, but then real shorties can get foothold that I can't get and it's easier....
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Throbbing Pole Of Love | 15m, 7 | Nowra | ★★ Very Good | Mon 2nd Jul 2012 | |||
Great climb but definitely much harder than 20. Hard and crimpy followed by more hard and crimpy. More like 22
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Strange Karma - with Scott Kelly, Josh Khoo | 15m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sat 1st Dec 2018 | |||
Still an excellent climb with one punchy, well bolted move in the middle. Very worthwhile. There's an out of sight carrot before anchors too.
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Statistical Scare Tactics | 15m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sat 23rd Mar 2013 | |||
Fell off the anchors cause it started raining on the jugs!! Great climb, a little feisty at the top for 20 cause an undercling has ripped off, but not too much harder, just a bit more reachy/techy. Coming back for sure!
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ The Balrog | 16m, 7 | Nowra | ★★ Very Good | Sat 16th Jul 2011 | |||
Really techy, slopey crux on the arete. Committing. Cool.
|
||||||||
20 19 | ★★ Hot Flyer pitch 1 | 18m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Classic | Sat 27th Oct 2012 | |||
Some thin moves, cool climbing.
|
||||||||
20 17 | ★ Burning Jowls | 18m, 8 | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Sat 14th Apr 2012 | |||
Feisty if you're short, runout over ledge on thin moves. Totally doable but a couple of really thin moves if you're under 180cm. Other climbs on this wall much more in-grade.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Corrosion Castle - with Adrian Kladnig | 35m, 15 | Joll's Bridge | ★★★ Classic | Sat 6th Jun 2020 | |||
Best climb here so far!! Great rebolt and fantastically worthwhile!

| 37m, 14 | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Mon 25th Apr 2016 | |||
Great climb, little on the physical side for the grade at points but good climbing and varied. Did as one long pitch and topped out.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Quirrell's Quarrell - with Jackie Charles | 25m, 10 | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Thu 9th Apr 2015 | |||
Good route, as per previous comments, good bouldery 17 to high crux, then great crux moves but thin, sequency, and a bit heady for your average 19. If you told me 21 I wouldn't argue. But well bolted and a worthy addition to a well-travelled wall.
|
||||||||
20 21 | ★★ Flash Flood - with Tom Collins | 18m, 7 | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sat 26th May 2018 | |||
Pumpy warmup but great climbing with non-obvious crux solution solution that avoids the "wtf" moment. Really cool.
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Sniffing Dogs - with Jara | 15m | Joll's Bridge | ★ Good | Sun 29th May 2016 | |||
Good climb partly ruined by bad bolt placement. Could use its own anchors and just a bit randomly put up. Good moves though.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Absolute honey - with Jara | 13m, 4 | Joll's Bridge | Average | Sun 29th May 2016 | |||
Old school 20, bit strenuous, worthwhile but not great.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ Woodface Direct - with Adrian Kladnig | 35m | Joll's Bridge | ★★ Very Good | Sat 6th Jun 2020 | |||
I think this was 30m to the anchors on the big ledge (as for Woodface, you can do the final 5m with a coupld more rings through the overhang to top out - looks cool.)I had a 64m rope and we abseiled with plenty to spare to the ground from 1st anchors. Ledge is a 90 degree edge, I wouldn't lower off the 1st pitch of this one. Bring second up and abseil. Good climbing though, and licheny blank-looking slab was nowhere near as blank or licheny as it looked. Good climbing!

20 | ★ Technorabble Variant - with Adrian Kladnig | 15m | Narrabeen | ★ Good | Tue 25th Aug 2020 | |||
Reasonably coo climbing but is was a dripping spooge puddle this day.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★★ Theory of Negativity - with Adrian Kladnig | 22m, 9 | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Classic | Mon 23rd Sep 2019 | |||
Bloody fantastic, and nothing hard or crimpy, just pumpy. Did as a warm up and flash pumped at 2nd clip. Other than that, smooth sailing. Really great!
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Scramble Syndrome - with Adrian Kladnig | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Mon 14th Jun 2021 | |||
Messed up the crux, but good climbing, mixture of holds, and an easy runout to anchors.

| 43m, 15 | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Sun 22nd Sep 2013 | |||
Pitch 1 reachy but awesome, a few sequences through some of the crux moves, left/right options. Great lead by Jara on the 2nd pitch. Super runout between 2nd and 3rd bolt. Aaaah the old "but it's easy (chossy) ground" defence. Good but not as good as most people report. Other 2nd pitch options look like they could be great. Awesome view at top

20 | ★ Bitter Harvest - with Adrian Kladnig | 12m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Fri 28th May 2021 | |||
Bit goey at 20, feels like 21 if you do it right. Thin in the middle.
|
||||||||
20 | ★★ In the Wind | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sun 14th Jul 2019 | |||
So close! Excellent varied climbing. Headwall less blank and more flowing than it first appears with helpful bolt placements to prevent hitting slab. I found the last few moves powerful and pumpy at 20, but others didn't. Well protected finish. Very worthwhile and epic orange headwall is great! Lots of deceptive holds.
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Glory Hole - with Brent | 15m, 7 | Narrabeen | ★ Good | Tue 10th Jul 2018 | |||
Got a bit lost at the start following chalk! Series of balancy moves and mantles, with final mantle as the crux. Anchors recessed against wall over the top.
