17 | ★ Postman Pat | 8m, 3 | ★ Good | |||
Burly from go to wo. Not the warmup.
|
||||||
Wed 11th Jan 2023 - Blue Mountains | ||||||
Mount Victoria Area Mount York Collits Crevasse | ||||||
20 | ★ Rock'n Roll Suicide | 20m | ★ Good | |||
Not the best warmup. Really nice climbing and sustained start, even once you've found the right holds.
|
||||||
Sun 8th Jan 2023 - Blue Mountains | ||||||
Leura Sublime Point West Face (Main Area) Middle Cliffs Binary Cave | ||||||
24 ~23 | ★ Survival Day | 20m, 10 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Interesting climbing and cool crux. Lots of intermediates and a kneebar mean you'd have to be pretty short to not reach.
|

Kenny's Wall | ||||||
20 21 | ★★ OMG Its a Goddamn Whale Plague | 13m, 8 | ★★ Very Good | |||

Newnes Plateau Gardens of Stone State Conservation Area Bung Crag The Red Wall | ||||||
22 23 | ★ Panem ethics | 18m, 10 | ★ Good | |||
Missed by >< much. One move wonder. The rest is nice but straight forward. Could call it 21 with a straight face.
|
||||||
Fri 17th Jan 2020 - Stanwell Tops | ||||||
Stonehaven | ||||||
21 | ★ Snack My Bitch Up | 12m, 8 | ★ Good | |||
Only a little contrived mostly due to squeeze. Do the final faces moves before finishing at arete. Pumpy as $*%@. Thought it would be easy on return visit - wrong!
|
||||||
Mon 30th Dec 2019 - Stanwell Tops | ||||||
Stonehaven | ||||||
22 | ★★ Pump left out | 15m, 5 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Short but nicely sustained to a punchy crux. Not the 18 warmup I was looking for.
|
||||||
23 | ★★ Warrior of Light | 18m, 8 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Bottom is really good. Crux is putting the last draw on.
|
||||||
Thu 26th Dec 2019 - Scarborough Cliffs | ||||||
Kenny's Wall | ||||||
18 19 | ★ OMG They Killed Kenny | 10m, 6 | ★ Good | |||
Follow the bolts at your own risk. Not the warmup I was looking for.
|
||||||
Sun 22nd Dec 2019 - The Hide Away | ||||||
The Prow Wall | ||||||
21 23 | ★ The Foot Fetish | 15m, 5 | ★ Good | |||
Can only assume FA didn't find secret undercling hole just right of 2nd bolt or are really tall/short. Undercling/mantle move to high feet and stand. Some insecure feet for 3rd bolt with tensiony undercling to crimp and high right foot and stand. Standard 20/21 slab stuff. Really fun and interesting but 23 gives the wrong message, stops you looking for the 2nd bolt hidden hold and makes you think 3rd bolt is gonna be nails. All easier than the OP crux.

Sat 23rd Nov 2019 - Blue Mountains | ||||||
Blackheath Area Gateway, Doomsday & Fort Rock Fort Rock Crag | ||||||
22 | ★ Company C | 16m | ★ Good | |||
bit cruxy. Exploding undercling

Mount Victoria Area Ikara, Victorialand, Odin Head, Thor Head Victoria Falls Left Side Upper | ||||||
21 | ★★ Spasmo's on Acid | 24m, 9 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Shoulda done the off-balance crimpy bulge 1st time rather than trying to boulder out the direct gaston. Sneaky way out left via hidden pocket that is best option and climbs great.
|
||||||
Fri 27th Jul 2018 - Cinderella Crag | ||||||
Pitt Street Wall | ||||||
21 23 | ★★★ Unchained | 25m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Top to bottom stunning moves. Such a wonderful mix of flowing movement on great stone. The pocket pulls, the locked in high traverse, the funky finish.
Suited my style, good conditions? But 4 weeks on the couch and a gammy knee? 21 seems right. Maybe the low traverse is 23 - looks slopy and awkward enough. |
||||||
Sun 20th Nov 2016 - Stanwell Tops | ||||||
Hargraves Wall | ||||||
23 | ★★ In Lieu of the Gym | 12m, 4 | ★★ Very Good | |||
3 cool rooflets. Lay off the pocket on the 1st. Unlikely pinch undercling for the 2nd. Wild left hand undercling and right foot backstep level with your hand to finish. Slightly contrived to not wander over to BtS at the finish.
|
||||||
Sun 30th Oct 2016 - The Hide Away | ||||||
The Prow Wall | ||||||
22 | ★★ Jack Spaniel | 14m, 6 | ★ Good | |||
Hard start and finish. Good moves
|
||||||
23 | ★★ Hidden Gem | 12m, 6 | ★ Good | |||
Good top half. Sneakily pumpy with some weirdness over the bulge, leading it harder moves and final heartbreaker. Slight self sandbag at 22.
|
||||||
Sun 30th Oct 2016 - The Hide Away | ||||||
Descent Gully Wall | ||||||
22 | ★ Gettin Wet | 10m, 5 | Average | |||
Not the best warmup but fun climbing. Somehow didn't fall off.
|
||||||
Sun 22nd May 2016 - Lucas Heights | ||||||
23 24 | ★★ Cortisone | 15m, 7 | ★ Good | |||
Slip low down first go.
Not quite as awesome as it looks but clean and dry! A few fun first crux moves (start right rather than direct over bolt) into some trad leg and potentially scrotum slicing sitdown action, a couple of quick slaps and then cool (mostly solid) jugs. Pumpy little number.

Good for the kids
|
||||||
Sat 19th Mar 2016 - The Cathedral | ||||||
Main Crag | ||||||
23 | ★★★ Hercules Extension (Hercules Direct Finish) | 22m | ★★★ Classic | |||
The extension tips it into classic. Not that hard a crux move, not that easy a slab. Different solution for short and tall people.
|
||||||
Mon 4th Jan 2016 - Blue Mountains | ||||||
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd Bell Supercrag Fox Hole | ||||||
23 | ★★ Mango Chutney | 16m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Very cruisy today. Knowing the lower crux and having the draws on changes everything. Was very fresh at the top which is important.
|
||||||
24 | ★★ The Apricot Slot | 14m, 9 | ★ Good | |||
Fell off due to Jason's fear of pockets and smacking my elbow into the wall instead of a casual sidepull. Great link into Plumtastic. Good easy climbing with one goey move off the slope to the ledge. Punching to the slope out right near the Plumtastic bolt might make this an easier and better (soft?) 23.
|
||||||
Wed 4th Nov 2015 - The Paradiso | ||||||
21 | ★★ Man's Machine | 32m, 10 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Would be classic in the blueys. Bouldery crux that I did by going onto the right face. Fun climbing on spaced bolts, a little route-finding delicate step-around and not to be rushed finish.
|
||||||
Sun 21st Jan 2007 - Blue Mountains | ||||||
Mount Victoria Area Renitz Pass | ||||||
22 | ★ Trad Exterminator | 30m | ★ Good | |||
Dejaflash. Very nice sustained bottom followed by delicate climbing above ledges.

Matto Grosso The Dungeon | ||||||
25 | ★★ Bozon | 12m | ★★★ Classic | |||
insecure 2nd clip. Onsighted the rest of it. Beautiful slopers. OS crux at 4th bolt. Misleading at 5th. A brush helps with the chalk down low.
|
