Ascents as Onsight by Doug

Plenty of options. Roof is not worth the effort.

One move.

Packs a punch from the ground to the chains. So much funkiness.

nice little holds.

Engaging from the ground

Mid 90s. So good and just as sustained and even more improbable than I remembered.

Sport route with optional cams. Some delicate arete moves. Start is more pleasant than it looks. Probably still soggy at 18. Nose-butting sharp edges not recommended, chunky gusher.

Nice climbing and positions; don't know what Geoff's on about. 1st climb with people since covid.

In flip flops. Seems overgraded.

Not as big as you think and better holds too.

Maybe a 1.

Warmup in sandshoes. v2 on the moon perhaps.

Quite sustained and a reasonable crux.

More engaging than it looks. Delicate pebbles.

Tasty.

Classy climbing. So many jugs. Somewhere between 13-17. Sportingly bolted.

Cool layaways. Sportingly bolted.

Solid at the grade.

Surprisingly insecure. On from go to whoa. Felt plain hard keeping left with a committing crux. Risking matching the crack and mantling right may have eased the difficulty.

Inobvious start, delicate mantle, thin slap with proper bad feet and engaging finish.

The most normal route here. Nice pockets. A very long stretch directly over the bolt (maybe go left?) and cruisy finish.

Fun delicate thinking persons' moves.

This is the warmup I was looking for. Nice balancy moves with rest stances. Prob 19, or just warmed up. A touch short for the 2nd star.

Not the warmup I was looking for. Great climbing, and pumpy with tech crux and route finding. Maybe 21 or just not warmed up. Tad short for 2nd star, although a lot of climbing in a little space.

20/21 1 bolt boulder to bolted crack. Fun top that's easy to get wrong.

Boulder start to vertical bushwalk and a move at the top. Good beginner route.

Fun jug hauling. Rampant inflation.

More jug hauling, with half a crimp move. Bit short. Rampant inflation.

A fun, thoughtful ramble. Maybe 19 if you go uber-direct.

A bit stressful. Top half is quite nice and traffic will help.

A couple of oddly placed bolts detract, good rock though. Nice enough and if you use the ring from the 18 it's a sport route. Use care to finish. Might climb better on repeat.

More pleasant tale than gripping yarn. Awesome friction slabbing at an amenable grade with lots of bolts ... for a slab.

2nd pitch is nice, the rest is forgettable. Pretty soggy at 20, especially for the Gib.

Onsight in '04. Remember it being a bit cruxy and then pumpy up top.

TRS inspection 17 years later confirms.

Best sport single pitch 18 in the mountains?

Gotta search for it. On from go to woe.

No hands slab. Linkup is 3 stars.

Steep. Classic as a linkup. Bit of a sting.

Not totally trivial start to route finding finish. Only just.

Worth doing. Crazy 4wders.

Tad dirty but good movement.

Yes the 1st pitch is icky and a bit hard but the 2nd pitch is the money. So airy and take just 1 or 2 smallish cams...not a full rack! Typical summer arvo from smoke-filled, baking 28C to 15C, heavy mist and massive windchill. As noted this does the Screen Gems crux and then some. Multi-ing is a good option and yes you can walk off.

Sail Away crux finger lock to uber-consistent climbing at the grade on beautiful rock.

High kick'n! Feels less ledgy than others, everyone loves steep jugging and a real crux of more than 1 move.

old skool full body through the roof to insecure slab. Good warmup.

slippy slopey pumper traverse to quite the pull. Tad sandy.

Straight up from start to a similar horror mantle seems more logical. Used some mantle 'determination'. I'm sure there's an elegant way, but I didn't find it.

Fabulous limestonesque climbing. 22 if you're 5'0".

Crux sneaks up on ya. End of day pump, barely didn't fall off.

It dreams of being 21? At 19 it'll be very good with more traffic.

Fabulous climbing and position at the grade. The traverse and moves around the arete are hilarious. Best easy route in the Sydney basin. Overgraded by a lot.

Steep, not loose, not too dirty.

Nice steepness to a quick thinking boulder (and not getting sucker to good holds) and a couple of insecure slab moves. One star.

Straight forward start, fun steepness and cute finish.
