21 | ★★★ Comic Relief - with Will Kluck, T-R Climbs | 20m | |||||
Bloody pumpy, and freaky at the start. Struggled to place my first piece, fought to the roof where it seems to be a finger crack. Had a rest, found some good hands and charged to the top. Right before the anchors I struggled on the balancy move with thin gear placed (my fault) and managed to get the top. This was a battle, but it was a ton of fun

25 ~24 | ★★★ The Reckoning — 3 attempts - with Anthony Cuskelly | 20m, 2 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
A cheeky trad 25(?) to close the year out. 2 tie ins for beta, 3 to send (a low percentage body wiggle crux).
Feel like there isn’t really a difference in difficulty here with pre placed gear… and cleaning the roof between attempts would be a pain in the arse. Happy to walk away with a pink point and a giant crack gobie as a prize. Very cool roof trench with minimal off widthing! |

19 | ★★ Sideshow - with AJ | 35m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
All went pretty well, spaced the gear out a bit but would be clean falls. Technical footwork between good finger locks in general. Stepped left to arete rest at top and thought this can't be it, stepped back right and seems I took direct finish. 19 for that but standard finish would make it 18 I think. We are done. Back to camp, took a pratfall in slippery jandals with back landing across tree root. Rest day now please, maybe 2.
|
|||||||
18 Hard | ★★★ Entertainer - with AJ | 20m | ★★★ Classic | ||||

|

15 R | ★ The Joker - with AJ | 25m, 1 | ★ Good | ||||

ice cream. had time to do one last climb before the trek back home. mentally prepared for this route including all the rests and gear placements (thanks Nic & Sarah). didn't factor in that one of the rests didn't exist, and that i would be super pumped and needed to downclimb many times after placing gear. was well rewarded with the last sunset of Arapiles and an OTR soft serve (highly recommend!)

I intended to check out Last Laugh, but I got distracted, and instead I did a little variant of Comic Relief: from the big horizontal break after the large flake, go up from the pebble in the break to a small edge; this soon rejoins Comic Relief. It's a straighter line, not much harder than (and not as good as) the original, but worth checking out if you're looking for something different...

Far North Upper Curtain Wall | |||||||
24 R | ★★★ Terminal Drive — 2 attempts - with Nick Murphy | 30m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Mega classic. Rapped in and put the gear in on account of being old and scared and frankly, intimidated by the route description.
Turns out it's really well protected everywhere with normal gear ... except for the slab which is really well protected by firstly a black TCU, then the crucial pink, and bomber pink TCU. A bit of everything - a crack, a slab, some weird blocky Arapilesian stuff and of course the crux-y roof to finish. Ended up doing it clean twice - blew it off the deck with cold fingers then out of the roof like everyone seems to on the first shot, then all good after that. Grade is fair. |

This route is really, really good - I'm staggered more people haven't tried it. Eventually figured everything out, although took a few goes to actually figure out where the holds were.
Went left at the 4th bolt into AHLBB because we couldn't see any holds at all straight up. Still 26 though, even doing it that way (the move up and left are both hard anyway) ... would love to hear from Gordy if he was able to solve it going straight up from the scoop-of-no-progress just after the 4th bolt. |

I hope this stays as the most sandbagged 24 at Araps instead of being upgraded. probably harder than most 25s around and some of the 26s. Went first lead attempt without inspecting the gear, however this could have been a good idea. Got to the crux where I was sure a blue hex would slot in but found it to be too big for any of the gear I brought with me. I ended up stacking a red and blue hex which seemed to not be going anywhere, committed to the crux move and sent. stoked! A bum rock classic!

Got very pumped. Plenty of jugs to tackle the roof between the butt cheeks!

Hardest Trad onsight to date! The description on the crag makes this sound like a death route, but the start is fine if you treat it with respect, like you should with all Trad climbing. Safer than the log to get to the upper wall on the left!
