22 ~21 | ★★ Looking for Johnny | 25m | Average | ||||
Rapped in and realised I needed much much bigger gear (likely two 5s and 6s) to avoid committing to a dusty, dirty crux during a runout so opted to just second/top rope out. Felt on the grade but could be 1-2 grades inflated from the moss and vegetation.
Climbs a little like if Juggernaught (Frog) and Savage Journey (Lost World) had a tryst. Not sure I recommend doing it when you have a sport buffet above and a trad smorgasbord across the valley at Cosmic County. |

19 | ★★ Bairds Effort - with chris elo ciaran | 37m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Chris was rearing to go the morning after jungle juice and i was keen to escape being home and hungover so we grabbed elo and ciaran and went to find I31. An exciting wet approach with a creek jump and some sketchy wet gully descending. Eventually our canyoning efforts deposited us right in front of the line and it was pretty epic. Chris put the gear up and led smoothly. We all had a run up it, ciaran stubbornly refusing to use the crack and then running off to deliver a tutorial online from the middle of the bush! With a new batch of rain gently setting in, i thought it would be a sound call to start up bairds effort cos the first 7% of the climb was undercover. A very aggressive start getting off the deck into the levitating sealed corner went as a rock over on rattly fingers followed by a nice gr 13 swing around the roof. Some desperate looking finger crackage above turned out to be very reasonable with the right feet and wire placements. The carroted runout slab to the top felt alot more committing than the approximate grade 8 climbing in pouring rain. A spooky alpine touch. Nice wet weather adventuring!

Not sure how this counts as climbing out of the crag when you have to descent back down into the gully from the back of the block you top out on. Do we get style points for doing it in approach shoes?

This isn't the first classic I'll trash but hopefully not the last. Yes it's got some cool lungey arete moves and things. But the start is a turd. 'V0 boulder problem'? More like 'why didn't they bolt this key section of the climb'? Have fun decking on a grade 20(?) Runout start to an 18. And of the few carrots it has, some are in pointless areas.
I get that we want to preserve original bolting, and cosmic has an old-school run out ethic. But this pro doesn't seem bold and heady, just frustrating. A dangerous disservice to a great climb.
Otherwise have a lovely time, merry Chungus.
This the maid speaking by the way.
