Another Bluies mega classic trad route. I linked P1 and P2 into a awesome long pitch and Jenna linked P3 and P4. Trad climbing doesn't get much better. Be careful of the loose block in the start below the small tree.

	18	★★★ Gold Star	Trad 58m	★★★ Classic	Ro-boat
Good climbing in both pitches, I found p1 harder than p2 - probably because I'm a horrible crack climber though. Good half way belay stance.

Went off course and ended up going left instead of up the face. Lead 2nd pitch with very little in the way of gear placements. Should read beta before climbing I blame my partner who assured me the route went left!

Enjoyable. Traverse pitch has plenty of small cams to protect leader & 2nd. Use slings at start of 2nd pitch to reduce drag. Traditional tree belay on top ;o)

	21	★★★ Vincent HRD	Trad 28m	★★★ Classic	Ben Jenga
A classic Boyce gem and a line that should be on any crack climbers list. Traverse off the ledge and out over the void onto the line. Great gear, sustained hand jambs and plenty of jugs, plus its soft so what more to ask for..

	20	★★ Say Cheese for High n Wild	Mixed trad 36m, 2	★ Good	Ben Jenga
Good long trad wall with only two carrots. Started up this just as the rain rolled in but thankfully it only sprinkled. Got a bit scared on the run-out middle section when I couldn't find any worthwhile gear. Glad the climbing is easy.
	25	★★ Bronze Orange Bug	Sport 30m	★★★ Classic	Ben Jenga
I have forgot how good Mt Boyce is!! This climb has been on my list for a while and after Andy cleaned, chalked and removed a few holds I had the pleasure of crushing through the low dyno crux. The rest of the route is only about 22 but climbs super featured orange rock in a great position. Aweome.
	20	★ Grand Slam 2008	Sport 20m	★ Good	Ben Jenga
Following Andy, gee wiz it was getting windy. Not sure about anyone else but we both found this nails slab climbing.
	16	★★ Gold Star Pitch 1	Trad 30m	★★ Very Good	Ben Jenga
Great little warm up crack, a little damp at the start but some good locks at the crux.

Where did my lead head go - biggest "can I just close my eyes and go home now" moment in a while. GEAR BETA Take more small cams and big hexes. Watch that terrifying loose block at the start, there's a great thread on the right take a double length sling.

Decent scambling.
	15	★★ Wild is the Wind	Trad 80m	★ Good	James
Afternoon adventure with heavy packs to avoid the walk out. Over shot the first belay, spotted it and had to be lowered back to it! Look closely at the photo topo. Route is awesome, especially at sunset. The wind is amazing and the huge ledge is magic, all the wind dies out there and you can hear weird echoes. OS P1, Second P2, Second P3.
	15	★★ Wild is the Wind	Trad 80m	★★ Very Good	Sam May
Minor adventure at the end of the day with huge packs, topping out in the dark. Challenging route finding on P1 and the start of P2, with the belay in an odd spot. After that, cruise home on jugs past the deluxe belay ledge for P3.

Probably closer to a 19, though only for 1 move. Didn't enjoy as much as I thought I would. First pitch is pretty straight forward, but not particularly exciting. The second pitch is cruisy except for the one crux move. Simply doesn't compare to Firebug for the 3 stars at this end of Mount Boyce.
