24 | ★★ Church of the Seven Samurai - with Heath Black | 110m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Thu 26th Nov 2015 | ||||
Better than expected (and worth more than the 1 star in the current guide). P1 & P2 - 2nd Clean; P3 - Dog (fell at the main crux, battling sandy, muddy holds, though I essentially read the crux right); P4 - Onsight. Neil made a monster 60m pitch by linking P1 and P2 into a sustained face-climbing epic (with reasonable pro and rock) marred by a scarily chossy start. P3 is sustained corner crack climbing with a bouldery crux and very spaced pro. P4 is short, very steep corner climbing and punchy.

This is a very fun route! The gear is good, the climbing on the upper two pitches is excellent if you are a corner conisuer.
Alec's first multipitch! Pitch 1: and 2 are your standard mountains horizontal face trad. Onsite. Pitch 3: I guess after the rain this week there was 5 key holds on the Crux of this pitch that were wet. Still climbable you just have to do a harder sequence. The crux is superfun on this pitch! Fell off on the onsite. Fell off second shot due to the dampness Lowered to the base of the crux and went to the top so overlaping 1 sit. Pitch 4: Another wet hold 😞 Second shot placing This was a rad corner pitch! This route is still climbable even if the holds are damp! Stoked to get the 24 pitch done on my 6th pitch of the day 🙌 |

Seconded the two first pitches clean.
I started the lead up the 3rd pitch (23) but needed a take after barely making it across to the horizontal break after the first two carrots. It was actually already very difficult for me, especially with several holds wet, slimey, sandy and broken. Moving up from here was even hard for me to aid, and after taking so long to progress beyond the next bolt up, I decided to bail (down climbed using sling assistance on carrots and then traversed left along ledge to double rings on the climb over). Pretty cool moves but I'd say the 23 pitch is more like grade 24/25. |
