Ascents in Bayside

3rd bolt now replaced. 3 stars for the position, and hopefully a bit of traffic clears out the sand a bit

Bomber gear, straightforward enjoyable face climbing

Glorious jugs

Honestly not certain if this was even the route we did. Originally was searching for Hello Dolly but lost our bearings. We had no plates for the carrot bolts so we just kept walking from what we thought was the Hello Dolly wall back towards the lighthouse, spotted some u bolts (there was 3 of them), lowered ourselves and just climbed up. Mostly all jugs, there were a few ledges too.

Quite enjoyable. Would make a good warmup

Rach getting a good lead in

Really beautiful arete, recommended! Did this one as a false trad lead, learning to place gear.

Fun little corner.

Very nice route, did this one as a false lead, learning to place gear.

Quick repeat lap with mate.

Christ almighty!!!!!!!! Where even to begin? It was an EPIC, that's where I will start.

The sun was setting on our amazing weekend climbing point perp's gorgeous sea cliffs, above oceans abundant with whales, dolphins, seals, fish, and boats all playing. We all (5) decided to wrap down and finish together. Erin (LaErush), Jesse and I were finishing with a gr15 multi, that I wanted to lead for trad and exposure training. First thing that happened was a rock underfoot snapped as I tried to start the climb! Not good for headgame, but wanted to go anyway. Everyone was helpful and backed me . I led but not without issues - sunsetting, carrot rings popping due to my inexperience, and needing to downclimb to fix those and trad placements!! Whip fear was real. Erin seconded completely in the dark (epic effort) and Jesse cleaned.

I was most proud of the trad anchor I built and top belayed them on - it was Bomber and my friends sat in it. The boys who taught me (dyl/haz) should be proud of themselves for the knowledge pass.

While all this was happening on the gr18 crack that dyl and haz were on next to me there was knees poppin out and yelling but I was dealing with my own shit to help! fuck alllll happening what insanity. Dyl then lowered us torches and jumared up. wild.

we all got back together after for a huge elite pasta feed and debriefed the madness. A real EPIC! woweeeeeeeeeeee

Gorgeous climbing up a long route. Pretty awesome spot, views and arete to wander up. La Erush was born here on to do some great things im sure!! Jesse lead and then I took out and replaced all the gear, so to practise identifying and placing trad gear. Good practise and good for headgame! loved it

Gorgeous climbing at sunset with the boys. Fun moves up a longish single pitch route, keeps you thinking, but enough jugs for the soul. hahaha lovely finish , pinching myself after what was an epic first day out at Point Perp!

Couldn’t ask for a much better time at Point Perp. Absolutely delightful climbing and stunning position (the top half); finally spotted whales splashing about while I was on the arete. Incredible!!!

Very happy some of my gear; particularly with my chicken head sling, my tiny thread, Bd #4 nut and my nest of gear before the final moves.

So good!!!

Pretty awesome!

Quite fun, lots of big holds.
