Ascents in Asia as various tick types by o_g

Actually used a couple of mono's. Sweet!

steep! razor sharp edge at bolt 4.

Got a bit scared about 2 rusty bolts, but was able to place a sling in crack to left to back them up. The roof felt hard, and the upper wall was pumpy on rounded marbly horizontals. A bit dusty, but good climbing.

Unusual climbing. Good value.

Good climbing, but a bit short and uninspiring compared too its neibours.

Good route. Cool sequence to get established on the wall above the roof.

Well named. Pulled of a 'plutoid' next to bolt 3, and almost decked as Ben was pulled up to bolt 1. I must be getting fat. Route still climbable.

Had to have a crack, after Matt and Pauls awesome onsight and flash. Came of 5m above the 'Hotel' cave on the flash, then ok second shot. Almost pumped out moving left to the rest 5m below the chain.

Another long pumper. Loved the way that the holds near the top (where the angle eases) become small and slopey.

Not an ideal warm up. Buddy taping seems to be working.

Climbed P1 and P2 combined. Makes a great long pitch. P2 felt no harder than P1.

With Terry. Tenuous moves moving left onto the arete.

The climbing isnt brilliant, but the experience is great. Thanks for carrying up the beer Matt!

Somehow managed to technique my way up, with the help of lots of finger tape.

Really, really good climb. Get on it.

Warming up with Matt. Nice wall in a nice area.

With Terry.

Managed to clean up the dog from last week. Sweet.

Tricky start.

No mistakes today. Still felt really hard.

Awesome. 2nd shot today. Tested Matts belay skills on the first shot, by falling while trying to clip the bolt just below the lip. Quite the fall.

Straightforward to half height, then bloody hard crux moves.

Great looking line. Climbs well too. Felt an impossible sandbag as I dogged my way up it, but felt great second shot. Really technical with polished feet.

Enjoyable. Tweaked something in my side.

The tufa seems like it is going to break, but I remeber thinking that 3 years ago, and its still there....

Climbed this in super poor style. Lots of grovelly tufa humping, that provided mush ammusement.

Worthwhile.

Much more overhanging than it looks.

was bitten by wasp at bolt 2... managed to soldier on.

This is Ta Ma De. Graded 5.11b in 2010 guide.

Struggled on as warm up.... Very hard move for grade

Nice climb. Hard for the grade

Great positive pockets. Excellent. Did with 1 rest in Nov 2009

Really polished on traverse. Steep fun

Is 5.11b in 2010 guide. Had 1 attempt in Nov2009

Climbs the fortress wall for a few moves then up the face.

Felt tough for the grade

Great fun. Overhanging flake is crux. Nice tufa blobs up high.

Nice but polished

Pretty easy

Found this very hard. Near end of big day.

Excellent. 2nd shot. Also dogged up it to set toprope.

Good climbing.

Had top roped in 2008. Excellent. Pumpy.

Had done previously. Nice.

Ace. Thin exiting the cave, then pump management.

Brilliant route. Excellent line, rock and climbing.

Contrived. Easy for 5.11a
