	17	★ Maximus	Trad 13m	Arapiles	★★ Very Good	Thu 24th Mar 2005

	17	★ Spectator Sport	Trad 10m	Orroral area	Average	Sat 20th Mar 2004
very dirty. Scary first ever trad lead. Easy climb though. First move just within reach
	17	★★★ Flake Crack	Trad 53m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Sat 23rd Apr 2005
Flake and Crack in one pitch. A little pumped at the top but so glad I made it!!
	18 17	★★★ Oceanoid	Trad 75m	Arapiles	★★★ Classic	Mon 21st Nov 2005
P1 only to date. Ring bolts at anchor. Fantastic, committing and thought provoking.

Nothing too hard really. Just pleasant climbing.
	17	★ Pavane	Trad 68m	Ben Lomond	★★ Very Good	Mon 17th Nov 2008
P2 is awesome. P3 is pox. The whole climb felt like a giant game of jenga. pull the wrong stacked block and the whole cliff will end up on the scree slope. Should have brought RPs.
	16 17	★★ The Second Affinity (Affinity)	Trad 22m	Arapiles	★★ Very Good	Tue 13th Apr 2010
Don't overthink it, just enjoy it. Good rock.

	17	★★ Equilibrium	Mixed trad 140m, 2	Orroral area	★★★ Classic	Thu 21st Jul 2005
Me P2 (crux), Clancy P1&3. A real treat - secure slabbing if your head is in the right place. Perfect winter's weather
	17	★ Conscientious Pontius	Trad 13m	Werribee Gorge	★★ Very Good	Sat 26th Aug 2006
Pretty straight forward jamming
	16 17	★★ French Crack	Trad 11m	Arapiles	★★★ Classic	Mon 27th Aug 2007
A real sweetheart.
	17	★★ Viparete	Trad 30m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Sun 24th Apr 2005
The climbing is about 15/16 but the run outs make you think a little more than average...
	17	★ Wildcat	Trad 20m	Victoria Range	★ Good	Mon 28th Jan 2008
Looks grade 10 climbs grade 17. Would be solid at "15".
	17 17 R	★★ Checkmate	Trad 85m	Arapiles	★★★ Mega Classic	Sun 26th Aug 2007
Me P1&3. Marta P2. Awesome! Not as scary as the guide book makes it out... or is it?
	17	★★★ Little Red Riding Hood	Mixed trad 25m, 1	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	Sun 21st Aug 2005
From the main ledge. Fantastic position. Great moves with the hardest one bolt protected. 2 belay carrots. What more could you want?
	17	★ Dan the Bulldog	Mixed trad 60m, 11	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	Sat 1st Oct 2005
Nice first pitch.
	17	★★ Swinging	Mixed trad 20m, 2	Arapiles	★★ Very Good	Mon 21st Nov 2005
Couple of nice moves then it's all over. Pleasant.

	17	★★ Surface To Air	Trad 30m	Arapiles	★★★ Classic	Wed 7th Sep 2005
Straight forward with great gear. Soft.
	17	★★ Xanthene	Mixed trad 94m, 4	The Cathedral Range	★★★ Classic	Sun 25th Nov 2007
Fantastic crux pitch. Fun for the whole family. A little toasty in the sun.
	17	★ A Quick Prick From Rick	Trad 12m	South Coast	Average	Sat 21st Jan 2006
Hot, humid and hot. Did I mention it was hot? three stars? only for the area maybe. Far from substantial but nice, unique setting.
	17	★★ Sap	Trad 55m	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	Sat 1st Oct 2005
First pitch (15) only. Good climbing.
	17	★★★ Mari	Trad 35m	Arapiles	★★★ Classic	Sat 11th Nov 2006
Hot and humid makes for a little greasy jamming...
	17	★★ Overkill	Trad 23m	Summerday Valley	★ Good	Sat 17th Jun 2006
Soft if you are above about 5'10". Fun enough
	17	★★ Witch	Trad 21m	Camels Hump	★★ Very Good	Sat 18th Nov 2006
Solid move
	16	★★★ Deep Space - Sickle	Trad 90m	Orroral area	★★★ Classic	Thu 29th Dec 2005
33 degrees in shade. Marta led P1. Me P2&3. P2 serious but not technical. Repositioned belay for P3 to below Icy Universe. Guide book wrong. Look for thin diagonal down and right from the base of the Sickle hand crack.
	16	★★ Rose Ramble	Trad 22m	Freycinet National Park	★★ Very Good	Wed 1st Dec 2004
Nice to half height then I tended left with run out up slabby groove. Didn't care for 3 m layback.
	16 16 R	★★ The Confession	Trad 45m	Arapiles	★★ Very Good	Sat 3rd Oct 2009
Good fun.
	16 16 R	★★★ Brolga	Trad 90m	Arapiles	★★★ Mega Classic	Thu 24th Mar 2005
Me P1&2. Marta P3. No where near as run out as I thought it would be (cf granite). Most committing bit is moving off on the second pitch. Two balancy moves - made harder by a thousand feet, rest is beautiful pleasant slab climbing. Get on it!
	16	★ Rats Tail	Trad 20m	Summerday Valley	★★ Very Good	Sat 18th Aug 2007
	16	★ Feltham	Trad 14m	Launceston (Cataract) Gorge	★★★ Classic	2005
Thought it was a 17! Oh well... Nice funky moves.
	16	★★ Van	Trad 44m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 31st Oct 2004
Excellent well protected and comfortable face/crack climbing.
	16	★★★ Watchtower Crack (The Watchtower Crack)	Mixed trad 95m, 3	Arapiles	★★★ Mega Classic	Wed 27th Dec 2006
Me P1&3. Marta P2&4. Everything everyone else says! An absolute ripper with techy moves in places.
	16	★ Give Yourself a Kiss	Trad 10m	Point Perpendicular	★ Good	Sat 9th Oct 2004
Classic corner. Stemming, face climbing, jamming, laybacking - all in 10 m!!
	16	★ Hadrian	Trad 12m	Werribee Gorge	★ Good	Sat 10th Feb 2007
Enoyable
	16	★★ Materialistic Prostitution	Trad 20m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Classic	Sat 10th Nov 2007
harder than it looks. solid for the grade.
	16	Burning Deck	Trad 9m	Point Perpendicular	Average	Sun 6th Mar 2005
Gear is bad above horizontal traverse. Even the traverse break is full of sand! Certainly gave me the true point perp experience, but falling in the pumpy top section certainly not recommended.
	16	★ Celeste	Trad 25m	Arapiles	★★ Very Good	Sun 20th Nov 2005
Lovely steep corner with great gear and climbing. Shame about the easy start and top. Ring bolts 5 m above the top of the corner.
	16	★ The Changeling	Trad 25m	Summerday Valley	★★ Very Good	Sat 18th Aug 2007
	16	★★ Rohanda	Trad 40m	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	Sun 14th Aug 2005
Excellent traverse. Fun belay spot and good climbing above.
	16	★ Androcles	Trad 27m	Werribee Gorge	Average	Sat 28th Jul 2007
A couple of good moves then resist the urge to vomit
	16	★ Road To Ruin	Trad 25m	Freycinet National Park	★ Good	Wed 1st Dec 2004
	16	★★ Saracen	Trad 110m	Arapiles	★★★ Classic	Tue 22nd Nov 2005
Manky 2nd half to first pitch - rest is stellar. Great position. If confident could do in 2 55m pitches...
	16	★ Jason	Trad 30m	Arapiles	★★ Very Good	Wed 23rd Mar 2005
Really nice moves. Not too slimy. Positive edges to smear against. Cool move coming out of the corner. Gear right there. Pity the top half was so straight forward.
	16	★★ Yo Yo	Trad 90m	Arapiles	★★★ Classic	Mon 5th Sep 2005
P2/3. Great moves.
