Ascents in Lower Tier having Beta

Cool climb, but the whole start of the rock feels hollow. Bolts are solid tho

Reminded me I love slabs

Sandbagged. Felt bloody desperate at 20, even for granite slab and accounting for the conditions. Couldn't make much progress so jugged up in the end to get the rope down.

Think we did this. If so, it's located South of Three Moves to Glory by about 150m on a boulder by itself. Up a Easterly facing arête that has a single carrot. Belay carrot on top to walk/ scramble off.

more runout than the 16, but was now expecting it xD

first climb of the day, did not expect the 10ish meter runout to the chains because thecrag says it has 12 bolts

the whole diagonal traverse was very enjoyable climbing

climbed the first half like 3 times to access or prepare different climbs

felt harder than bolts on granite slab imo. did a very satisfying high foot

Great!

Lost rubber on both toe boxes attempting this one. Have to try it again at some point after a shoe repair

First route at Black Hill, a nice lead with some interesting moves!

Fun climb! Only the 2 FH no anchors above to lower off. Able to walk off via dead tree located round the side of the climb or can lower off the anchors found on the grade 22 called hard sht. Ended up walking off down climbing the dead tree and stick clipping the quickdraws to remove them.

Nice

Share the Shark Fin Soup cam for protection

The start is tricky. The rest is good, need a cam protection above.

well its a nice climb, but quite hard for the grade. under the roof was very wet and quite hard to jam. through the roof was just shit, i did aid a few pieces to get past it. past the roof is a fist crack and wider at parts, can layback and use a few features on slab or stick your whole arm in there!!! need 3x blue and silver cams if you don't want it scarily runout or bumping it up a long way to stay protected. will try again when cave is dry if i come back here.

Racing darkness climbed this to clean penetration.

Getting to the bolt was fun, couldn't stick the last moves.

We had such a good day. Area was fire damaged.

Brilliant layback slabbing up the arête, and a fantastic test of one's confidence. Got it third attempt after a couple of progressively higher bails onto a bouldering mat.

Got to bolt fairly easily but then couldn't work it out. Hard.

Short and sweet.

Short and sweet.

This seemed far more straight forward than Russel's Mega Route though it's a grade harder? Maybe being tall helps?

Nice

I found the move to get above the 1st bolt a little awkward. Just had to ‘man up’ and do it

fuckin granite got me again. need to work on my body tension, friction and balance. struggled all the way until i got comfortable with the lay back.
