Sun 16th May 2021 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd Cosmic County Area Cosmic County Memory Lane
	24	★★ Junction City - with Paul Frothy Thomson	Sport 27m, 13	★★ Very Good
Start boulder wasn't too obvious to me at first but got it on the second go. Quite fun after that too.
	20	★★★ Mindblower - with Paul Frothy Thomson	Mixed trad 20m, 3	★★ Very Good
Felt pretty hard for 20, but i guess it's on par for this area. Great climbing. Flashed on pre-placed gear.

Mount Victoria Area Engineers Cascade
	22	★ Mechanical Advantage - with Yulid Shorrock	Sport 13m	★ Good
Ripped the starting jug off the wall as I started to pull on and fell horizontally and pulled up about a foot from a full face plant. I was pretty shaken but got straight back on and onsighted the route so I’m still claiming it, even though technically I fell.
	17	★ Living in the Outside - with Yulid Shorrock	Sport 13m	★ Good
I was a little concerned about the quality of the rock on this route and I was just about to mention it to Yulid as I ripped the first hold off the next route. It was alright for a low grade climb.
	23	★★ Psychotic - with Yulid Shorrock	Sport 16m, 5	★★ Very Good
Felt pretty cruisy at the grade, though i got pumped because i was shaken from the previous route.

Blackheath Area Celebrity Crags Sharon Stone
	25	★★ Beaver Shot - with Steve Cooper	Sport 20m, 12	★★★ Classic
Finally got it done and it was a doddle on the warm up. Might have to try to take something else down before surgery. Also, having done this and the 23 plenty of times lately, this is definitely a better route but gets one less star?

Leura Sublime Point East Faces Subliminal Wall
	23	★★★ Subliminal - with Paul Frothy Thomson	Sport 92m, 33	★★★ Classic
Pretty happy to get the onsight in horrible, hot conditions. There was a storm moving overhead and the humidity and lack of wind were disgusting! Great climb, will gladly do it again. Climbed from the belay for Sojourn/Sabbatical/Castaway, as i had planned to try one of the harder routes but it was far too hot and sweaty and instead of doing the silly long traverse pitch.
	21	★★ Castaway - with Paul Frothy Thomson	Sport 65m	★ Good
First pitch only, for warm up. There was a lot of dirt on this, which made the onsight tough! The crux was harder for me than the crux on Subliminal, at my height.
