22 | ★★ Super Commuter - with Heath Black, Harry Kadi | 33m, 14 | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sun 12th Aug 2018 | ||||
Would be a classic at so many other crags but it's just not quite as mega as it's neighbours. Wild and improbable climbing up a super rad feature with a little bit of everything to keep it interesting. A great route!

Awesome climbing, awesome feature, awesome rock! Absolute classic linking the scoops on this glorious orange wall. The must do warm up at the crag!

The line of the crag! This climb stands tallest amongst a crowd of giants. Top work Monty (and Evan for the excellent finalé)!! Awesome scooping to a crimpy traverse and wild finish up the prow, topping it all off with a mantle to clip the anchors! What an excursion!! Has some really crazy (but delicate) features that you might avoid holding so that others can behold them in the future! Plenty of well placed bolts, a bunch of air, some pump, some rests and a whole load of fun! Radical!! You can lower from the last bolt with a 70 (just) but otherwise re-thread at the first or second bolt.

About as good as a Blueys route can get at the grade (and quite tough at it, too), with generally pretty perfect rock up interesting scoopy features. Would be the trade route at any mainstream crag.

23 | ★★★ Red Bellied | 28m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sun 5th Aug 2018 | ||||
Intimidatingly featureless on bullet-hard, slick rock... But surprisingly, with some technique, it's enjoyable and not too hard. The final rising traverse an intriguing end-cap to the pitch.

24 25 | ★★★ Four Seasons - with Heath Black, Ben Sanford, Stephen Varney | 45m, 20 | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sat 28th Aug 2021 | ||||
Lots of moves, but no shutdown crux. A climb of two halves, and both worthy. The upper section is hilariously unlikely.

Awesome. No bad rock, and never a boring bit as it meanders up radical, improbable features. Possibly the best route at the crag.

Awesome, unlikely climbing with some mega positions. Even staying on the arete direct this isn't too hard, but it IS brilliant.

23 | ★★ Unknown 5 (new for 2022) - with Heath Black | 35m, 16 | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sun 18th Sep 2022 | ||||
Aside from a horrible start, and a silly anchor position, the other 30m of this route is enjoyable, sustained, an varied. There are a handful of hardish moves that probably make this 23, but for the most part it's continuous, rather than cruxy. The fact it tackles 3 rooves at the grade is pretty cool.

Ticked up and draws on this felt fairly easy for a 24. Most ascent wont be like this so it can stay a 24. Another super long route with so much fun climbing.

Ummm 26 going on 23. If you forced yourself to climb 30cm to the right for one bolt it would be 26 but if you climb the crimps just to the left of the bolt its much easier. Still a quality route but not at the grade.

Total adventure up the wall with a tricky start to some tough final moves to really gets the forearms cooking, top it off with a full whale like mantle, and you have got yourself the newest classic in the blueys!
