18 Korok Climb — 2 attempts Sport 15m Good
Philip Barker
Really good climb with small but surprisingly sturdy crimps and feet. I think the traverse move about half way was the crux and could push it to 19 but it may have just been because I'm out of practice. I hang dogged the first go to clean some holds then climbed it clean the second time. Had to commit to the crux more than I thought I would have to 🤙 😊.

Would be fun mixed climb. Not sure if you're meant to use lower crack, I went direct up slab which is a little harder but still soft for grade

There aren't any carrots, they're on Horn Dog

 
18 Easy old pumpy Top rope 8m
Simon Leo
Nice start with flake holds and good holds at top. Just a few slopey crimpy holds in middle but soft for 18. It's worth brushing off dry moss because there are sometimes holds underneath!

Tricky move around the corner out of the cave. The two u-bolts just below this point are only two feet apart...weird.

Cleaning. There are a few moments that are engaging even on the third or fourth run through.

First free-ish ascent. Very good. Needs to be bolted but I'm going to log my progress on here for diary keeping purposes. I think a big flake needs to be pinned to the cliff for safety.

Awesome!... If the holds stay in place. Needs more traffic to test the rock quality. But a really fun climb with some interesting holds.

This rock is sooo soft. There's a lot of bulgy flakes at this crag that have a bit off mass but not much strength.

Fun little route, just have to be picky with the holds, unlike the more sparse slab beside it

12 Trad Lads First Day Out Trad 8m
Simon Leo
If you're topping out, or abseiling down, there's a big broken boulder on top that sounds hollow but isn't budging easily. Best to use Yoda anchor bolts anyway. Easy cam placements but more interesting crack if you ignore holds on slabs either side

Bullants followed me up my rope. I gave the first few climbs (1-6) a clean, with brush and leaf blower (hence the bullants). Will continue cleaning other climbs soon and will try to improve the access track and base of climbs

Great jams and for both hands and feet made it a lot of fun. Used some face holds but tried to stay in the crack as much as possible. Just wish it was longer!

 
17 ~18 Pox — 2 attempts Trad 12m Good
Philip Barker
Bouldery first moves to lay backing and super easy top out. Moves more committing than next door neighbour Artists Crack so probably should be 18. Needed a lot of cleaning but once the choss was removed was quite good. 👌

Water feature at base nicely complimented by flora and leaf litter around top. True micro-clim(b). Will give it a clean when drier

Boulder start indeed: haul or campus into the wall then easiliy up the jugs. Maybe 18-19 start.

At last some honest old grading and technique: chimney like a sweep and don't be tempted to go wall climbing.
