Ascents in Shock Wall/Fire Bug Mall

Only one or two grade 20 moves on it. Nice airy fun for a quick hit of exposure.

Flashed on pre placed gear

first pitch only - watched Brad the trad meister get properly rattled on the second pitch and decided due to time to just rap off - awesome moves, accidentally jumped through the hand jam crux

Finally got around to doing the second pitch of this which I was stoked to onsight in good style. First, though, I did pitch 1 clean on second in approach shoes which was desperate and tenuous and desperate. Wear climbing shoes people!! Pitch 2 definitely lived up to the hype though and was awesome and intimidatingly steep. Sooo much good gear!

Another easy trad classic ticked off the list and one that I thought was very solid at the grade. Harry led a giant first pitch, climbing we are not sure how many actual pitches and finishing on top of a big block. This left the awesome overhanging cruxy section to the top out for me which was just fantastic. Highly recommend!!

Awesomely fun clean corner crack climbing that felt super cruisy at the grade. Bomber gear to be found everywhere!!

Classic crack climb and sadly one of my last at the grade on the Bluies trad circuit. Great jamming on mostly hand sized gear that felt like it would still be soft at a grade less. The only down side was some sandy rock. I love trad climbing.

Decent climbing but on generally pretty average rock. Felt very solid with fairly substantial packs on, especially the second pitch. A bit of an odd mix of mostly bolts and occasional gear. Highlight was the exposure!

The exam for Ben's trad lesson today. So, so classic.

An eternal gem, better with every repeat. Liz led the first pitch and did some brilliant trad grovelling, I was very proud.

It looked like a 14 from the ground and the guide but wasnt, we were on the wrong route. Chose to retreat instead of suffer in the heat

pleasant enough stroll

would have enjoyed it more if warm

good for the grade, but I dont like seconding

loved pitch 3

Would get about 5.9 on granite. Starts in corner and passes a bolt heading out to crack

Maybe monkey face 16. A bit grungy, but worth a go

Did about a decade ago with tony Williams, alt leads

Well bolted, great moves, really Nice climb

Not well bolted, a lot of pretty crap rock

Fun climb, good funky moves and enjoyed the cave of bird poop!

Had to lead it to get stuck rope! Nice lead

Top rope solo in trainers. Not harder than 18.

With Nick. I led P2. Easier than I remember.

good to do on double ropes so you can wander around getting some worthwhile pro. It rained on me for the last half. Not reccommended in the rain! Our 60m rope reached the deck with a stretch.

2nded Nick

Josh lost my #2 cam this time

Very enjoyable. 3 good pitches.

great crack climbing

OK. Will get better with mor ascents. Lots of bolts!

Get on this tradsters. Good route now it's clean
