Ascents in Arrivals (Lower) by Ben Jenga

Almost fell off lap.

Lap. Goes from ground to very steep quick

Good fun, some cool holds and sustained climbing

FFA. With the bogus weather I couldn't get on my main project so I thought I would clean this up. Who knew 14deg and 96% humidity was good ticking conditions.

Sick rig, just like a Nowra Boulder problem.

Training lap.

No quite as good as I remember but still a good pumper

EOD lap, still found the seam hard.

Warm up lap.

Well well struck out 3 or 4 times today.. Pumper roof, to pocket crux on bomber rock..

Once I stick the lock to the pocket it should go. Reachy and rad.

Nice one rob, a little tricky to figure out down low but good juggy middle and fun steep arete finish.

Oh plus this one as well.. Not bad but not great.. A couple of interesting moves keep you working.

Lappin

Warm down lap. One best routes at bell regardless on the grade.

Repeat. Super fun mostly jugs pumper.

Don't you love it when you bolt a route and it climbs exactly the way you thought it would.. Sick boulder after the pumpy roof. Next time.

A big tick second shot after a big whip first shot. Putting on some of the draws can be tricky but once there on its a much easier route. A unsung roof pumper of bell for sure...

A quick lap after Andy's send.. Hiked the roof but pumped off the slick headwall again... Glad its a nice route so a couple more laps aren't a problem.

Not long after I got off lloyds 6.. Did the hard start easy then fell off just before the slab jugs..

Then the spanking started, after the rain the tiny holds were impossible to hold so I pulled through. Next time, maybe?? Its Hard!

I really enjoyed this one and with a little scrub and some chalk its back and open for business. Getting to the third bolt can be a bit gripping but really worth it for the awesome head wall. Pockets and edges on slick, polished rock. Pumped off the head wall second shot, I will be back for sure!!

Fun little climb, good start then fun sustained wall.

FFA. Bolt in the sun, send in the shade. The upside of a day that didn't go the plan.

24/25 it will need a few repeats to decide on the grade..? Fun roof boulder and funky moves on the short headwall.

I guess the grade is a bit of a swinging debate at the moment..?

Tricky start roof boulder then nice climbing on fun holds and good rock.

Hidden gem.. Hard and scary work at the start of the roof then fun roof jugs to the lip. I really enjoyed the headwall up until the second last move..... Give it a lash.

Sent placing the draws after sending my project. Felt much easier then when I tried it a while ago, sweet to lock the crux but I still had to work hard on the upper moves. Would be classic if it wasn't for the choss cave.

Repeat. Nice to revisit an older classic, great fun with a short lived crux that can be done a number of ways.

Warm up repeat. the crux is nice if you start with the right hand.

Hardest moves are on the slab, much easier once you have watched someone climb it first..

Not 20…Change the grade back to 18. First route of a odd weather day, snow on the walk in..

Repeat. A really good line and great climbing up a cool feature.

Sweet third shot today, would have sent second shot but muffed the start then went to the top. Awesome long steep route with many many hard/tricky spots but split by good recovery jugs. I think being tall makes this a bit soft but lots of fun, heaps of micro beta to be found on this climb.

Rad pumper!! Quick working lap at the end of the day, no really hard moves but lots of sustained steep moves on great rock. Super psyched to tick next time I am out that way.

Odd ball start that may looks easy but climbs awkwardly, I made it really bad with some horizontal finger locks. After the start the climbing is better but still a bit of loose rock up top. Not that bad to clean..

Sweet short action packed route, it my only be 6m long and have a fair section of jugs but you will be feeling it by the top. I saw a couple of mates trying this the only day but didn't see the moves or the crux so still claiming the onsight.

EOD felt harder then 23? Cool wall moves up the seam with some cool pockets for extra value. Had to pull through the crux on a crunky hand jam.

I didn't feel to bad until I pulled on this. Messed up the start which set a solid pump in my arms for the rest of the route. Really sustained in places on thin holds, best mono pocket at bell.

FFA. Here I was thinking this would be hard, sent it putting the draws on…. The first roof boulder is the crux so crush that and hold on to the top, the half way sit down is a welcome rest but does disrupt the climbing.

For when you run out of other climbs to do. Sharp Lor.

Good to clean up an old dog. Mainly jugs plus a few crimps, follows a cool line. I remember this feeling really hard a few years ago now 23 maybe??

Dang it!! One of the rare times that being tall sux, despite many different sequences on the first crux I couldn't figure a solid way of sticking the high foot awkward move. After 3 shots I gave up…. for today.

Not a bad climb but not the best warm up. Tricky footwork crux with another confusing move up higher.

Repeat. I have sent this on another trip but today with the cold and the wind and the wooden fingers I sand bagged myself for a stiff warm up.

FFA. Some good moves, get your wobble on.

Hahaha I thought this route felt hard for 22. Tricky and soild

You got to move around a far bit but its still fun

Fun climbing on bullet hard rock, didn't find it to bad you just have to crimp and use you feet. Chalkless ascent.

Repeat. Really great climbing.

Really fun climbing with plenty of jugs and some fun swinging moves. Great spaced bolting.

A good problem that favours the tall climbers.. The under cling is great once you can pull up on it but hard to power up on. I have seen many fail on the climb.

A nice climb but a bit harder then it looks.

Really nice climbing if a bit Sharp at the bottom. The roof is nice and steep with the good holds being hard to see.

Our first climb at bell and a nice warm up.
