Ascents in Central climbing areas as Red point

Amazing rock quality

Yeeeeew! Stoked.

Really good and a little frightening. Classic, best line on the cliff (?) .

Wooo! 25 on gear, take that drunk Dave and Mitch!

Woooooo! Dude, absolutely classic. Bomber rock, number of different styles of climbing in the one route, crazy top out, loved it. Tell ya what I had to fight for it though, heel hook popped on the bulge crux and had to squeeze with all my might to stay on, spicy. Gear: #4, #0.75, 2x#0.5, 2x long extenders and three draws 🤙

Classic tricky traverse followed by a nice move at the top

Awesome pumpy route. Great picnic spot and swimming hole, combined with a southerly facing aspect makes this sector a no-brainer in warm weather.

Bruh, small techy crimping into a full blown comp style boulder at the end. Mega!

So good

What a banger. Sweet moves and beautiful location

Didn't ride the trapeze this time

This is neat, deserves another star. Delicate start and the more moves you do the easier it gets so just keep shuffling! Feels pretty soft for a gara 23

Good to get back on this after a decent break. Hung around under the crux and thought about it too much before finishing it. Ample ways to attack the crux, my second shot was clean.

Missed out on the onsight, locks up high were a super awkward size for me. Taped up the fingers and got it second go though 👍

First shot involed mining through the dead trees at the top. There is no suitable anchor at the top besides trees well back. (maybe consider lower offs as this route is proper classic).

Second shot involved me pulling the crux then rather than using a leading heel hook I chose to use a leading sheniqua ( my butt) to shuffle onto the ledge. Turns out that lichen is quite slippery and I started sliding off upside down to my horror.

Managed to recover though ahaha

Really good rock, fun jams. I loike it. First few pieces already placed as cbf cleaning after first go.

Glad to finally get on this and send after its long incubation period, got it 3rd go

Send! Stoke is high. Executed the bouldery first section perfectly in 2 mins. Then took me around 6 tentative goes up and down over 25 mins to get comfortable with the 5th clip and then slapped and thrutched my way to freedom. It did not climb the way I'd visualized.

Fun climbing with a punchy start. The challenge set is to establish a direct start and eliminate the current 2m rest from the ground.

After a few failed starts I tried something new and got going. A really surprising route that has a bit of everything. Classic find Skippy!

First go wasn't sure where to pop to the letter box, got it second go. A mist of fine bugs

Lots of mental rehearsal. Once you commit and get into it it’s not too bad, holds are pretty juggy and the mantle is probably technically the crux.

powerful down low

Climbed it and then paddled a kayak over it a few months later. How often can you do that?

one of the first bolted lines in the gorge sic climb

A mysterious new bolt has appeared at the start to replace to one which has been missing for two decades

Top roped for a second time and then led. Hardest lead so far

The last move had me pondering.
