Another classic gorge route. Short, but action packed. Sustained, tricky and varied. Struggled with thoughts of losing my fingers in the locks on the lead. Managed it clean first go on top rope afterwards.

Hanging belay just above water is fun for the novelty

Cleaning up an old dog. Classic gorge crack climbing. Intense for a short route.

Tough little old school burl. Good if clean.

What a line! So unbelievably stoked about this!!!! And very glad Scott pulled the rope on me so I couldn’t top rope it first 😆 Definitely easier for smaller hands

Grunty. Worth doing if you're in the area but don't go there just for this.

Surprisingly fun. Would be worth doing if it was twice as long and more accessible.

Great moves low down. Quite liked it overall. Rope kept getting stuck on a bit of old tree however, so didn’t get a clean run.

A stellar gorge climb. One of the best gorge routes, classy movement the whole way and made better with Ian (the first ascensionist) yell out from accross the river after I pulled the crux.

Really good new addition. Took a little bit to figure out how to do the start..then nice arete climbing, and completely independent line

Second lap. x2 leads going direct cranking up the arete at the start. Very nice

The other option, and probs easier - especially if you’re tall. Little pop to ok hold on right at the start, then creep back to arete. Also classy!

A quality moderate line, much better than it looks. A little reach towards the top but moves are fun and flowy

Apparently a crucial hold has fallen off the start, and there is an obvious scar on left. Definitely takes it up a grade in my opinion. Yet to do it without the tree. Nice easier climbing up top

Better. Clean from crux without the start (still using tree) this time up slabby face at top to finish rather than easier out left. Long draw for me on second U if I was leading I think

24 off the tree, pulling on without it feels like 26. I felt like I could almost make upward progress without the tree. Could be easier if 6 foot 4 and taller
