the flake feature is cool but feels like it’s peeling off the wall. Still fun though

	19	★★★ Pine Crack - with Yimbo 1 Second lead by Yimbo A great sustained pitch with cool climbing through some big scoops in the rock. Yimbo veered left toward the top and probably turned it into a 20. There was a seam of friable rock up there which when I reached I thought was just sand on a hold. Dusting the hold rubbed the damned thing away! I dug myself a jug and prayed it wouldn’t blow! 2 Trad lead by Robert Hartley Down climbed about 3 times before committing to the push through the roof! Nearly blew the onsight because I’d pumped myself out in the process. Super cool sequence through the roof and then easily to the top.	Trad 65m	★★★ Classic	Robert Hartley
Awesome route! Yim and I were undecided what to jump on after Flying Buttress but I’m glad we picked this! Both pitches are excellent, with P1 being more sustained and P2 being slightly stiffer.

	14	★★ triple hot and skink - with Hugh Edwards	Trad 20m	★ Good	Bruno Alves Buzatto
A decent option if you want to warm up for crack climbing or have little time at the end of the day (rings on top), like we had. In Adelaide it could have more starts, but at Moonarie I think 1 star is very generous really...

New favourite Moonarie route! tricky and dusty start for sure; had to take on my first red cam, come down and try again. sustained (sandbagged) and unique climbing, followed by an epic belay ledge and wonderful roof to start the second. scenic as!

	17	★ Oedipus - with Vaughn Thomas	Trad 100m	★ Good	Kelly Thorpe
Old school full adventure route! We couldn't fit through the squeeze at the start of the crux pitch so traversed left, it was engaging. Not sure what others experience was? For pitch 2, belay your 2nd up from under the large boulder, then walk your belay around and on top of it afterwards to reduce rope drag.

	15	★★★ Pagoda Variant - with tanja	Trad 100m	★★★ Classic	Jack Seawright
Tanja got the money 3rd pitch which sure was the money! Nice airy traversing on good holds. I made sure the thrills didnt go all her way though by browning out on the 2nd pitch with a completely unnecessary mantle that didnt strike me as gr 13. Tanja took a stick up to fish out a nut from the pagoda flake the guys had told her was there, ended up getting 5! I tucked my shoulder into the flake to seek refuge from the sun. To top things off we encountered another wildlife wonder.. a lizard styling for us ontop of a can of rocks.
