2nd shot. Retro-onsight attempt for warm-up went poorly - found the route pretty pumpy and hard to read. Fun climbing once I knew I wasn't going to pump off and hit a ledge.

High first bolt, worth stick clipping. Bouldery start, to some cool lay backing moves after the 3rd drawer.

Pumpy but enjoyable route, really struggled with flash pump
	24	★★ No Mustard on Withdrawal	Sport 21m	★★ Very Good	Mark Foyle
Crux moves very stiff at grade 24! Recommend bumping to a grade 25, would be a very commiting lead

Warm up
	22	★★ Terra Incognita	Sport 20m	★★ Very Good	Mark Foyle
Nice route, tried for the lead onsight and fell just before clipping the 4th Bolt. Struggled with energy and flash pump all day. Route will go after working the moves a little
	23	★★ Japetus Direct Finish	Sport	★★ Very Good	Mark Foyle
Nice route, only pulled onto the route as my last climb and didn't have too many issues that weren't caused by bad beta. Should go clean next time

	22	★★ Terra Incognita - with Bill Begg	Sport 20m	★★ Very Good	Carl Schneider
Gave it a go on top rope, was on the rope a bit so just an attempt. Bit disappointing that I'm so weak at the moment :-( Did the start pretty easily but that's easy to say when it's top rope not lead! Got to work this and October a lot more to build up my strength...
	21	★ October - with Bill Begg	Sport 12m, 3	★★★ Classic	Carl Schneider
Gave this a go today and KNEW it would be a challenge as I felt I wasn't strong. It was a challenge indeed. Got up the thing but was on the rope and with a sit etc no not a tick as such at all. Different beta from last time looking at the notes on my last tick; in hindsight staying right is easier than going left at the start. Gotta get on this a lot more to build up my strength.

absolutely butchered it pretty tired by the time i got on it so called it a day there.
	18	★★ Terrathea - with Nick K	Trad 20m	★★★ Classic	Demetrius
Had some shiny new gear to place, but it was a bit of a struggle hardest this line has felt.
	23	★★ Japetus Direct Finish - with Nick K	Sport	★★★ Classic	Demetrius
2nd go. Still a bit of a battle but so much better than my first attempt.
	23	★★ Japetus Direct Finish - with Nick K	Sport	★★★ Classic	Demetrius
Felt hard and pumpy on what i through was easier ground, that completely threw me

Pre-placed a cam and nut just above roof to protect start moves. Rested on a cam a few metres off the ground.
	22	★ Sardine	Sport 21m, 6	★★ Very Good	Mark Foyle
Same as previous ascent yet I now know the beta for after the crux. Should hopefully go on next attempt!
	22	★ Sardine	Sport 21m, 6	★★ Very Good	Mark Foyle
Led from 4th Bolt, took a lot of sits to figure out the beta
	22	★ Sardine	Sport 21m, 6	★★ Very Good	Mark Foyle
Lost beta after crux and had a fall. Rest of climb was clean

	21	★ October - with @chris	Sport 12m, 3	★★★ Classic	Carl Schneider
A few weeks ago after given this a go (again) I decided it was a horrible climb and it could go and fuck itself. Gave it another go (sports) today and got it clean second go no problems. Lovely undercling near the start and a really nice side pull over the the R at the start too. You do need to wander L and R a bit in parts but you DO also need to move to the L at the start and stay low while traversing L. Quite a nice climb. I actually feel bad now that I spoke so badly of it before :-(

Good climb. Would be good to retry it more cleanly next time.
	18	★★ Terrathea - with Amy, Kellie, Zach	Trad 20m		Ben Dickson
Second attempt, got past pumpy beginning this time, and rest of climb is good. Beginning is more sequencey than it first looked, much unhelpful chalk
	22	★★ Terra Incognita - with Amy, Kellie, Zach	Sport 20m		Ben Dickson
Second attempt, still nope; move of small left hand crimp near bottom still far too hard

Stepped L a little over 1/2 way up on to the wall to the L but it's still valid I think...Certainly did it better than last time, but still hard for me...
