Favourite climb of the day, a bit more techy in the middle. Had a foot slip and just muscled through it with a boulder bro moment.

Physically not hard but there are a lot of thin moves above small gear. Gear is good but not plentiful. Take small cams.

The guide described this route as a dangerous pile of choss. Climbed it with Phil (who did the FA in the early 80's and was a bit nervous about my plan to clean the loose rock) tony and Al. It was fairly choss free, steep and stout. Pumped out getting into the overhanging sentry box and took a whip. Pigs arse grade 16! Either needs an upgrade or I need to learn to jam (or use some sort or technique).

Fun climbing. A little weird up the bolted section but not too bad. Then really fun rock afterwards with lots of variety. Really good protection for most of the way up. Didn't feel like an 18 after the bolts, almost forgot to place gear it was such a breeze.

I think 19 is about right. Or old school 18. Pretty good, a couple of hollow sounding flakes near the bottom but it’s pretty straightforward climbing there. Never felt unhappy with any of the gear.

Wow, I've never tried so hard in my life. so thrutchy and desperate, I almost fell out a million times. Direct through the steep crack, so pumpy with some incredibly awkward moves in the pod. really proud, had to fight so so hard.

Absolutely CLASSY well-protected and varied trad climbing. I climbed this as a giant 60m pitch placing 8 bits of pro in total which made it an amazing and speedy warmup with no rope drag. Classic.

Lead the second pitch. Interesting climbing on the first pitch with some tricky sequences. Great jambing on the second until the blocky bit. Accidentally climbed straight past the anchors to the top of the ridge of the buttress and had to downclimb once the others got to the anchors.

Didn't get a chance to enjoy this. At one point, the fiddly pro and cruxy start had me thinking and contemplating the decision making process which led me to this climb. Type 2 fun for sure.

Read an article on thesarvo that suggested this climb being HVS (Hard Very Severe) on the British trad climbing grade scale. Really proud to have done it and having kept my cool throughout.

PS Pitch 2 has some really thoughtful crack moves on it.

Classic and varied climbing. First pitch is thoughtful stemming and face climbing. Second pitch blasting up cracks. Loved every bit of it and deserves the three stars. Climbs much better than it looks from the ground. Led first pitch.

Fantastic. The start seemed hard with stemming and fingercrack, but there's good feet and good gear to allay your fears. Coming round the roof is super fun and the second pitch has some beautiful hand crack. You could combine pitches but I wanted my cams back from pitch 1. Will do again.

First pitch was technical and rewarding down low. Requires small pieces to protect well. Abundant gear after first moves.

Second pitch had some great jamming and quality climbing with abundant protection. Good to double up on micros and your 1s / 2s.

Half ropes were fantastic for the climb.
