17 The Line of Least Resistance Deep water solo 20m Very Good Sun 9th Dec 2018
Great option for a hot day!! I'll claim this, but I didn't do the whole traverse, I went up where the 22 goes up I think, avoiding the crux of that one I guess...

20 Randy Rabbit Ridge - with Ross Paynter, Charlie Catt
1 20 25 Sport lead by Bruno Alves Buzatto

Some tricky moves, but early in the day, full tank, easy going.

2 20 20 Second lead by Charlie Catt

Awesome lead by Charlie — this in my opinion is definitely the hardest pitch of the day!

3 20 25 Second lead by Ross Paynter

great onsight of the cruxy start by Ross! I'll log a dog cause I came off early, but the rope stretch almost got me back to the belay, so I still felt like a full clean ascent on second. The old man lets the team down I guess it was never going to be a team onsight cause I'd been on this before.

4 18 40 Sport lead by Bruno Alves Buzatto

Bouldery move from the belay, then getting easier and into a stroll... At the end of this is where you can easily end up on the wrong anchors on the left (BBB I think), but if you go around the right of the tree and climb the last bolted block you are heading the right way.

5 17 25 Second lead by Charlie Catt

definitely worth moving the belay up

6 20 Second lead by Charlie Catt

linked with previous pitch

7 18 15 Second lead by Charlie Catt

we asked Charlie to link 5 and 6 and he thought it was a buy 2 get 1 free and linked this one too What a beast – I don't recommend it cause when the leader is doing harder moves in pitch 7 the belayer is super far away managing a lot of rope drag (maybe the drag would have caught a fall?)

8 20 30 Sport lead by Bruno Alves Buzatto

yes, finally, this is the shit!! The traverse is amazing and looks so intimidating. But it's all juggy and with a cave you can rest in at the end (or at least knee bar), so it's pretty easy actually. Moving onto the arete on jugs is also easy if you use the rest well — the boys with me probably considered that aid!

9 17 20 Second lead by Ross Paynter

this is just like BBB, and if anything a tad easier?

10 18 30 Second lead by Ross Paynter

another BBB variant, felt easier but a bit chossier?

11 20 30 Second lead by Charlie Catt

Better than I remembered with a bouldery move at the start of the wall (after the easy slab/scramble) and a fun delicate finish.

Sport 280m, 99 Fri 1st Dec 2023
Coming back with 2 young guns to do a repeat and get my lead on pitch 8, finally! Was worried about weather but we were super lucky with better than the forecast conditions. Felt way more relaxed on every pitch, but came off while seconding the start of P3 — funnily that went clean first try with Tim years ago, even though I was definitely weaker then. Realized I never led that pitch either, so that's the reason to get back on it!

Finally worked out to do this with Daniel — what a day out. Left Schofields at ~4:20am, carpark at 5:20am, walking in from about 5:40am, starting climbing just after 8am, out of the wall by 2pm, back to car at 3pm, or something like that. This time I found the third pitch trickier than I remembered and the 7th pitch not so bad, just long... It was awesome to lead pitch 6th this time though, what a pitch. What a climb! Perfect weather too, chilly but sunny and no wind

Sensational!!! Hard start, so stick-clipping is a good idea! A couple of goes before first clip.

Sport 45m, 13 Very Good Mon 8th Apr 2024
Not what we had planned for today, but the NP tracks closure (due to 150mm of rain the other day) and the 4 stars of this route in the book got us here. Pretty tricky first pitch, and the belay at the top of it is awkward with the 2 old carrots of TGITM and one new ring 1.5m to the right of it. In my opinion the second pitch made it up for it as it is beautiful, long, and can be made easy with some technique. Great scenery too. Well worth it for the second pitch, but I can see how the first one can be loved or hated... I suspect some people move into The End of the Affair too early — you unavoidable get onto this route at the end by following the most obvious line of new ring bolts after P1, so I suggest not moving right too early if you don't have gear!

Came back to do this beauty clean with Em; and also with Jorge and Patricia as a second party just below us It was fantastic this time around, and Em got a big exposure experience, with hang belays and all. The bad bit is that I screwed up the approach — remember to walk DOWN the gully after the first abseil, rather than traverse high (which is actually the walk out after the first 3 real pitches). Also it was cold as hell in the beginning and the fingers were VERY numb. Not again in a cold day in the shade...

Climbed this again to show it to Robin. He wasn't impressed with the rock quality and mantles, but we had fun, and we did it in less than 1h I think!

21 Super Exciting Xylophone - with Emily Hoffmann Trad 25m Good Sun 22nd Jul 2018
Incredible desperate ultra delicate start on minuscule crimps. A couple of falls on the first bolt before cruising up on the third try... The pillar is sensational, I think this would deserve more starts if it wasn't so hard to protect in the middle. Scary, make sure to have mid-size cams and little consideration for your own safety.

21 Medieval Remedies - with Daniel Bush Mixed trad 25m, 4 Very Good Sun 24th Nov 2019
Real nice, but a bit contrived at the crux as there are too many lines up there. I'm not that sure I did the crux without cheating on a neighbour line... I started at GOOT, which was nice.

Ok, the start of this is f*&^ off hard for 20!! Or has a jug gone missing or something?! Really good challenge, but feels harder than Do you Dino (23).

Damn it, I thought I was onsighting a 21, but it turns out it was a 17. PLUS I had already done it, haha... awesome route though, but that start ain't a 17...

This is pretty cool! Lost the onsight because I didn't quite commit to the lip of the flake. Good mental test. The top is cool as well. Well worth doing!
