Phegans Bay | ||||||
15 | ★★ HS | 15m, 5 | ★ Good | |||
2 laps. 55 days off rock, wrist brace on. Skin hurts, wrist seemed to survive, just avoided mantles.
|
||||||
19 | ★★ Phoenix | 15m, 6 | ★ Good | |||
Felt a bit pumped, not surprising I suppose
|
||||||
15 | ★ Stingray | 15m, 5 | Average | |||
2 laps
|
||||||
20 | ★ B | 15m, 4 | Average | |||

Sat 11th Nov 2023 - Blackwall | ||||||
Kit Kat Wall | ||||||
19 | ★★ Better Breaks than a Kit Kat | 10m, 4 | ★ Good | |||
This always makes me laugh for a 19, like many of that grade here, but it’s a nice climb.
|
||||||
Wed 10th May 2023 - Woy Woy | ||||||
Phegans Bay | ||||||
22 | ★ Putting shame in your game | 10m, 3 | Average | |||
With the proximity of the trees I no longer feel comfortable leading this. Feels contrived, due to how close tree is to cliff
|
||||||
Tue 25th Apr 2023 - Woy Woy | ||||||
Phegans Bay | ||||||
19 | ★ Chips Ahoy | 15m, 5 | Average | |||
Rpt. Despite name I can’t see any chips on this. The tree is a disincentive to lead this one. Best to set anchor before climbing.
|
||||||
20 | ★ B | 15m, 4 | Average | |||
Rpt. One very thin move, needed a good clean.
|
||||||
Sat 14th Jan 2023 - Joll's Bridge | ||||||
Lower cliffline | ||||||
19 | ★★ Bad Luck Silverback | 12m, 1 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Rpt. Totally spoogy. For a lead I think grade 20
|
||||||
21 ~22 | ★★ High Goose Stepping Action — 2 attempts | 18m, 3 | ★ Good | |||
Worthy of rebolt, the carrots and FH are pretty manky, but some good moves. In todays spooge and 100% humidity it felt super hard. Gave horizontals a good clean out first go.

Lake View | ||||||
21 | ★★ Forbes Fortune | 15m | ★ Good | |||

Lower cliffline | ||||||
16 | ★ Chocolate Coated Parents | 12m | ★ Good | |||
Rpt, surprisingly clean today and climbs nicely. I was surprised.
|
||||||
19 | ★★ Bad Luck Silverback | 12m, 1 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Two laps for good measure.
|
||||||
Sat 29th Jan 2022 - Umina | ||||||

19 | ★★ Sharon Stone | 15m, 6 | ★★ Very Good | |||
15 | ★ Stingray | 15m, 5 | Average | |||

21 | ★★ The Climb that was | 18m, 7 | ★ Good | |||
23 | ★★ Sand Man | 25m | ★ Good | |||
I can catch the start move by a fingernail, the rest is ok, but still some long moves, pleased to tick it again though.
|
||||||
21 | ★ Curly | 8m | ★ Good | |||
Short but worthwhile
|
||||||
Sun 13th Sep 2020 - Popran | ||||||
23 | ★ Right ward route ? name | 25m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Still great, but second to third bolt feels sketchy. Long sling on third bolt is nice
|
||||||
21 | ★★★ Rock 'n' Roll Mr Creosote | 25m, 10 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Such a great climb. Snake in pocket to left as usual half way up.
|
||||||
19 | ★★ Little green slugs | 42m | ★ Good | |||
Nice slab
|
||||||
23 | ★ The knights of Ni | 20m | ★ Good | |||
McDougalling left at 4 th bolt climbs ok. Otherwise direct is a hard boulder problem
|
||||||
Mon 27th Jan 2020 - Blackwall | ||||||
Offspring Wall | ||||||
21 | ★ Rumba | 12m, 4 | ★ Good | |||
Rpt. No harder than the 19s on Kit Kat wall. I guess it evens out
|
||||||
23 | ★★ Techtonic | 12m, 7 | ★ Good | |||
Better conditions than a month ago, straight up today, but always find this pumpy.
|
||||||
Mon 27th Jan 2020 - Blackwall | ||||||
Red Head Wall | ||||||
19 | ★★ Suspenders Will Do It | 10m, 4 | ★★ Very Good | |||

Rpt. Remains a tough start
|
||||||
19 | ★★ Better Breaks than a Kit Kat | 10m, 4 | ★ Good | |||
Rpt, still a full throw up high for the short
|
||||||
Fri 26th Apr 2019 - Southern Cousin | ||||||
Limited Options Divinyl's Wall | ||||||
23 | ★★ Pain | 15m, 8 | ★ Good | |||
John was still working up to the FA, crimpy top ok, big move to side pull rather a reach
|
||||||
Sun 10th Mar 2019 - West Gosford | ||||||
Amphitheatre | ||||||
20 | Sanities Edge | 6m, 3 | Average | |||
A bit contrived but delicate slabbing. Don’t use tree
|
||||||
Sun 18th Nov 2018 - West Gosford | ||||||
House Of Praise | ||||||
20 | ★ Open your Eyes | 10m, 2 | Average | |||
The start of this is super hard. Didn’t have trad gear with us
|
||||||
Sat 17th Feb 2018 - West Gosford | ||||||
Rock Soldiers Arete | ||||||
19 | ★ Flares R US | 9m | ★ Good | |||

Good rock
|
||||||
14 | ★ Spiders silk | 10m, 3 | ||||

Interesting moves from cave onto face
|
||||||
Sat 28th Oct 2017 - Blackwall | ||||||
Offspring Wall | ||||||
23 | ★★ Ring Leader | 10m, 4 | ★ Good | |||
Did the 23 version bailing left after trying the direct finish multiple times. Can almost do it direct, a wicked mantle. I was pretty sure Jules did it direct. 25 is reasonable that way I think, very balancy
|
||||||
Sat 7th Oct 2017 - Tascott | ||||||
Tascott Cave Elevated Grey Walls | ||||||
14 | Piece Of Cake | 8m | Average | |||
Presume chimney left of jam practice. About grade 10 if at Monkeyface
|
||||||

Upper cliffline | ||||||
18 | Piggy Grunter | 12m | ★ Good | |||
Pretty sandy but quite nice if treated like an arête and not a offwidth
|
||||||
Sun 13th Dec 2015 - Umina | ||||||
Lake View | ||||||
17 | Blunt arete | 10m | Average | |||
Worthwhile as another route
|
||||||
Sun 8th Nov 2015 - Popran | ||||||
20 | ★★ Monty | 30m | ★ Good | |||
Done this before if it's the route with 1 bolt and finishes on anchors of FC.
|
||||||
Sun 16th Aug 2015 - The Bluffs | ||||||
Right Bluff High Wall | ||||||
20 | ★ Ginger | 23m | ★ Good | |||

||||||

Kingsview Mums New Home | ||||||
22 | ★ Stainless Steal | 15m | ★★ Very Good | |||
22 | ★ Stainless Steal | 15m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Didnt have any cams. Very stout for grade, but actually nice technical moves. Could easily add 2 grades
|
||||||
Sat 6th Jul 2013 - Joll's Bridge | ||||||
Lower cliffline | ||||||
20 | ★★ Woodface Direct | 35m | Average | |||
Followed Paul up this. Top is stil scary off ledge
|
||||||
Wed 10th Aug 2011 - Joll's Bridge | ||||||
Upper cliffline | ||||||
18 | Piggy Grunter | 12m | ★ Good | |||
It was a bit dirty and I had no appropriate cams but oddly fun for an offwidth
|
||||||
Sat 9th Apr 2011 - Joll's Bridge | ||||||
Lower cliffline | ||||||
24 | ★★ Channel Bill Cuckoo | 12m, 5 | ★★ Very Good | |||

|
||||||
20 | ★ Sniffing Dogs | 15m | Average | |||
more rebolting on way
|
||||||
22 | ★ rapunzel let your hair down | 10m, 4 | ★ Good | |||

|
||||||
Sat 12th Mar 2011 - Joll's Bridge | ||||||
Lower cliffline | ||||||
19 | ★ The Block That Was | 15m, 2 | ★ Good | |||
Some very rusty carrots and some very tricky moves. Some new RBs, anchors and double ropes and small gear and it would be a safe lead.
|
||||||
Wed 3rd Nov 2010 - Joll's Bridge | ||||||
Lower cliffline | ||||||
23 | ★★ Big Black Box | 15m, 5 | ★ Good | |||

Tue 22nd Dec 2009 - Joll's Bridge | ||||||
Lower cliffline | ||||||
20 | ★★ La La Land | 23m, 2 | ★ Good | |||

||||||
Sun 20th Sep 2009 - Joll's Bridge | ||||||
Lower cliffline | ||||||
21 ~22 | ★★ High Goose Stepping Action | 18m, 3 | ★ Good | |||

||||||
Wed 25th Feb 2009 - Blackwall | ||||||
Red Head Wall | ||||||
15 | ★★ Grand Canyon | 10m | Average | |||
22 | Big Day Out | 10m | Average | |||

Wed 12th Nov 2008 - Bouddi National Park | ||||||
Wards Hill Black Panther Wall | ||||||
20 | Georges Son | 10m | Average | |||
a retrobolt would be nice
|
||||||
20 | Georges Son | 10m | Average | |||
It could be led on trad, but not safely.
|
||||||
20 | Georges Son | 10m | Average | |||
No way I'm leading it on RPs.
|
||||||

20 | ★ Dungeon to arete | 15m | ★ Good | |||
Interesting moves on less than perfect rock

||||||
20 | Dungeon | 15m | Average | |||
Climb out before the storm hit. Its not Frog.
|
||||||
20 | ★ "gde 18" | 16m | ★ Good | |||
took 6 attempts to start the route. 3 dodgy bash ins and a very old school grade.
|
||||||
Sun 1st Jul 2007 - Joll's Bridge | ||||||
Lower cliffline | ||||||
19 | ★ Texas | 20m, 1 | Don't Bother | |||
this place needs decent bolts, loweroffs, a path in and less chossy rock and no westerlies and it might be good.
|
||||||
Wed 25th Oct 2006 - Point Clare | ||||||
Point Clare Crag | ||||||
20 | ★★ Daves dinner | 12m | ★ Good | |||
started to lead this when noticed empty bolt holes. Thin and rather techy and still a sandbag at 20.
|
||||||
Tue 7th Dec 2004 - Woy Woy | ||||||
Phegans Bay | ||||||
18 | ★ Little Roof Riding Hood | 8m, 3 | ★ Good | |||
