Main Crag
20 Bundy's been bolting - with Andrew Stevenson Sport 15m, 6 Good
A nice climb with a couple of tricky moves towards the anchor.

 
19 Vitez - with Andrew Stevenson Trad 25m Very Good
This is a great route. A bit of a struggle up the first bit of the crack where it is wide but then it gets easier towards the bolt. The rest of the crack is good fun with plenty of rests. Then a fun engaging finish up the flake.

 
21 The Dynamic Duo - with Andrew Stevenson Sport 18m Very Good
Really nice climbing.

 
20 Layback Crack - with Andrew Stevenson Sport 12m Very Good
Nice varied climb. A little tricky at the start up the crack and then a move onto the arete that is easier than it first seems.

Repeat, Amazing climb, I forgot how good this climb was.

 
18 Buffalo Bum - with Jack Trad 18m Very Good
Really good hand crack but the start is hard, probably closer to 20. The other tricky section is where it gets a bit wide for a wile in the middle.

 
20 Wench in a Trench - with Jack Mixed trad 18m, 2 Very Good
What was I thinking picking an offwidth as a warm up climb before 9am and before I had coffee. I wanted a fight today and this climb gave it to me. 3 very distinct sections, the first 2 are offwidth using various techniques to make progress and the 3rd is a really nice hand crack. More people should get on this, I love watching others on Offwidths.

 
20 Bundy's been bolting - with Jack Sport 15m, 6 Good
Repeat, Still a nice climb probably a little hard for the grade.

14 14 R Elf Town - with Ben Trad 20m Very Good
I was surprised how good this was. After the high first bolt it was a bit run out with only a suspect cam behind a flake but it climbed really well and the last couple of moves were interesting.

 
18 Liquid Insanity - with Ben Sport 20m, 4 Very Good
Great route, the first move was a bit tall for someone of my height but was just able to get the hold with a jump, after that it was a bit scary to the first high bolt but really good after that.
