Viewpoint Buttress | ||||||
17 | ★ Mexicana | 60m | ★★ Very Good | |||
I think this is the route we climbed, headed left at the top of Rocks Of Honey first pitch and up into the nice crack system in the centre of the highest section.
There were a couple of committing scary moves down low with OK gear. the crux might be getting over the bush at half height! |
||||||
16 17 | ★ Rocks Of Honey | 60m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Flaring 3 sided chimney on the first pitch is an excellent, really technical climb that requires a fair bit of thought. Good gear all the way.
Headed left and linked into second pitch of what I think was Mexicana, aesthetic long crack system up the centre of the highest part of the wall. |
||||||
16 15 | ★ Mettiste | 60m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Climbed the first pitch of this with leaning hand crack, then went around the arête on the right up to tree and continued to large ledge up thin corner which might have been second pitch of Rocks Of Honey.
First pitch is great with good gear and hand jams. Second pitch was really good as well what ever it was but scary for the second because the traverse is very hard to protect for the second. |

I thought this would be better given the popularity, the rock is turning back into sand up top! The bolts at the chains are looking pretty ordinary as well, some glue-ins are in order.

15 | ★★ Get Into The Groove - with dave kenny | 50m, 7 | ★★ Very Good | |||
The second pitch is magic and on its own it is a classic, but the first pitch is pretty ordinary. The run outs might freak out new leaders. Could be done with only a set of slings to protect the first pitch (there is no gear other than the trees anyway), just clip the first bolt on P2 and stay attached to the tree to belay.

Harder on the head than the arms, those ledges are ever present. Nice moves though. It would be a great climb if the first three bolts were reshuffled and maybe another added low down.

Embarrassing but I took a big fall trying to clip the 4th bolt on my first attempt. Ended up very close to the ground with my belayer 3m up in the air. Probably should have used the huge jug just above the bolt not the tiny crimp below it...

Excellent climb, bummer you have to climb through the shitty sandy stuff for the first 10m to get to the good stuff. Pretty overhung for a low grade, but all the holds are there, and the rests are where you need them.

17 | ★★ Zeitgeist - with Dan | 110m | ★ Good | |||
Rain held off long enough to get up this. Fun first pitch but the second two are pretty generic. I led pitches 1 and 3, Dan led pitch 2. Skipped many bolts on the third pitch to reduce drag and eliminate backcleaning (otherwise requires about 16 draws).

Finally found out that this is the climb we did ages ago (date guessed). I just saw the decent looking corner on the way to Prometheus and decided to go up that. Thought we were pioneering an epic new route... but really you can do whatever you want on this section of Tibro. Rapped down caves route. Great day out!

Eagle's Nest | ||||||
14 | ★ 2 For Tea | 32m, 9 | ★ Good | |||
A good climb but probably pretty average for the crag. There are a few reachy moves and there is no way that finish on the overhung headwall is a 14, closer to a 17 or so. The second last bot is in a terrible spot leading to some heinous rope drag if you're belaying up a second.

More a test of your head than your arms, 50m is a long way to keep you sh1t together. I almost lost it when I found myself at the crux, 40m off the deck and with a couple of suspect cams 4m below my feet. Staring at three perfect hex placements does not help upward progress when there are no hexes left on your harness. So a few deep breaths and I ran it out to the wide crack where with great relief I jammed in the #3 and dispatched the last few meters. WooooHoooo!

We defied Mother Nature and her rainy ways. She said f u and opened up the skys when I was at the 6th bolt on P1, nothing like leading tibro in the wet! It dried up and pitch two was fantastic.
