Wiggled out a broken green alien that someone had left behind.

Started up the crazy traverse of Clean Wholesome..., but wasn't feeling it so did If instead.

Following Michael. Still feeling off.
	19	★★★ Infinity - with Michael	Trad 40m	★★★ Mega Classic
Too long off climbing and half the cams I'm used to made this an exhausting and draining experience. Got a lot of recovery to do!
Sun 2nd Mar 2014 - Kangaroo Point
Right Main Wall
	19	★★ Moonlight Fantasia	Mixed trad 18m, 1	★★★ Classic
Finally got around to leading this, many years on. Might have been good to have a normal small rack, instead of the discards from my last trip...

Mon 17th Jun 2013 - Frog Buttress
West of the access track
	23	★★★ Dangerously Sane	Trad 22m	★★ Very Good
Pretty dodgy rock in places, but lovely climbing. I chickened out left from the stance, couldn't get a decent mastercam in the pocket, and wouldn't have trusted the rock if it had.
	24	★★ Down With His Pants	Mixed trad 20m, 3	★★★ Classic
Put the draws on for Cam, leaving the 2nd bolt clipped. Didn't bother going to the top, lowered off the top bolt. Clean to the jug.

Really good! A bit broken up, but great fun.
	22	★★ Dave Manks Electric Gorilla Direct Start	Trad 10m	★★ Very Good
Worked on top rope a couple of times, better with tape, still feels insecure and hard.
	19 20	★ Trap for Young Players	Trad 11m	★ Good
One hard move, but good to try something different.
Sun 21st Apr 2013 - Frog Buttress
West of the access track
	17	★ If	Trad 30m	★★ Very Good
Thin and funky at the start, particularly with sunscreened hands. Really cool exposed top half.

Mon 1st Oct 2012 - Frog Buttress
East of the access track
	22 21	★★ Venom	Trad 25m	★★ Very Good
Inspired by the recent wide boyz film, had to get my offwidth on and break in the big cams I bought earlier this year. Solid fight, but came out ahead. Two #5 and two #6 cams, and jeans kept it friendly. Utterly exhausting.
	22	★★ Tight Lips and Cold Feet	Trad 20m	★★ Very Good
Followed Pete. Insecure and scary.
	18	★★★ Resurrection Corner	Trad 25m	★★ Very Good
Great warm up. Felt relatively easy.

Sat 25th Aug 2012 - Frog Buttress
West of the access track
	23	★★★ Epic Journey - with Cam	Trad 30m	★★★ Mega Classic
End of the day, felt epic, wasn't pretty, hung on and still got it clean.
	19	★★★ Infinity - with Cam	Trad 40m	★★★ Mega Classic
warm up
	22	★★★ Insomnia - with Cam	Trad 40m	★★★ Mega Classic
Difficulties at the start, thought about bailing, continued on with sweltering expanding painful feet. Turned out to be awesome fun!
Wed 15th Aug 2012 - Frog Buttress
West of the access track
	20	★★★ Piranha - with Cam	Trad 45m	★★★ Classic
Warm up. Slowly slowly. Not really 100% on my climbing game.
	21	★★ I'm a Mop - with Cam	Mixed trad 8m, 1	★★★ Classic
Still loving aretes! Delicate and awesome. Much nicer finish than Cock Corner.
	19	★★ Electronic Flag DS - with Cam	Trad 10m	★★ Very Good
Followed Cam up. Neat climb.
Sat 11th Aug 2012 - Frog Buttress
West of the access track
	22	★★ Bitter and Twisted - with Cam S	Trad 45m	★★★ Classic
What can I say, I love aretes. Really cool bit of climbing to get the heart racing. Also got to watch an enormous (half a car) boulder tumble down 100m away, pretty scary.
	21	★★★ Conquistador - with Cam S	Trad 45m	★★★ Mega Classic
Beautiful, easier than DD.
	20	★★★ Devils Dihedral - with Cam S	Trad 45m	★★★ Mega Classic
Felt hard, stiff warmup for first time back at Frog/on Trad in a while.
Sun 8th Jul 2012 - Frog Buttress
East of the access track
	20	★★ Pollux - with Tom	Trad 23m
Was expecting it to be much harder (after seeing someone resting beforehand), but it was straightforward. Took two 4s and a 5.
	20	★★ Erg - with Sinead	Trad 25m	★★★ Classic
Chris had some trouble and popped a Cam, so I got to warm down on it. Super awesome very fun climb.
	20	★★ Rack and Ruin - with Tom	Trad 40m
Bit tough for a warm up. Bit tough full stop. But good fun, lots of exposure and excitement.
Sat 7th Jul 2012 - Mt Tibrogargan
Shadow Glen
	18	★★ Flame 'n' Sparks - with Tom	Mixed trad 25m, 4	★★ Very Good
Bit slippery after the rain today (and I'm not used to this type of climbing). Need to learn to use feet properly again.
Sat 7th Jul 2012 - Mt Tibrogargan
Desperation Wall
	21	★★ Straight to the Pool Room - with Tom	Trad 30m	★★★ Classic
Really fun. Great gear, then interesting moves past the bolts.
	21	★★ Straight to the Pool Room - with Tom	Trad 30m	★★★ Classic
Getting the gear down after the rain. Luckily wasn't really wet.
Sun 1st Jul 2012 - Frog Buttress
East of the access track
	20	★★★ Rickety Kate	Trad 15m	★★★ Classic
Love this climb. It turned my day upside down, fixing all the high gravity effects suffered earlier.
	16	★ Horse-drawn Zeppelin	Trad 12m	★ Good
Felt hard, harder than the 20s I did today! Strange...
	21	★★ The Stars Look Down	Trad 18m	★★ Very Good
Climbed very slowly, was lacking anything resembling confidence. High gravity day.
	20	★★ Egotistical Pineapple (Egotistical Pinapple)	Trad 14m	★★★ Classic
Great way to end the day.
Sun 17th Jun 2012 - Frog Buttress
East of the access track
	19	★★ Inquisition	Trad 27m	★★★ Classic
Awesome climbing! Leave the #6 in your partner's pack, a #4 and #5 camalot are all you need to protect the wide crack.
	16	★★ Blood, Sweat and Tears	Trad 40m	★★ Very Good
Should have done this years ago. Followed Cam up.
	16	★ Castor	Trad 22m	★★ Very Good
Really quite cool. Rescued a few cams that had walked in, which required hanging around on my own. Think about your rope moving your cams around people.
Sun 2nd Oct 2011 - Girraween
Turtle Rock
	17	★★ Charapace	Mixed trad 28m, 3	★★ Very Good
Soooo cooold, couldn't feel fingers. Otherwise, great. So long as you don't fall.
	18	★★ (Unknown 3)	Trad 8m	★★ Very Good
Short, but firey. In the freezing cold wind, wearing my downie. Got scared and jammed at the top, but no major damage. With Emile

Mega fun! Awesome exposure! Real wanted another #4 C4.
	20	★★★ Short Order	Trad 30m	★★ Very Good
Cam bailed at the start, so I did it. Sustained, not a great warmup.

West of the access track
	15	★ Bad Company	Trad 20m
Easy fun.

Past the second stuck cam of the day, seriously people!

Fun
Mon 13th Jun 2011 - Frog Buttress
East of the access track
	22	★★ Steel Fingers	Trad 40m	★★★ Classic
Varied and slightly adventurous. Great! Two ropes and extenders were a must. Climbed in from the left, skipping the direct start.
	22	★★★ Erg Direct	Trad 25m	★★★ Classic
Absolutely the better way to climb this. I felt solid the whole way.
Sat 11th Jun 2011 - Frog Buttress

Love this climb, nice warm up.
