North Sentinel The Crater
24 ~25 Zinger - with Jessica Robinson, Leandro Sultana Sport 20m, 10
Don't let the chossy start deter you, it has a bit of everything in it. Happy to get past the first crux at overhang yet got perplexed at the next crux. Took quite a few goes to work out the very bouldery sequence gatekeeping the vertical finish. Fantastic adventure, felt harder than 24.

Pretty goey! Crack too skinny for hand in many places and smeary feet. Pure crack experience for a few meters! Happy to get a 1 sit on toppie.

 
22 Span Man — 3 attempts Sport 12m, 8 Very Good
Very nice! Great for a warm up being fairly easy until the final crux sequence.

The extension is a fun juggy traverse with a definitive crux guarding the anchor. New high point trying to clip last draw. Got the crux dialed too. Better conditions and I think it will go

Can do the "dyno" statically by pressing with a single finger of each hand off the right hand pocket and the far edge of the left hand slope. Stand up on high right foot. Much easier than V6 with this beta. Fun and commiting

A classic super fun birthday multi covering all the rock types and styles that Fred's has to offer. Every pitch was great with the 5th pitch being my fav. A shame I had a fall on the crux pitch... Just means I have to do it again

The flake looks so good so I had to give it a try as the light faded. Strenuously managed to get the moves past the flake sequence before retreating

Bouldery start leads to easier climbing on good holds

24 ~23 Rampage — 3 attempts - with Byron Ebenestelli, Jessica Robinson, Teagan Sport 20m, 11 Classic
What a fun route! Should have went 2nd go but dropped the final move before anchor. Pretty chill for the grade. Height helps with the final slopey moves

28 Decrepit Dinosaur - with Byron Ebenestelli Sport 25m Classic
Such a cool climb! Worked all the moves up the direct section. Got them all except the move to the "hose pocket". Fun, hard, interesting moves. Dyno is epic!

 
24 Mad Agent - with Byron Ebenestelli Sport 27m, 12 Very Good
Nice to get back on it. Felt much easier than last time. A couple of sits near the top. STOKED Byron snagged the onsight 🤘

25 Angel Dust — 2 attempts - with Jessica Robinson, Byron Ebenestelli, Tegan Sport 15m, 11 Very Good
2 burns. Got through the crux first burn then come off at the end. Got the full send next go. First project and first 25!

 
23 Metalicious - with Jessica Robinson, Byron Ebenestelli, Tegan Sport 15m, 9
Somewhat technical with no definitive crux. Crimpy, sustained and fun. Not the best warm up

Thought I would give it a go again and refresh the crux beta. I remembered I'm too weak

 
24 Coola Sport 15m, 7 Very Good
Got to crux and took a sit because there were no holds remotely closeby

 
24 Coola Sport 15m, 7 Very Good
After some much appreciated beta and one successful link from the crux to the end I went for a send burn. No dice. I'm too weak to do it again.

First crack on the 2nd pitch. Figured out the first crux after a couple of microbeta changes but struggled with 2nd crux moving up after the traverse left onto sharp sidepull. Surprised to get through the rest of the climb without coming off.

21 Midlife Crisis (Midlife Crisis P1) - with Jarrah

Sport 15m Very Good
P1 good fun short route with a nice mixture of balancy and committing moves. P2 After Jarrah blasted through the crux and was on for the send... A hold broke, ejecting him, and gashing his finger in the process. Maybe sending this IS his mid-life crisis 🤔

 
18 Old, Fat and Broken - with Jarrah Sport 23m, 9 Very Good
Quite crimpy and technical for a warm up but it did the job

Onsight attempt ruined by desperately trying to clip the anchors

 
23 Bear Necessities Sport 12m, 7 Very Good
Didn't dyno through the crux this time but still came off at the anchors. Worked final moves to find a nice comfortable stem after getting the jug above the chains

South Sentinel Supernova Wall
24 Mad Agent Sport 27m, 12 Very Good
Powered through the slabby stuff to the undercling before the mantle. Stupidly missed the jug. Completely spent I continued. Clipping the last 2 bolts and the anchor was a mission that lasted a good part of an hour. Took several noteworthy whips fumbling each clip. Superb climb but not great for weak post-christmas slugs who don't train.

Started late with one head torch with the intention of climbing in the dark and expecting lights projecting onto the rock. No lights tonight. Was too dark to continue on the 3rd pitch. Poor Jess would have been seconding essentially blindfolded. Good fun climb with some thought provoking sections. Will return with 2 headtorches for that night time exposure

Tricky indeed! Some bloody cool moves in there and an utterly desperate clip in the steepest part. 3rd from the end I think. Definitely worth trying!
