Ascents in The Junkyard Cave

Got too pumped right before the anchors

I can finally tick this one off my to do list. Will come back for the 26 extension.

Placing the draws and remembering the moves

My most efficient attempt with moves flowing, but messed up when clipping the anchor and ended falling

Finally got this, BIG TICK. Honestly wasn't expecting sending it today since last time I came to this crag it seemed impossible Managed to clip the anchor even after messing up again, but this time held it and finished lol Awesome climb

Second go, an almost lie-down rest can be found in the bulge section.

Smooth warm up. By far my best effort of the day. All went downhill from there lol

Bouldery, got spanked! Did this bolt to bolt lol

Pretty good route!! Steep and punchy. Intimidating lead.. As you really dont want to mess up while clipping cos you'll probably hit a ledge.

Really cool 24. With a hard punchy finish. Was exausted by this time and just pulled on the rope (seconding) to get to anchors.

Fun little warm up.

Had a good play on it but couldn’t read the move to the last bolt and had a sit. Will definitely be back for this.

Fun to work on my anti-style: roof and mantle. Will come back with brush.

Spooked a poor pheasant from it's egg nest a handful of times while I complained up this technical and steep route at the grade.

Super happy to get the send, milked every rest!! Second burn today third in total 😁

Nice juggy roof traverse with a punchy finish

I can only assume this improves with better conditions, the lower half was a spooge fest today, may need to wait for next year but i'm keen to come back!

Another project for the list. Challenge will be clipping the second bolt in the roof and then keeping tension to get to the jugs, one to work on. The whole thing stayed dry too!

Not quite the warmup we hoped for but a cool sequence off the ledge (no need to follow the graffiti suggestion), one to come back for....and that set the tone for the day.

First sequence is good and technical. Then it’s mostly fun on jugs till a rest... a little too good.

Looking for a warm up; not a good idea.

One go. Long, but individual moves are not too hard. Fantastic dynamism in the extension. Lots of hand-traverse before. Would need to find the right rests.

First proper go at the mantle on top was all technique and elegance. Of course I did it beached whale style on the actual send 😣

Good holds the whole way but pumpy

Nice warm-up.

3 or 4 goes. Did quite different beta to last year, more dynamic, was fun

A small go

Bit worried about getting hit by a car on the topout

The first couple of moves could qualify as a three star boulder problem in itself. The middle bulge ruins the climb in my opinion as the end is also quite fantastic in its own right.
