2 working laps and 2 redpoint burns... new high point and some refinements down low and up high.

Unsent it today.
Echoing Greg Blachon sentiments, "If you can't send a climb twice, you haven't really sent it."

25 | ★★ The Goat Fucker Mega Route — 3 attempts | 15m, 7 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
No goats were harmed during this ascent. 3 shots today.
PS Would love to take it as my first 25 in a session but 25 feels generous if I am being completely honest.

Felt very under-recovered coming in so focused on some refinements. Linked from the crux to the top (2 hangs). Love how everyone I've seen on this climbs it totally differently. Left the draws on (only 1 draw at the anchor FYI).

Did the first 3 bolts up to the side-pull/undercling flake to finish off the warm-up.

25 | ★★ Wipe On Sex Appeal | 12m, 6 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
'Enhanced'. Gave it a shot and I think I settled on some beta that worked for me, challenge will be keeping the pump in order later on (amazing jugs). One lap, save for later (as usual). Pockets were only a little damp.

Good, though had some difficulty summiting the bulge thing with awkward feet placements.
|
|||||||
19 Hard | ★ Leed Lemon | 13m, 5 | ★ Good | ||||
That anchor! What a contrived pain at the end. Got into trouble getting stuck under the roof figuring out how I was unwind myself to reach the anchor, annoying feet to reach this contrived end.
|
|||||||
19 Hard | ★ Dob in a Dumper | 15m, 6 | ★ Good | ||||
Nice, quite varied climbing, anchor is hmm a bit contrived to the left.

21 | ★ Saved by the Belle - with Kane Pham | 12m | |||||
Bit sandy at the bottom and patches of lichen up top but engaging moves through the bulge and mantle make it worthwhile .
|
|||||||
26 | ★★★ Funky Monks — 2 attempts - with Kane Pham | 18m, 10 | |||||
Good link to bolt 4 on first attempt and then spent ages finding beta for the last move of the crux. Settled on using Rf on a small edge below the rail + LF back in crimp slot. Did all moves individually on second go despite being totally wasted.

What a cracker. 1st session. Attempt 1 was a bit demoralising - and getting used to all the slopers down low. Attempt 2 was much better: all the moves go! Found some v efficient side pull beta at the top.
|

Make sure you warm up your right hamstring properly for the high heel hooks! Mine didn't appreciate being treated that way.

In person the rock leaves a lot to be desired. Here’s an actual coordinate (-34.0451703, 150.8719655) hopefully this should get you close. Because the Sydney guidebook and previous location tag will have you and 3 friends experiencing the pleasure of being 150 metres away but with all info saying you are standing infront of it and getting annoyed. But don’t worry the disappointment isn’t over.

V7 | ★ Fantastic Mr Fox - with Kezzadawg, Zac Schofield, Micah Barnes | 3m | |||||
A really nice v3 into a very hard mantle. Got sorta close, but not really. Is there any footage of this boulder? No idea how this makes it into the top 100 in the guide

Had a great deal of trouble getting over the lip of the roof. Found the secret pocket as well, but the jugs over the lip seem much higher than I can easily reach. Not sure if it's a height thing or if I'm having trouble working out the intended beta. Rest of the climb feels like a soft 20/21 slab climb.

Significantly harder if you are short (163cm). I could not reach the pocket after the 2nd bolt and faced with almost 0 other holds to used. If this is not in reach, can't see how this move could be in a climb graded 20.
