First try of alpine climbing! What an epic/challenging day! Brittle rock, lots of soloing, but so grateful to have done it. 7hours to get 3/4 of the way along, 3 to get back to Barron pass via a 70m rapp of the needle

	17	★★★ The Chimes of Freedom	Trad 270m	Frenchmans Cap Area	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Sun 2nd Jan 2011
In sleet and rain. Wet cracks. Numb hands. As mountaineering as you can get in OZ

With Jed
	17	★★★ The Chimes of Freedom	Trad 270m	Frenchmans Cap Area	★★★ Classic	topher	Fri 30th Dec 2011
With Jed. Heady traverse!
	17 16	★★ The Sydney Route	Trad 380m	Frenchmans Cap Area	★ Good	topher	Sat 31st Dec 2011
With Jed. Didn't find the chockstone at the end of the first pitch, but good gear at about 40m for a belay. If we were doing the correct 'obvious' line...Good finish
	14	★★ The Sydney Route Direct Start	Trad 62m	Frenchmans Cap Area	★★★ Mega Classic	topher	Sat 31st Dec 2011
With Jed Awesome middle pitches! Even the 'climb the overhanging wall on bad rock' bit was great! Pitch 3 is just plain scary though. No gear until after pulling over the big slimy overhanging, bad rock, all while directly over a big, spiky block... Definitely a route with a bit of character
	5	★★★ The normal route	Trad 100m	Federation Peak	★★★ Classic	Peter Muddle	Thu 29th Dec 2011
unforgettable trip
	5	★★★ The normal route	Trad 100m	Federation Peak	★★★ Classic	Anton Steketee	Sun 25th Dec 2011
Great trip and nice weather today, although I am sure it was getting clear as we were descending. With Cameron and Jono. Must come back with the rack one day.
	17	★★ The North West Face	Trad 330m	Federation Peak	★★★ Mega Classic	Fil Kindblad	Mon 17th Feb 2014
Epic. Adventure climbing in world class wilderness.
	5	★★★ The normal route	Trad 100m	Federation Peak	★★★ Classic	Fil Kindblad	Sun 16th Feb 2014
Very epic for a walking track! Walked up to scope out the descent for the next day climbing.
	12	★★ Moonlight Buttress	Trad 310m	Sentinel Range	★★★ Classic	psmythe	Wed 7th Jan 2015
Stunning position. Some excellent climbing too with only a moderate amount of shrubbery.
	16	★★ Tierry le Fronde - with Rich	Trad 150m	Frenchmans Cap Area	★★ Very Good	David	Tue 20th Jan 2015
Alt leads. Started at the wrong spot. strung 2 & 3 together. found the old piton on pitch 3 (looked like a cadbury flake) and a stuck nut in the crack system to the right of the line proper (poss fall? nasty roof move) Real alpine flavour, 32kg packs, 4 days walking, 2 days of snow, 1 day of climbing weather. Worth every moment!!
	5	★★★ The normal route	Trad 100m	Federation Peak	★★★ Mega Classic	Peter Brookes	Mon 2nd Feb 2015

New Years with the Rasta Rockets! Epic start at 4:30pm to finish overhanging pitch at night to get back at the hut by midnight, and off to Chimes of freedom in the morning

	17	★★★ The Chimes of Freedom	Trad 270m	Frenchmans Cap Area		Alex Mougenot	Thu 17th Dec 2015
(Sorry Gene. Couldn't be bothered with descriptions on my phone!) Brilliant. Just brilliant. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone, not even most people, but I highly recommend it for those with a head for adventure, spaced gear, and exposure! What a route, though. I discovered that a small part of me enjoys the delicacy required when climbing on choss (like the first and last couple pitches.
	19	★★ The Ninth of January	Trad 160m	Frenchmans Cap Area		Alex Mougenot	Sat 19th Dec 2015
Was going to get on The Lorax, but hearing the story of a climbing team who retreated off it the day before put us off. Maybe next year. Did this instead to smash out a shorter one, but ended up taking us longer cos of uncertain routefinding and us being unaware of the scramble-death topout! Pitch 2 was the standout. Bring double ropes! Would've been hell with a single.
	5	★★★ The normal route - with James Mullins	Trad 100m	Federation Peak	★★★ Mega Classic	Philip C	Sat 19th Dec 2015
Just getting there & back is equivalent to doing 12 back to back tough mudders. For 3 days. Not sure what we soloed but it wasn't grade 5 (update: something on the West Face in the 12-14 range!). Good rock, amazing adventure/exposure (unlike anything I've done in Australia to date).
	12	★★ Moonlight Buttress	Trad 310m	Sentinel Range	★★ Very Good	Alexander	Wed 13th Jan 2016
First two pitches are good and fun. First pitch bit tricky start, sunny hot day Guiding to Nigel

Farmhouse Creek approach - swampy dense rainforest and spider webs are the real crux

	18	★★ The North West Face Direct - with Sami	Trad 320m	Federation Peak		Alastair McDowell	Fri 29th Dec 2017
Luckily we had a spare day to climb NW face in consolation prize, no suprise we climbed the wrong start requiring a 30m abseil off tree roots to below Blade ridge to get back on route. Rest of the climb was cruisy, the crux roof pitch had a good bite to it! Sensational views up there! Worth it for the heinous 13hr approach? Find out for yourself!
