22 | ★★★ Pole Dancer | 40m, 12 | Cape Raoul | ★★★ Mega Classic | Sat 1st Oct 2005 | |||
Wow! 50m above seal colony at the end of the earth. And the climb was every bit as good as the location! Very clean rock. Not enough time for both of us to lead.

22 | ★★★ Drury Line - with Janet, shirley | 25m, 5 | Lowdina | ★★★ Classic | Sat 29th Jul 2023 | |||
Awesome moves the whole way. Crimp fell off in middle of getting around 1st roof, now hold is bigger but less positive. There must be an easier way to do the first roof part if it's 22!
|
||||||||
25 | ★★★ Rosy Pink Cadillac DF | 20m, 3 | Mount Wellington | ★★★ Classic | Fri 16th May 2014 | |||
Was too tired after Savage Journey. Awesome effort by Alex to onsight the 23, going around the crux on the 25 because it was soaked.
|
||||||||
23 | ★★ Lumbar Cruncher - with Deano, Alice | 23m, 3 | Lowdina | ★ Good | Sat 2nd Sep 2023 | |||
Thought I was on the 'unescapable' direct version, but apparently I accidentally followed the logical line and escaped. Not great, but hard moves and good for a pump.

18 | ★★★ Sacred Site | 30m, 2 | Fortescue Bay | ★★★ Classic | Fri 9th Mar 2012 | |||
Was always relaxing before, but a slightly different story with a big easterly swell covering the platform with wash and spray. Intense!

great, could have been better if it wasn't totally covered in chalk though. a bit easy for 18.

|
||||||||
16 | Exit route | 60m | Fortescue Bay | ★ Good | Fri 9th Mar 2012 | |||
Did a bit of a variant since Nads cruised up Sacred Site. After the first step, climb the thin flake 3m to the right of the chimney, continuing up the face above. Pretty nice!

|

21 | ★★★ Left Out - with Jed Parkes, anna | 30m | Mount Wellington | ★★★ Classic | Tue 19th Feb 2019 | |||
Great climbing and nice lead by Anna. Several cruxy moves, but lots of good rests and heaps of gear. Need to lead this when I get back.
|
||||||||
19 | ★ One Way to the Moon - with Jed Parkes, anna | 40m | Mount Wellington | ★ Good | Tue 19th Feb 2019 | |||
Definitely a lot of loose rock in the upper half, and a little contrived, but only really needed to touch one loose rock. Some nice moves, and good small gear.
|
||||||||
19 | ★ Ethnic Cornflake - with deano | 30m | Mount Wellington | ★ Good | Tue 24th Dec 2019 | |||
Something new for Deano. Filthy, but actually quite good. Pity about the ledge part way, else it'd be pretty pumpy.
|
||||||||
15 | ★ Smileshine - with Mike Hitchcock, pete | 30m | Cape Raoul | ★ Good | Sat 21st Nov 2020 | |||
Very pleasant easy climbing,but be careful of loose rocks on ledges at top!

18 | ★★ Virgin Boys | 11m | Mount Wellington | ★★ Very Good | Mon 8th Nov 2004 | |||
great, or would have been a nice lead if i could have held onto the rock for 3 seconds without my hands freezing. wait until after 7am to climb this one

22 | 32 Penguins Variant | 20m | Kempton Quoin | Crap | Sun 3rd Aug 2003 | |||
Contrived and painful. Stay to the not so chossy line or you're constantly modifying the wall.

14 | ★★ Marlin | 30m | The Furnace / Land's End | ★ Good | Sun 22nd Jan 2012 | |||
With Soren and Dave. Crux move is harder than any move on Dauntless. I'd give it a 15...
|
||||||||
19 | ★★★ Shells of Rheban | 70m | Cape Raoul | ★★★ Mega Classic | Sun 29th Jan 2012 | |||
An amazing pitch! Lost the fight for lead, but was still hard enough on second. Technically no harder than a 19 hand to fist crack, but the most full-on enduro climb I've probably done.
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Lactos | 20m | Mount Wellington | ★ Good | 2008 | |||
With Al, a bit muddy, but would be really nice if clean
|
||||||||
19 | ★ Just a Little Bit Longer | Mount Wellington | ★ Good | Sat 4th Feb 2012 | ||||
With Dave. One huge boulder 8m from the top just waiting to go. Maybe when there are a few less people to squish though...
|
||||||||
18 | ★★ Built like a donkey - with Deano | 22m | Mount Wellington | ★ Good | Thu 27th Dec 2012 | |||
Really nice, just a couple of loose rocks detract a bit. Definitely deserves a star.
|
||||||||
17 | ★ Deano's new climb - with Deano | 20m | Mount Wellington | ★ Good | Thu 27th Dec 2012 | |||
Looks like it has lots of ledges, but doesn't, and climbs really well with fun moves. Had to resort to using my first hand-stack!
|
||||||||
20 | ★★★ Resurrection Shuffle | 30m | Mount Wellington | ★★★ Classic | Wed 26th Dec 2012 | |||
Bugger me. Perfect re-introduction to crack climbing! Definitely wasn't keen to do another route by the time I reached the top...

18 | Quine - with Deano, Alice | 18m | Lowdina | Don't Bother | Sat 2nd Sep 2023 | |||
Very sharp, several loose blocks.

21 | ★★★ Holiday in Cambodia - with Alice | 35m | Mount Wellington | ★★★ Classic | Thu 1st Feb 2024 | |||
Climbed it better than a few months ago, but still got pumped. Alice got the onsight.

loose at the start but generally solid rock after. start of second pitch 'interesting'
