My body is bloody, scratched and overall in a lot of pain. Note to self is ankle and arm protection. The middle section of this climb was really enjoyable and engaging jams. The offwidth is something new to me and it took a while to get my groove. I'll definitely come back for it but may need to emotionally prepare myself.

This was the first time I've tried climbing directly between the 3rd and 4th anchor, which feels like the crux to me. This method is better and safer than what I've done previously, which is to go rightwards via a flake (but the fall wouldn't be nice, and it's no easier anyway).

Unreal experience unlike anything else. Nearly got taken out by the swim, beware the rope getting caught on the seaweed stalks if swimming as a second. The climbing was strenuous, with every type of jam being put to use. Coupled with carrying heavy equipment up with you, ascending this thing amounts to a real physical and mental challenge. Props to Rak and John for leading the pitches. As you progress up the quality of the rock deteriorates, and the movement becomes weird, with an awkward chimney squeeze and a platforming traverse out of a videogame. We unfortunately didn't have enough light to complete the 4th pitch, and opted to wait for our friends who were completing The Wick. The return via Tyrolean was surreal, lit only by moonlight and headtorches. We returned to camp at 3am

Exhilarating all the way to the final heave up over the choss. Started a bit too late - would recommend getting up at about 4am (or even earlier if you are as slow as us) but vibes were high. Rap went down without a hitch, and three brave souls nailed the swim and Tyrolean. Don't keep them on belay for the swim, as you risk the chance of short-roping them (sorry Alex) - just hold onto the rope. First pitch involved some incredible sustained stemming and bridging - must have been on my 40m pitch without a ledge rest for about 2 hours. The #6 cam saved me from running out of gear, and I bumped this up for about 10m as I placed some marginal gear. Found a small grassy outcrop and belayed from here, wedged into a crack. There were some dark times on that ledge for the over 2hr belay as Alex Holroyd made a momentous effort on the second 60m pitch, running it out as much as possible. I found the crack to be a second home, as the wind got colder and colder. Finally, the call came down on the walkie-talkie, and I could start moving up. That second pitch was the most intense physical experience of my life, carrying up a backpack and an extra 20kg of weight from the Tyrolean rope that was flying recklessly in the wind back to the mainland. I think I started mildly hallucinating with the effort at one point, as I thrutched up the giant pitch. Had to rest twice while I flicked the stuck Tyrolean rope, but I am proud no falls occured during the actual climbing. Upon reaching the top around 10pm I found Alex Holroyd body-belaying me, backed up on a tree. I had to haul the Tyrolean rope with all my might to unstick it from the crack systems below. We rapped down and joined the other gang, who were just as exhausted as us. Following a flawless Tyrolean, interesting sardine sandwhich and 2hr hike, we made it back to camp. What a fucking journey.

11/10 day out. Did the nudie swim with an eye on the bellowing territorial seals. Hyper real experience floating over to the edge of the continent. I'd love to try pitches 1-2 again without a heavy pack, might have to come back! As epic as I hoped.
