I'd say the crux is around a v5/6 at harveys marbles so 26 seems right as it's so short, think a boulder grade would be more suited. Sharp rock on skin! Rad spot. Totally potential for a hard direct line out from the roof!

Spectacularly messed up that first pitch (18) and lost the onsite. Though, made my poor partner walk back down after and belay me again. No issues the 2nd time. Some great technical slabbyness

Beautiful morning to cap off the nqld trip. Felt lovely to get in the zone on these 40m slab pitches then bask in the amazing bay views at the belay stations. Rivalling bare rock for nicest approach, the creek was running so we got barefoot and shuffled along. Bootied a big brekky at the elliot springs bp which was enough for both of us to eat as lunch while we had a shallow skinny dip in the creek.

By far my favourite climb of the day. Again failed to have a bad time today with the tville guys jack and byron despite being taken to a cave (queue gasp from marty and will). There was a few routes i distinctly disliked but i was psyched to treat this climb as an onsight and fight through the many moments i felt like giving up and whinging about this being too hard. Starting to feel alot more comfy on sporty moves and took a whip yesterday at bare rock after snapping a crimp! Yimbos and i finally starting to show signs of understanding bolt clipping on the penultimate day of the trip.

My first team solo with the big guy!.. After he racked and roped, then took his harness off 1m up. He threw the rope and harness on the ledge so i chucked my shoes on and followed on. Great movement and no hands photo ops. Abit less stress than trying to clip the second bolt on warlock. Luckily it turned into a very memorable route afterwards. Thumb press in the flake in particular felt cool. Glad we persisted with the day after some very anti-outdoor-climbing-looking weather at the carpark and a shakey ascent of cannonball.

Stuey! This felt like the one to have done if we do only get 1 day here. A mixed bag of styles, 2 crux pitches very different challenges, a whack traverse, a huge and completely unnecessary runout of the entire final pitch by death-wish-yim. Best moment was when the route crossed our fixed rap rope on the second pitch and yim, again wildly runout, finally fiddled some gear in and accidentally clipped the fixed line in.
