Ascents in Wards Hill having Beta

Tricky mantle, with plenty of choss.

Blew the onsight warming up. Cool crimpy climbing. Finger is recovering and feeling stronger.

Rpt. 2x dialed in.

warm Up.

Even with the wet start. Love this.

Had a few cracks at it but needed plenty of rests and catches at the crux,need to get the match sorted. Great climb.

Warm up. Felt horrible!

Rpt

Lovely climb. First of the 23 range. 2 harder moves at start and finnish. Plenty of rest opportunity.

warm Up.

Slip up on the crux leading, forgot the foot sequence. Keen to get lead next climb.

The fellas insisted i give it a shot. Beyond me at this point. Got through a couple of the tough moves, but aid was nessesary.

Warm up. Very average

Wet start! Pulled to the first, couple of pockets and then nice holds to the 6th. Good knee bar rest half way. Few attempts on the last undercling to top out. In range, looking forward to this one.

Fun climb, took me a few goes to send it but got it on last attempt. Great little crag will definitely be back.

Wow. Hard.

Got the moves together but frigging strenuous.

After the Onsight went belly up I was thinking this was a long shot. A bit of beta from Jules and trust in my rubber saw me through the seam start then just hold on to the top. Great routes.

Should of been Onsight but I got strung out on the top slopes and missed the good side pull. Clean it up a shot and a half later. The Start sequence still feels like the crux for me. Such fun climbing.

Went a bit south at the first crux, managed to get back on line and keep it together. Not many holds in the top half, choose wisely.

Full deal warm up, I really liked this one. Tricky start with no chalk on the holds and I really had to work hard to top out.

Harder than it looks.

Bit of toilet paper to absorb the brown gunk at the base and it went. Awesome after the first 2 metres.

Off the Dog list

Still nails down low, done a while back

Fell at top, training day

Training day....

Warm up 3...

So the plan is to tick all 5 routes on this wall in the one session. Bit more fitness. The first to do it gets a 6 pack from anyone in on the syndicate.

So close today. Done a year back.

warm'n up

Still a bit thin,bt felt ok today.

There is a Niko Super Sandbag Variation at around grade 24-25 using the two chalked up mono-pockets because you didn't see the (non-chalked) undercling bellow.

Hmm... Everything else outside of the cave was extremely manky today.

Only just stuck that move.

Short but still fun

End of day itis

Aided up to clip a lock gate on the second draw. Kind of a 3 move boulder problem, arguably harder than V0

2 goes today. Did ok second attempt. Can get to pocket out right, 3/4 up, but the final 2 moves are strung out

After axing myself into the wall no one else wanted to give this nor the 21 to the left a go. Even though once you get to the jugs it's pretty easy, it would feel a lot safer if there was another bolt just below the anchors which u can clip from the first jug to stop the ground fall.
