Some of the best quality rock in the bungles. we retreated from pitch for after a case of the spookies. you can definetly link 1+2 3+4 from pitch 4 two 60m raps to the round.
Bit of confusion finding the best way in, might update the info at some point once sorted....
Anyway we finally got started and I linked the first 2 pitches without out too much difficulty but a bit of twin rope drag by the end, and unsure if it was the right belay I opted for the bunch of old slings and cam back up to bring Zac up... we moved the belay left and Zac headed up what might have been the correct route if my belay had been the right one, though it seems its the abseil/bail anchor (which is what it looks like...)....
Anyway, Zach ran out far too much rope than he should have for the pitch and I followed finding the climbing a lot harder and more unnerving than expected for the grade if we were on the right route... A difficult to remove piece of gear or two and a crux getting to the belay left me feeling a little shattered... dropping my favourite chalk bag whilst taking my pack off at the belay kinda just topped it off...
So no quite sure where we were and with my chalk bag to retrieve we placed a bomber wire and rapped off... Have worked out since that we must have done the Cameron/Moon gr. 20 variant pitch which probably explains why it felt more difficult than sub 17 climbing ... fair enough I reckon...
Will be back soon to get the wire back, climb to the top and started working on the Classic Triple....
