Good climb extremely run out
	17 17 X	Shootout	Trad 30m	Wolgan Valley	Average	Tony Williams	Fri 11th Mar 2005
bit loose, very dirty, needed some trees, bushes and boulders yank out on the way. Lots of big cams needed. Slinging the big flake before committing to the offwidth is a bit scary!
	17	★★ Sap	Trad 55m	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	@swawrzonek	Sun 15th Sep 2002
First pitch grade 15 only. Geoff second, Bodgan, Monique.

a little odd. avoided crux on 2nd pitch
	17	★ Zoro's Toaster (Zoro'a Toaster)	Trad 28m	Wolgan Valley	★ Good	Tony Williams	Fri 10th Jun 2005

needed a bit of cleaning and gardening and bi cams but pretty exciting thrash up a wide crack.
	17	★★ The Passionate Pilgrims	Trad 85m	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	Nick Kaczorowski	Fri 4th Mar 2005
great! good bolts/gear at cruxes, run p1&2 together if you have 60m ropes.
	17	★ Zoro's Toaster (Zoro'a Toaster)	Trad 28m	Wolgan Valley	★ Good	Iain Duggin	Sun 9th Jan 2005
straight forward but a bit pumpy. Not your average old baldy climb.
	17	★★ The Great Pretender	Mixed trad 22m, 9	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	steven k	Sat 24th Feb 2007
pumpy and some interesting clips. good all around though

	17	★★★ Excalibur	Mixed trad 100m, 1	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Mega Classic	Rod Smith	Sun 29th Nov 2009
Led P1, P2 (equal crux), P4 (equal crux). Carl led P3 and P5 (equal crux).
	17	Wall Route/ Sword of Damocles Combo	Trad 130m	Wolgan Valley	Average	Tony Williams	Sun 29th Feb 2004
Went up Wall route for 2 pitches and kept traversing left to trees. Finished up Sword of Damocles last 2 pitches. Not a lot of gear on big traverse but pretty easy. Beware the loose blocks at top of pitch 3 of Sword of Damocles. Very big and loose and fuckin dangerous to your partner and anyone below!
	17	★★ Sap	Trad 55m	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	David Hinder	Thu 17th Jul 2008
Did variant thing described in 1984 guide. Scary with loose rock. Righthanded finish looks better with more convenient abseils.

Really good I enjoyed this a lot
	17	★★★ Excalibur	Mixed trad 100m, 1	Wolgan Valley	★ Good	Ben Jenga	Fri 23rd Dec 2011
We climbed it as 3 pitchs. Hard at the first steep chossy part.

	17	★★ Sap	Trad 55m	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Simon Ellis	Sun 22nd Jul 2012
P1 only. Great climbing.

	17	★★★ Like Nothing on Earth	Trad 25m	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Marty Doolan	Mon 9th Sep 2013
Beautiful stemming,jamBing and laybacking.
	17	★★ Aquiline	Trad 63m	Wolgan Valley	★ Good	Sam May	Mon 7th Oct 2013
Could baaarely reach the horizontal on tippy toes...up and down to get gear and dithering a lot before committing. Add several grades if you're short. Good climb though, striking line. Rapped off after P1.
	17	★★★ Excalibur	Mixed trad 100m, 1	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	John Drake	Sat 5th Oct 2013
Great classic route, as long as you disregard the vertical sandbox that is the first pitch. Generally easy and enjoyable climbing in a beautiful location. I would take two sets of nuts, one set of medium hexes, and one set of cams up to BD#3.
	17	★★ Sap - with Elly	Trad 55m	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	Matt Short	Sat 12th Oct 2013
Only did the first pitch but it was very good.
	17	★★ Sap	Trad 55m	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Tom Collins	Sat 11th Apr 2015
	17	★★★ Excalibur - with Paul Griffiths	Mixed trad 100m, 1	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Matt Short	Sun 11th Oct 2015
This is an awesome route although pitch 1 is rubbish. Pitch 2 starts with and exciting escape from the cave followed by some nice crack climbing. Pitch 3 had loads of gear but was fairly sustained and vertical for a 15. At this point it started raining pretty hard. While assessing our options to escape down or carry on climbing it cleared up and we decided to push on up. The last 2 pitches were fun with both of the cruxes being getting over the slight bulges.
	17	★★ Sap	Trad 55m	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Aaron A	Sun 13th Jun 2010
only did the first pitch (the good part!)

	17	★★★ Excalibur - with Guillaume	Mixed trad 100m, 1	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Alastair McDowell	Mon 25th Jul 2016
A fun linkup on Old Baldy with Secret Swinger to start. Some fun moves through the odd steep section considering the grade!

First pitch only. Really nice for the grade.
	17	★★ Sap	Trad 55m	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	Grechy	Sun 9th Jul 2017
Is very nice yes I like
	17	★★★ Like Nothing on Earth	Trad 25m	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Richard Pattison	Sat 8th Oct 2016
Really good climb, shame it's not longer
	17	★★ Helzapoppin	Trad 45m	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Richard Pattison	Sat 29th Jul 2017
Seriously, there was a snake in the horizontal crack between 2nd & 3rd bolt, I almost fell off while placing a cam & suddenly noticed the shiny brown and yellow pattern. Wow, nice place to hibernate with the afternoon sun - reckon it's a better climber than me too!

	17	★ Zoro's Toaster	Trad 28m	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	Alastair McDowell	Mon 30th Oct 2017
Bring a #3 cam for a placement above the ledge. I slung a dodgy chicken head ; would have better with the cam
	17	★★★ Excalibur - with Mitch, Donald Gibson, Tim Osborne	Mixed trad 100m, 1	Wolgan Valley		Roman	Sun 27th May 2018
Very good!! (think prefer scimitar over this one.. ) The move through the little overhang on p2 might get some excitment. Nice cruizy climbing from there to top. The belay stance for the end of pitch 2 was a bit vague.
	17	★★ Helzapoppin - with Blue Mountains Orangutan	Trad 45m	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Demetrius	Sun 24th Jun 2018
Well this was essentially a sport climb for me, i think i got two cams and a tri-cam in and then relied on the carrots for the rest making for a though provoking and very run out start to the day. I had trouble getting the wires to seat in the first section so wrote of many good placements later on, my inexperience showing i guess, but a fantastic climb and an absolutely stunning view from the top. Sean trailed a 60m rope so we could rap off.
	17	★★ Helzapoppin - with Andrew Stevenson	Trad 45m	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	Matt Short	Mon 25th Jun 2018
The climbing on this route is great, the protection is not as great as the guide makes out. Nuts can often be found in between bolts but they are fiddly and not great.

	17	★ Zoro's Toaster	Trad 28m	Wolgan Valley	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Mon 28th Oct 2019
A couple of #3 s would have been handy. It’s own anchors too.
	17	★★ Helzapoppin	Trad 45m	Wolgan Valley		Scott Butler	Sat 6th Jun 2020
Fantastic route. So much more interesting as a mixed route than it would be if it were bolted as a sport route

	17	★★★ Excalibur - with Tobin Harvey	Mixed trad 100m, 1	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Mega Classic	Maxwell Cullen	Sun 4th Oct 2020
Stunner of a line, stoked to tick this off the list. Feels well stiff for 17, maybe closer to 19 in a few sections but good gear where you need it. Stellar.
	17	Zoser - with james ritchie	Trad 40m	Wolgan Valley	Average	Ben Taylor	Sat 10th Oct 2020
Would probably be ok but needs a good clean.
	17	★★★ Excalibur - with Jenny Gao	Mixed trad 100m, 1	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	james ritchie	Sat 7th Nov 2020
Moves felt more like at least 19. A single set of wires came in handy but not needed. I took a double rack with extra .75, 1 and 2. This was plenty. Did this in three pitches but could be done in 2 if I hadn't accidentally stopped short of the top of pitch 3.

	17	★★ Sap	Trad 55m	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Ally	Mon 12th Apr 2021
First pitch only. Awkward start that’s hard to protect. Once gaining the crack the climb is awesome. Take big gear!
	17	★★★ Excalibur - with Michael Houghton	Mixed trad 100m, 1	Wolgan Valley	★★★ Classic	Sammy Zammit	Tue 27th Apr 2021
Excellent! Stunning and airy with a couple of stiff moves for the grade. Trees at the top are all burnt out – had to anchor off the only solid tree 15m from the edge, so watch your rope length on the last pitch!
