First attempt was basically to try and get warm after having a break, 2nd go went well. Definitely lanked one move which I could have climbed nicer. Fun route though

 
26 The Prophecy - with Jess Cotton Sport 18m, 7 Very Good
Kyle Johnson
Tried this about a year ago and couldn't quite get the crux, the whole climb felt much easier. Could only get one try as had to leave but will definitely try it again next time

Breezy climb. I’m still bad at finding holds so probably made it harder than it needed to be.

20 Easy Mill's Climb Sport 18m, 8 Good
Adam Sanders
Needs a clean/more traffic & would be really nice. Enjoyed the onsight, engaging face climbing. Watch the lower off - sharp edges!

 
19 Easy Rock Drop Sport 16m, 7 Average
Adam Sanders
Bit of a dab climb because of the proximity of the opposing face that you can use to bridge out & avoid any difficulties.

Hard crux down low. Easier after that. Can do all the moves, will be hard to link.

Very enjoyable after a shocking first attempt, basically wrapping myself in the rope at the second draw.

Thin cruxy sequence. Very happy with beta for this one. Will go back if I get the chance

Hung the draws. Got so close on second attempt - fell on last move before the easy climbing. Third attempt was too faffy. Beta is super refined now though. Surely next session..

Hung the draws, and then had one burn. Made it to the 5th bolt. If I climb it efficiently it will go fairly easily I suspect.

Bit dirty. Decent crack climbing, would be a grade harder if you couldn't jam.

Solid Benchmark for the grade. Paper thin crux can be avoided but shouldn't be, because It's a great sequence.

26 Baracuda Sport 35m, 13 Very Good

Easily a three-star route if it weren't for the choss. If it sees a bit of traffic it could become a crag classic.

Every bit as good as projection, only more pumpy.

Decent climb out of a choss pile. Should've flashed it but last foothold broke at the very end.

Short and bouldery unlike most other routes here. Make sure you go up directly through the crux to get the full minging experience.

Slopers on schist! Schilopers?!

 
26 Massive Erection Sport 20m, 10 Mega Classic
Ryan Yang
Easily one of the best routes in Queenstown.

Double toe hooking, flying heel hook, the Rose, knee bars, sustained face climbing, semi-spicy run outs. This route really has it all. Unfortunately some key holds were soaking wet today.

 
26 Massive Attack Sport 25m, 10 Don't Bother
Ryan Yang
Easily one of the worst routes in Queenstown.

Maybe not, but the face (choss pile) really shouldn't be bolted. It adds a ton of rope damage and ZERO value to the route. Put an anchor at the lip and it's a fantastic climb.

Awesome climb, with a very tricky crux. It was a close one, but I think it suited me well.

 
24 Hard Rain - with Samuel Malan, Ryan Yang, VillaBot Sport 15m, 6 Good

Really should have onsighted this one, should have charged on and put the draw and clip in from the next hold (jug rather than a crimp). Broke a foothold. Only "good" as the face is easy and dirty, the boulder however was very good (through the roof).

Grant Johnston
So...I actually got lost on this route. Apparently I'm not the only person to ever do so which kind of makes me feel slightly better. I clipped the first 3 or four bolts on a rising traverse and went around the corner (out of sound and sight of belayer) and found myself on a grassy ledge in front of a featured wall. In my mind I imagined that the rising traverse continued so continued up the featured wall looking for the next bolt - up and up and up. Free solo not being my forte it was rather scary for me. I slung a pathetic looking bush continued further up into mossy terrain then very carefully down climbed. I now understand from the guidebook and feedback from Queenstown Climbing Club Facebook Group that I should have walked along the grassy ledge. I presume the next bolt is hidden in the greenery somewhere. There is no fixed hardware anywhere up where I climbed in error. I left a couple of nice slings and biners around a bush up there if anyone is keen for booty.

First pitch in the chimney is brilliant, dusty and dirty but worth it, crux at the top when you exit the chimney. Second pitch is nothing special, just a way to get to the top

The first half to the knee bar rest is awkward and cruxy, second half is sustained and technical! Great route might take a couple more gos to tick
