29 Serpentine Mixed trad 75m, 11 Mega Classic
Shot 11 - I finally got it! I can't friggin believe it! Also this was my first time actually pulling over the lip and standing on top - I was always saving that for when I got it clean... because I knew what had to come next. This time I stood on top and screamed my elation across the valley, asked for 2m of extra slack and... "I'm gonna jump!". There was a funny moment with one foot stepping on mid-air and my weight just PAST the turning back point my brain went "nup I don't want to do this"...

10 Eskimo Nell Trad 130m Mega Classic
Really great route, good to do on a lazy afternoon on a hot day! Pitches can be done quite fast if you link 1 & 2 in the guide book, then the second motors all the way to the start of the cave. Walk through the cave (no need to be tied in), then set an anchor at the far end of the cave and lead all the way to the top out. Basically turns 5 pitches into 3 with a short walk through the cave.
