Ascents in Oceania by Ranger Dave

Feeling like this is more of a V2, especially as TLWTDI is considered a V3

An excellent problem! Really fun to work the bare looking nose. Don't cop out and finish left - it's all too easy then

A surprising challenge moving from the overhang to the face. A bit chossy underneath but with enjoy traffic it should clean up alright Good bouldering!

awesome moves with some excellent holds. The crux is exhilarating

Some really fun problem solving for this one. Had to channel a lot of trust into my old shoes

Unlike most routes at the Slabs! I loved the more burly qualities of this route. The lay back on the crimp at the start.

Some more thought provoking moves! A nice change from the slab fest above

I really need to practice jamming. This was a lot harder than it should have been! Stay true to the crack for the full effect

a bit of a warm up!

Argh! didn't read this problem correctly and popped near the top on the onsight

A exceptional problem!

A couple of attempts but I was feeling pretty burnt out. Will have to come back for this solid little traverse

my reach made this a lot easier than it might be for others. Great moves!

An easy leap, but worth doing

an excellent bouldering start makes this worth doing.

A nice slab to start with and then its all easy after that

First time on the sharp end in about 4mths (oh the shame). A surprising route with slab, a bulging section and then a smooth finish. Retreving the draws is a tricky one - Who put the ring bolts so far back?

A super enjoyable traverse. Has a massive array of holds requiring balance, power and some stout dedication through the two crux's. Very Recommended!

A awesome problem! Great moves with excellent holds. A scary topout that moves this prob into the V2 realm.

Quite a thought provoking start with a balancing finish

A nice warm up working the arete

a solid sit start with a committing mantle

Quite a thought provoking start with a balancing finish

a solid sit start with a committing mantle

Some more interesting moves. All about the mantle. A fun problem!

An excellent first move!

An excellent first move!

A nice warm up working the arete

An Amazing problem with a beautiful line. Excellent moves up to the ledge and then a committing and powerful throw out to the left - almost a Dyno but I have long arms

A brilliant problem capped off with a killer topout!

Absolute crag classic! A super amazing Dyno up to the ledge. I love the feeling of sticking this hold, while my whole body flies off the face.

But it didn't end there - a Massive deadpoint and then a heart pounding topout

Dramatic? check it out for your self!

Used this to warm up. some awesome moves along this line, but I'm wondering if it is slightly soft for a V5. Perhaps its my body type

A mantle practice problem. You need to trust your left foot for this one

A fun corner with a reachy move to the finish

A nice traversing overhang. Sustained V3

A distant vision? This problem has an awesome campus! Sweet twist from the right to the left. I will need to come back when I'm not so burnt out

The lichen could use some traffic. Good sit start with some hidden holds. Again more thought provoking mantles!

hahah this took me a few attempts to stick the nose. A really satisfying lunge! a very enjoyable problem

An enjoyable arete problem. There is a moment of though at the top of the arete before finding a huge letterbox. Very nice warm up

This start had be stumped for a little while. A tricky tension based step up before reaching the bottom edge of the slab section

a bit of a grunt from the sit start up to a balancing section. a committing mantle!

A awesome project! The crux felt really hard when only the vertical grooves are in. Some interesting climbing!

Some steep moves. Really reachy and then you hit the two finger pocket.... ack! V5 or greater?

I have the whole start figured now - so Its time to man up to the insane overhanging topout

This dyno is pure joy! a problem in itself - just need to bare my chest hair to get the top out done!

Quite a solid, powerful start followed by more of a V2 highball. Used a undercling to FA the original problem, But alas it was broken off. I will have to go back and get the new start using that gross finger pocket

A really fun problem with some excellent holds, a interesting start and cool topout. Challenging for a V3. Nice work Geoff

Such a enjoyable line. Really good moves up to the sharp ledge. Had to clean a LOT of choss and now the rock is beautiful. Separately finished the top, now to link it

Very Good Geoffro! A Really Fun, Powerful problem with all the satisfying parts of a overhanging traverse that is caped with a fun topout. Excellent!

May be one of the more loved problems here. An AMAZING Dyno that will really test your reach, followed by a super long lung to the left. C omitting, powerful and all together addictive

Needs some cleaning. Other wise its a good warm up with a topout much like the rest of the cliff - smooth

quite a pumpy start, could be more of a V2. Short and sweet

Another technical, yet burly start. plenty of holds in all the right places.

A really fun problem from the pumpy, overhanging start to the crimping finish

Awesome problem! Super pumped to get this one. A really amazing throw to the sloping pinch

It took a few attempts to grunt my way through this one. Powerful and slightly desperate

definitely has potential!

I really enjoyed this sit start. From crimps to a solid prow. nice moves traversing left, with a thought provoking topout
