16 Ringo's Revenge Sport 10m, 2 Good
fun, with lots of holds on the wall or in the crack. the carrots are solid, considering how back the rest of them are on this wall. Worth doing again (free, eh Brendon?)

 
23 Doggie's Dinner Sport 10m Good
More of a 21. lots of cleaning required. but some really good moves. heaps of balance and smears! I'll have to get back on this some time and do it clean

 
18 Z Trad 10m Classic
Super awesome crack! definitely my favorite on this wall! great moves. laybacks of joy!

 
16 Practice Your Mantle Part 4 Top rope 10m Good
Nice moves all the way! Balancey and solid for a 16. Good mantle at the end inspired be to throw in a heel hook just for kicks

 
Tue 18th Dec 2012 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd The Dam Cliffs Gulf War Wall
22 Sister Rosa Sport 18m, 8 Very Good

Tue 18th Dec 2012 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd The Dam Cliffs Creek Boulder
18 Waterfalling Sport 15m Classic
An absolutely fantastic climb! Amazing Iron ledges, super fun lay backs. quirky and rewarding

 
17 19 Enviro Vandal (The Sounds of Water) Sport 12m, 6 Good
Fun start to the day. A bit chossy - needs more traffic. Holds are solid, though they don't look it. keep an eye out for the third bolt as its a bit hidden!

 
19 Enviro Vandal Sport 12m, 6 Good
Super Fun Iron Ledges!

V1 Shin Splints and Shit sits Boulder 3m Average
Can potential be harder is you don't look for the goods

 
V4 Grunt Grunt (Project 1) Boulder 3m
Ugh! solid start. Its definitely hard to under cling when you have no foot holds!

 
V2 Wasp Guts, Yummy, Yummy Boulder 3m Very Good
Awesome moves!

 
V2 Buff Chicks in Spandex Boulder 3m Good
I swear some of the rowing girls had arms bigger than mine. great start with a crimpy finish - I'd go it again!

 
V3 Smooth Water (Project 2) Boulder 3m Very Good
What a solid, fun start! that first left hand reach is surprisingly good. I just have to stick the moves after that. I'll be back for this one!

 
V4 Figged Beyond Belief Boulder 4m Classic
Definitely a favorite! powerful start and plenty of options to move the body weight around. argh! the arms were tired during this one. satisfying finish

 
V3 Fruit Fetish Boulder 3m Very Good
Not bad at all! its tempting to get out of the heel hooks early (I used 3??) but I stuck with it and it payed off

 
V3 Super 8 Traverse Boulder 6m Very Good
Dogged the start a bit - solid crimpers as you lean over the bulge. a great mix of holds and foot work required. Was tempted to stay low and throw up a heel hook but instead powered on. Tired!

V5 Dislocation Station Boulder 5m Very Good
Always popping off the last move. Guess a static dyno will do that to you. Reachy and power required. Feeling V6+

Peeking Patch
V3 Coal Train Blues Boulder 5m Very Good
A bit of cleaning up top opened up an easier top out

 
V6 Pockets of Power (Project 3) Boulder 4m Mega Classic
Wow! I think this might be V6+. The crux is powerful, reachy, and packed with sweet rewards - if i can Stick it! more gardening up top makes for a nicer end

 
V3 Saved By Ents Boulder 4m
dropping grades like flies - More of a V3 than a V4. Satisfying sloping side pull

 
Tue 20th Nov 2012 - Iron Cove
Industrial Revolution
V1 Gold Rush Boulder 3m Good
All the holds at there waiting for you! Cruxy at the start

 
V4 Molten Metal Boulder 3m Good
Really Pumpy! Solid start with some grunting required! the climb chills out a fair bit but still asks for some thought

 
V3 Industry over Ecology Boulder 3m Very Good
A lovely climb with some great thought provoking moves in the middle! This has it all - Power in the start and some slab like tenderness!

 
V2 Pure Locomotion Boulder 3m Classic
FFA. One of the most satisfying dynos to date! a absolute pleasure to stick and very worthy of re climbs!

 
V1 Progress Forward Boulder 4m Good
Not bad for a warm up. Can also be done via a standing direct start

Bridgewater Park
V1 V2 Harros Halfway Hammering Boulder 14m
V1 Horro's Down But Not Dirty Boulder 6m
Good to stay low!

 
V1 Harros Quick Finish Boulder 3m
A good lesson not to get to cocky - V1... easy, right? It didn't stop me popping off as I went around the corner (great moves!), lucky I landed ok on the stairs

 
V1 Harros Quick Finish Boulder 3m
Got ya!

 
V4 Harros Horrendous Horizontal Hammering Boulder 20m Very Good
WOW! what a solid traverse. You have to battle with some sand and dodgy holds, but this is super worth it! Good rests when you need them and a nice array of moves.

18 Manic Sport 17m, 4 Very Good
A year and a half between drinks on this climb - Why oh why did I wait to so to come back. Awesome slab, balance and crimp!

 
18 C Sport 8m Very Good
Sweet pump of joy! great overhang, excellent moves but super annoying, dodgy anchor!

I want more!

V0- Practice Your Mantle Part 3 Boulder 2m
V0 Perfect Flake Boulder 3m Good
V2 Tales of Choss and Chunder Boulder 4m Good
You have to overlook the choss on this one to really appreciate it. Worth doing once, especially to gaze with awe at the great highball potential up the side of the cave!

 
V2 Grasping For The Wind Boulder 4m Very Good
seek out the left hand slap - its goooood

 
V0 V1 Practice Your Mantle Part 2 Boulder 4m

West Face
16 Short Legs Sport 12m, 4 Very Good
Bam! Nailed it. Passed my Lead Assessment with an Onsight! of course it was a 16, with massive jugs - but a fun climb is a fun climb!

worth doing for sure!

 
17 Space Trucken Sport 10m, 4 Very Good
Nice warm up for my Lead assessment! Awesome move after the first bolt. I'd come back and lead this for sure next time

V2 The Half Neilson Boulder 3m
V2 The Half Neilson Direct Boulder 2m Good
This is a 'Heely' good problem, with a few different options. Nice pump with satisfying holds

 
V2 V1/2 Gazzoni Boulder 2m Very Good
Enjoyed this one. Potential for Dyno. Will be a harder climb if you don't have long arms

 
V0 The Whizzer Boulder 3m Average
Great first move

 
V2 The Neilson Boulder 5m Good
Solid pump with many options. Some good moves. I'll have to get it next time as there was too much to develop this time around

 
Sun 28th Oct 2012 - Blues Point
Life Aquatic Wall
V5 Dislocation Station Boulder 5m Very Good
So close! Am now getting both my hands onto the last hold, thanks to Brendon and his keen eye. I can see the end of this epic, though it may be found with pinched nerve and a dodgy hip - Killer full reach!

 
V4 ELAP Boulder 3m Classic
smooth as silk. Wondering if i over graded this...

Need Traffic!!!

Peeking Patch
V4 Coal Train Blues Boulder 5m Very Good
Great Moves, with nice holds right where you need them

 
V7 No Hard Feelings (Project 1) Boulder 5m
Got the starting move worked, but there wasn't much skin on the fingers to keep trying

 
Open Project 3 (Project 2) Boulder 5m
Reachy start off solid crimps. Fun project so far.

 
V6 Pockets of Power (Project 3) Boulder 4m Mega Classic
Unlike anything else in the area - 2/3 finger Pockets. Super fun start with powerful moves.

Stuck deciding if my fingers are more important than sticking the knife like iron crimp. Might have to embrace the pain so I can get to the 3rd pocket.

 
V4 V3 Saved By Ents Boulder 4m
Got to the final slap, only to find a pile of dirt. To save myself from the fall, I shook hands with the tree, cleaned the hold and down climbed.

 
V4 Saved By Ents Boulder 4m
Awesome! great slapping action! A sweet array of slap and balance gets you to the final hold - search out the rounded ledge for the goods

 
V3 Tilted Traverse Boulder 6m Good
Overhang and side pulls = goodness

 
Sun 21st Oct 2012 - Blues Point
Kung Fu Captin Wall
V2 Monkey Magic Boulder 3m Classic
V4 Mikes Magic (Project 1) Boulder 3m Good
Tough starting move. The little vertical crimpers have teeth and some serious balance is required to not swing right. A bit neglected compared to the other projects...

 
V4 Bruce Lee Boulder 3m Mega Classic
A pleasure every time! not quite warming up on Bruce Lee, but getting close

 
V1 Piked From The Start Boulder 3m Very Good
Sun 14th Oct 2012 - Blues Point
Life Aquatic Wall
V1 Slap Those Who Stare Boulder 5m Good
V1 Red Cheeked Boulder 5m Good
V4 ELAP Boulder 3m Classic
These moves are so natural now Stoked!

 
V5 Dislocation Station Boulder 5m Very Good
Despite tears and sweat, this climb still evades me. Last move blues for sure!

 
V4 18 Dislocate Then Elevate Top rope 5m Good
Solid highball with good last holds but a mean mind game. The words of my climbing friend rang true - "The hardest moves are mental" the pump and the height can through you off your game with this one if your not careful - If in doubt its top rope eh?

 
Thu 27th Sep 2012 - Blues Point
Kung Fu Captin Wall
V1 Piked From The Start Boulder 3m Very Good
Nice first move

 
V2 Monkey Magic Boulder 3m Classic
Tricky, but with good holds. Technical and satisfying to the core
