Awesome new addition to the pass. I'd personally say it's better than BBB, up there with HC. Some incredible, memorable pitches and a brilliant day out. On sighted evens and clean seconded the odds. Pack made the first few 2nds a bit stiff! Note to future climbers: The first few pitches had some chain link bolts and my clean nose Wild Country Helium biners didn't fit through them. Lucky we had some extenders and so threaded the slings through, otherwise we would have been pretty disappointed!

17 19 | ★★ A bit of Everything - with Jonny | 80m | ||||
Hmmm. Got a bit lost and ended up (possibly) putting a variant route up with Jonny. 2nd pitch, start up but traverse right at break at around 4m through heavy choss and terrible gear (lol) to make a bolt and small cam belay a few metres into Thing 2 Pitch 2. Bit of an adventure! Blast up from there as a P3 (20).

Party climbing the 2nd pitch was a blast and laughing a lot as a sleep deprived, exhausted Lucas got totally lost leading the 3rd chimney/roof. F'n brilliant night and highly recommend the experience. P1 - me onsight lead, P2 - Jimmy (me 2nd clean), P3 - Lucas (me 2nd clean). Cheers boys!

Fantastic technical climbing. All pitches have their interest, pitch two totally kickass climbing, was gutted to fumble the feet and fall at the crux. Managed to complete from there though clean. Watch the rock quality (the classic blueys fake ironstone crumbly black jugs) at the top right of pitch 3 - finished the climb to anchors but went straight up for tree belay, hold snapped, 8-10m whipper easy! Haha. Exciting. P1 - me, onsight P2 - Phil, onsight P3 me, taking the onsight on that! Haha.
