	19 ~18	★★ Astronaut - with Michael Champanis 1 16 10m Second lead by Michael Champanis 2 19 25m Trad lead by Fernand Sieber	Trad 35m		Fernand Sieber
Very good. First pitch is defs not 16, more 17 (as in the book) or could even be 18. Just a few difficult moves but small gear on thin crack provides good problem solving. Second pitch is very soft for 19 IMO, more like 18. Big moves over steep terrain on bomber hand jams and huge jugs with great gear. Overall very nice route.

Lower Silvermine Main
	19	★ The Reed Route - with Dale Tristram, Rachel, Walter	Sport 5	★★ Very Good	Fernand Sieber
Logging this one to provide feedback. Bolting could be better, old gear and ground fall potential before 3rd bolt. Besides that, fine climbing, doesn't deserve only a single star in the book, will be very good with some maintenance.
	20 ~20	★★ Snake Tales	Sport	★ Good	Fernand Sieber
Fun, better than it looks. Felt quite easy for the grade, maybe all these trad chimneys are finally paying off!

	20	★★★ Johan's 19 - with Dale 1 19 25 Trad lead by Fernand Sieber Took an intermediate stance at the ledge after the first traverse. Difficult moves, tricky gear and dubious rock on the first section, but it gets much better higher up. 2 20 20 Trad lead by Fernand Sieber Money pitch. Staunch steep start followed by a beautiful sustained dihedral crack with a cruxy end. 3 17 20 Trad lead by Fernand Sieber Another great pitch of old school climbing.	Trad 65m	★★★ Classic	Fernand Sieber
A great route that offers varied and sustained climbing following a beautiful natural line. Don't let the few first meters off the ground on poor rock deter you from the worthy climbing above.
