Ascents in Thailand having Beta

Difficult blank middle section!

This is bolted and now called "Doing the Bolts" ;-)

Now bolted. I bailed at the forth bolt. It was quite awkward at that point, maybe some off width technique needed.

May 1998

with a few run-outs but super easy climbing

Beautiful crack, very very nice jams

did it after the multi pitch. would be nice to try it again when its not in the sun.

TR (no pro)

top rope

good fun, easy to miss holds on

Attempt.. crazy lean back and side pulling up. No lead for this route as anchored through 'short and easy' anchor. Few guys said that the route is harder than it was a few years ago as it's more polished. 6c maybe?

Nice little route.

cool crimpy route, only top rope tho

good fun on sharp crimps, again only top rope

Awesome climb, one of the best on the island =]

Orange Grampians pockets. I almost fell off.

I'm Slim Shaley yes I'm the real Shaley!

Punchy wall climbing leads you into the womb and out the other side to an unlikely belay! Mind boggling.

A quick add-on pitch just to top out in the huge cave. More like 6c.

Holy shit what an incredible climb! So many good things to say about it. Amazing moves, easy to read, great views, beautiful rock (that's not polished!), well bolted, and just really rewarding. Would do this again in a heartbeat

Such an epic way to wrap up my last day of the trip!! Climbed in 2 parties, hauling up base jumping rig for alex so he could jump from the cave at the top! Stellar climbing on seemingly untouched rock. Took us 2 hours to rap down though, bit of a backclipping mission! Stoke was high!

such a fantastic climb i loved it

boom, this is the one

Sharp rock, it's the only way to the rap station. A great day out!!

So there we were, thinking this was pitch 4 of Circus Oz, a 6B (20). We pass some Swiss guys who are rapping off who thought the same thing, until they got on it. Then they were telling me it was harder than the previous pitch and they had to go bolt to bolt on it. I said that can't be, we're on the right route, you guys don't know what you're on about. Then I launched up the thing. Frickin hell. I end up taking a whipper, then doing the move, and the rest of the pitch cleanly. We find out later it's 7B (25!). Saw the Swiss guys later down on the beach. Oh, how we laughed. Good times.

several bolts are very rusty

Quite a pumpy pitch, with an early crux. Stout!

Best pitch I've ever climbed

Outrageous cauliflower ceiling, with the crux above it!

prob the best pitch i've done in thailand

Fell a 1st bolt, restarted pitch and rest clean. 2 cruxes, 2nd crux at 3/4 height. Nearly came off here too!

4 star climbing! Crux isn't too bad, with a rest before hand.

Can you believe we did a whole afternoon of climbing on the wrong route? A word to the wise, if you want to do Circus Oz, step LEFT onto dark brown rock at the top of the first pitch, don't just blindly launch straight up the orange bulges. Nevertheless we had fun and did the whole route with only one fall.

the most amazing pitch of climbing I've done!

outstanding

Got off route & climbed The Thais second pitch instead of Circus Oz (Thanks Jai).

(Latest guidebook says 7a for this pitch) ... so when I got to the top of the first, I set up TR for Maria and co, after which Igor climbed to the top where I was with relative ease. He was up and ready straight away to lead the second pitch, and as he started, the other guys started TR'ing the first pitch, knocking the rope I was belaying Igor from off the ledge, which lead to the crappiest belaying I've ever done...Sorry Igor! After that, panic made me climb both cruxes clean... Incredible!!!!

... so when we got to the second belay, we were very seriously thinking about bailing, but being at the base of what people call the "best pitch ever", was the only thing that made me swallow my fear and try and lead it. Best decision ever! Scary and balancy at first, then it becomes a true classic- has got it all, you name it! Feet came loose on the overhang, I was having so much fun! Got past both cruxes onsight, and actually pumped out with the victory jug in my hand- one fall! Classic!!!!

Really scared leading this pitch due to being new at multipitching. Had to sit on the rope and work out the bottom section, but once past that it was pretty straight forward

Was exhausted seconding this after not being able to figure out the start for ages. Excellent climbing

6b+ / 6c+ / 7a+ / 7b / 6a+ Samen met Jaap

Harder than I remember it but got it clean. Pretty exposed crux

Felt a lot easier this trip. Got through all of the juggy section really easily and had plenty left for the top crux. Got rained out for pitch 4 so had to come down
