20 | ★ Yerba | 10m | The Stables | ★ Good | Mon 5th Jan 2004 | |||

20 | ★ Dr Foopsickle | 8m | Blue Mountains | Average | Thu 9th Dec 2004 | |||
i tried this AGES ago and thought it was quite hard for the grade, that was when i was fresh, and the climb became something i walked past every day i was at the glen for almost a year and thought ' yeh i'll do that one day'. after a 2 week climbing trip, at the end of a full day of hard labouring on tony's poperty, and with a belly full of beer, i cruised it first shot this time and thought it was soft! go figure?!
