20 | ★★★ The Phoenix - with Will Vidler | 45m | ★★★ Classic | |||
A great adventure to do on my birthday! A grade 20 crack for my 20th year! The finger locks are so bomber, and the gear is so good, plenty of footholds so there was no akward thin crack foot jamming. Just an excellent morning all round!

Great Warm up route with some fun moves!
|

24 | ★★★ Thunder Birds Are Go - with Will Vidler | 25m, 9 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Again I stole some beta from the guys and managed the flash! Pretty stoked, super fun climb with some burly sections in the first half!
|
||||||
24 | ★★★ Offender Of The Faith - with Will Vidler | 30m, 10 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Stole some beta and cruised up! Didn't really get pumped and felt super solid the whole way! Such a classic route that takes an awesome line!! Nice 24 for my first flash of the grade
|
||||||
Fri 19th Jan 2018 - Cape Raoul | ||||||
18 | ★★ Jihad - with Will Vidler | 30m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Didn't climb the split, instead climbed the face just left of the split then stepped left when the judge started, was super enjoyable getting into the jugs up high and cruising to the top!
|
||||||
8 | ★★ Route from Wedding Cake to Cape - with Will Vidler | 300m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Suuuper fun scrambling across the wedding cake and then climbing through the chimneys on the stegosaurus traverse! Much simpler and less stressful than expected!
|
||||||
22 |
★★★ Pole Dancer
- with
Will Vidler
| 55m, 12 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
For the second time this trip I'm going to say, maybe the best pitch of my life! Such a shame my foot slipped while waiting for the rope to be sorted out after it was thrown into a very large mess by the wind! So I slipped at like the first bolt so it was basically an onsight?
|
||||||
21 | ★★★ Disaster Master-Pole Axed Linkup - with Will Vidler | 45m, 6 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Not as good as pole dancer, and because we linked it from the ground, rope drag was a serious issue, clipping the draws on the upper section was like doing max weight bicep curls and became the crux of the route! Still a lot of fun and nice and exposed climbing above the seal colony 100m below!!
|
||||||
18 | ★ Rain Of Terror - with Will Vidler | 30m | Average | |||
First pitch of the day, pretty good but also quite chossy
|
||||||
Tue 16th Jan 2018 - Fortescue Bay | ||||||
The Totem Pole | ||||||
24 | ★★★ Deep Play - with Will Vidler | 20m, 6 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Unbelievable adventure! Was pretty intimidated rapping in and swinging across (which I nailed second shot) luckily nothing was too wet until just as I was setting off and a very big wave came and drenched everything. A 0.5 cam off the belay is key to not splashing into the raging sea below. So stoked on the onsight!!!!
|
||||||
Mon 15th Jan 2018 - Fortescue Bay | ||||||
The Moai | ||||||
22 | ★★★ Blunt instrument/Burning spear P2 Link-Up - with Will Vidler | 35m, 8 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Got flashpumped on my first shot and forgot how to climb.... took a whip and sent it easily second go! So much fun climbing on the tower and good that it isn't just in a crazy position, it's a great route too!
|
||||||
18 | ★★★ Sacred Site - with Will Vidler | 30m, 2 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Decided to brace the gale force winds for one more ascent of the tower! Super fun cruising up the back!!

Mon 8th Jan 2018 - Ben Lomond | ||||||
Northern Escarpment Robin's Buttress | ||||||
17 | ★★★ Barbe Di Vendetta - with Will Vidler | 90m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Hardest 17 i have ever climbed, the first pitch being just off hands and not quite fist made it super desperate and quite tricky! Second pitch was a bit spicy climbing the choss arête with the ledge and gear well below. Third pitch had another desperate start and a scary mega choss section to finish! Nice to finally top out the ben!

19 | ★★★ Ramadan - with Will Vidler | 80m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||

|
||||||
18 | ★★★ Rajah - with Will Vidler, Nathanael Hinton | 80m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
the best hand crack!! So clean and not too hand destroying! Didn't have enough number 3s so the climbing after the first ledge was pretty sketchy until I could squeeze in the number 4 (first pitch only)

21 | ★★★ Pathos - with Will Vidler | 28m | ★★★ Classic | |||
