Went for a sunrise solo because I happened to be awake early. Must have been a bit tired because some moves felt more commiting then they should have at grade13. Kept the brain under control though so I'd call that a win.

The first two pitches are great, but the final two pitches don't really have much good climbing in my opinion! Not sure if I finished it as intended, I traversed quite a distance right after the left-facing corner, to finish up some lichen-covered jugs, not liking the look of the bulge with protection down below my feet.

Going up to the Oasis for a brilliant shaded belay and snack was excellent. 3 10 22 Trad lead by Callum Brett Awkward start for this pitch if belayed from Oasis. We made it work. First move off the ledge would have been interesting just on the anchor. 4 12 23 Trad lead by Callum Brett Has a pleasant time on this pitch and even got a bonus of seeing some fine gents work the 3 star 17 on the buttress opposite.

lovely little romp up from the campsite! Climbed as described in the guidebook, but linking pitches 3 and 4 to beat the heat. Great variety of movement for the grade with the Oasis offering a lovely spot for morning tea.

Our first Arapiles climb! Felt about the same difficulty as Eskimo Nell. I think I actually preferred this route even though Nell gets the extra star. Fun little hand jammy move on pitch four up the corner was my favourite part.

Was meant to be a quick outing for a rest day morning. Ended up taking several hours and mostly sitting in the cold shivering. Some good climbing, but definitely should not have linked the last two pitches as the rope drag was horrendous.

1st pitch the 13 comes from the last couple of moves before the belay ledge, the rest of the pitch is much easier. The 2nd, 3rd & 4th pitch have exposed sections and you should be very confident at the grades. There is pro where needed

Very cool climb, though the last pitch was harder than the first.

Found this very full on and mentally challenging, felt very exposed. Awesome climb though with lots of interesting features. Contrary to what the guidebook says I found the traverse/bulge to finish not that well protected. Got the ropes stuck on the abseil to the oasis chains. Was only saved from prussiking back up 30m by Mick the free solo-ist. Do not try and pull knotted ropes through that first set of chains.
