Sat 9th Sep 2017 - Mt Rosea
Main Cliff
17 Heretic Trad 120m Classic
A fantastic outing with committing sections on each of the three middle pitches - P2 when the thin cracks appear on the right wall and you need to move out of the corner, P3 from the ledge up through the crack with the void behind it, and the last 10m of P4 when route-finding becomes difficult. (I ignored the blank, ~1.5m tall corner with the roof and crack above it, and instead traversed right to climb the adjacent face before moving back left into the crack.)

Led pitches 2, 4. Got a bit confused on P2 and started way out left on the slab and traversed back in to the corner. Realised afterwards that it's P3, with the obvious flake, that you're supposed to start left on.

Astonishingly, was almost completely dry despite many other routes on the cliff seeping heavily from previous days' rain.
