The crimps felt very, very slick today and i floundered a bit. Felt harder than i remembered.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels — 3 attempts - with gsmizz, Stephanie Levesque, Victor Rodriguez	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Will Gregson	Mon 13th May 2024
Got progressively worse every attempt, first attempt only move that took 2 attempts was the last move. 3rd burn pulled almost every draw. Knee felt fine in the moment but the next day and week felt ever so slightly off, will go again when it's 100%

	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Wall	Mon 1st Jun 2020
Had a couple tries at this and damn, the first crux and the final dyno are not easy. I feel its possible for me to get but difficult at the grade with my height causing me to bunch up massively.

	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Mel JJTN	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tracey Hua	Mon 29th Dec 2014
A little linkage and ripped a massive flapper in the palm of my hand.

Had to pull through the crux move, couldn’t hold the left hand crimp but did all the other moves . Love this long boulder on rope.

Bouldery. Fell at the start a bit, and traverse took a couple gos. Rest felt OK but would be tough to link. Really fun.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Thomas Gissing	Thu 28th Dec 2017
Was feeling good, then had a loud pop in my knee doing the rock over.

This is a punchy little bugger, i loved it! The moves felt very doable on the first play but it got cold and i waited too long. Very keen to get back on this.

Draws on, felt pretty good
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Rob Medlicott	Thu 8th May 2014
Again, 2nd go was hard...may need to have a good crack on the first burn
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Rob Medlicott	Sun 20th Jul 2014
It got heaps cold and reminded me why i don't climb here in the this cold winter
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Rob Medlicott	Sun 17th Aug 2014
Conditions on this route great today, which was weird cause it was the only route in the glen that wasn't wet. First shot was a refresher and still kinda warm up.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Rob Medlicott	Sun 17th Aug 2014
Second shot was quite good. Some new beta and some linkage felt good. Pity its normally soo bloody cold here
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Jason Nguyen, Chris	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Rob Medlicott	Sun 18th Oct 2015
Crux crimps were hideous. Dogged to top and cleaned. I may never do this one
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Fang Hsiang	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Rob Medlicott	Sun 17th Mar 2019
Not a fan of this route. Don’t think i ever will be.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Gwen Shoemaker	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Ro-boat	Mon 1st Feb 2016
Finally that sending breeze! Sent first red point attempt of the day. 4 shots total.

Apart from horrible spooge this will go pretty easily. Nice mini boulder sequences.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Rhys Phillips	Wed 16th Dec 2015
very awkward and thin crux, could do the rest easily
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Peter	Sun 31st Aug 2014
Project shopping after the daily double on loop and madge. Couldn't manage the first crux but the rest felt ok. Nice bouldery stylin
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Peter	Sat 22nd Aug 2015
Worked out the bottom crux now. Tweaked my knee. Not sure ill be rushing back for this any time soon.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Matt King	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Wed 1st Dec 2021
EOD Repeat attempt, not clean today. At first I couldn't fathom how weak Frothy got up this 6 years ago, but then I unlocked the minutiae of the crux beta, and suddenly it all made sense. Still easier than Rubber Lover

	26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Wed 5th Mar 2014
Putting it together. A lot of time trying to figure out the opening crux sequences, and 1 lap to the top to see what the rest of the climb was like. Finally, almost in darkness I unlocked the bottom moves and repeated them to verify it. Now to link it. This could go.

Crimpy! Really cool opening moves from Tsunami. Edit: reading through the other comments - somehow I did it without using any heel beta. I didn't even realise there was heel beta. Kinda glad too as my knee is still very much intact.
	26 ~27	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Cato Todd	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Nick Roach	Tue 27th Dec 2022
Holy fuck that was hard. To me it had a similar difficulty to EIEIO. Harder than all the 27s at Sharon Stone
	25 26	★★ Smoked Mussels	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Nick Cormack	Sun 18th Feb 2007
After hurting my knee on this a few months ago, spent another two days on it, definitely 26.

#2go balancy and powerful.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels — 5 attempts	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Nathan Kenny	Sun 19th Feb 2023
Heel move was definitely the crux for me. Only ever did the move twice. Felt rad on the send

so stoked for this one! Dan belayed and gave me some great beta. the right heel was my fav with the tiny crimps. one try and got the moves. needs piecing together. this one is quiet sustained and will need juice.

Woo! First 26! Felt incredibly satisfying to put this together after 7 sessions and 18 total attempts. Perfect conditions and Donna on belay = Ice cream.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Donna, Galen, Daniel Fry, Julie Sinisalmi	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Michael Thorley	Sat 10th Jun 2023
Project shopping, managed to do a few of the moves and 1 link from the final rest to the top.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels — 2 attempts - with Donna, Daniel Fry, Julie Sinisalmi	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Michael Thorley	Sun 11th Jun 2023
Managed to go ground to 1st bolt, can't quite stick the tricky heel sequence. Linked 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels — 3 attempts - with Callum P, Donna, Tom	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Michael Thorley	Sat 2nd Dec 2023
Surprised myself with the 1-sit. First time sticking the full opening sequence to the second bolt. Had a big rest then went from the 2nd to top.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels — 3 attempts - with Donna	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Michael Thorley	Mon 11th Dec 2023
First 2 redpoint burns. Tickled the break on the first attempt. Powered out setting up for the break on second attempt. Got the same low point from 2nd to finish.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels — 2 attempts - with Donna, toby_xw	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Michael Thorley	Sat 21st Oct 2023
Managed to stick the early crossover and the heel rockover! All moves done except the powerful lunge to the 2nd bolt.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels — 2 attempts - with Callum P	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Michael Thorley	Sat 11th Nov 2023
Felt shockingly weak, though finally managed to stick the lunge to the second bolt off the rope. That's all the moves done individually and a few sequences. Spose I can't really pretend after 6 "check out" goes that it's not a project anymore.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels — 3 attempts - with Donna, Tom, Callum P	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains		Michael Thorley	Sat 18th Nov 2023
Almost linked from the ground to the 2nd bolt, dropped it going for the lunge. Then linked 2nd to 4th and stuck the top again off the rope.

Fuck yes
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Match, Luke Hef	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Michael Moore	Fri 4th Mar 2022
Fucken loved it! Sorted all the moves and made some bigboi links. Stoked!
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Justin, davedave	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Michael Moore	Tue 8th Mar 2022
Baaah! Very close, got unlucky and dry fired on the last of the crimpy left traverse from bolt 2-3. Pulled back on and linked from bolt 2 to anchors. No sendy but good progress and got the ol one hang.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Justin	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Michael Moore	Mon 14th Mar 2022
Another one hang. Shouldn’t have gotten on Touch and Go.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Jim schreenan	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Michael Moore	Thu 17th Mar 2022
Soo fucken close to that middle break, once I’m there it’ll go. Dialed in a bit of the footwork setting up for the big move to the break so should be better next time.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Nathan Kenny	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Michael Moore	Sat 19th Mar 2022
Fell throwing for the jug in the middle break. Each sesh I get a little closer to that damn break and it’s so dialed from there. I also refuse to go the cheater way straight up at the second bolt so alas, another one hang.
	26	★★ Smoked Mussels - with Matt King	Sport 12m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Michael Moore	Wed 23rd Mar 2022
Not my best attempts but a good info gathering sesh. Another one hang in the books
