25 24 Kanoon Mixed trad 12m, 4 Coffs Harbour Classic Sat 24th Mar 2012
Juicy. Really cool sequence, jugs everywhere and then a big left leap of faith which once stuck is definitely the highlight.

 
V3 Socially just fucker Boulder 8m Beulah Very Good Fri 6th Apr 2012
Really cool low traverse, a little sequency before a rest on the vertical line. Delicate finish.

 
25 Allypop And The Ice-Man - with Alen Sport 15m, 4 Coffs Harbour Very Good Sun 15th Jul 2012
Sweet mixture of juggy/slopper throws, finishing with crimpy moves, gets a bit pumpy at the top.

 
21 Jeff's Live Round Sport 8m, 3 Coffs Harbour Good Mon 16th Apr 2012
The type of route that would become better the more times you climbed it. Some interesting features, and a little sequency.

 
18 Prize Winning Duck - with Thor Sport 10m, 4 Coffs Harbour Good Sun 15th Jul 2012
Nice moves.

 
18 Steves Preposterous Hypothesis - with Paul Sport 15m, 7 Coffs Harbour Very Good Sun 15th Jul 2012
A good techy climb with cool features. Liking the garden!

 
V6 Power Monkey SDS Boulder Beulah Very Good Mon 16th Apr 2012
Reachy. Privileged to climb it pre-flake removal. Another sweet route on the power boulder. Will try the sit start next year.

 
V6 Vulcanology Boulder 4m Upper Gara Gorge Very Good Sun 22nd Apr 2012
Awesome sequence on the rail, good stuff up top, linking the two isn't pretty but damn fun - Doin the worm!

 
V6 V6/7 Bus driver traverse Boulder 7m Upper Gara Gorge Classic Sat 19th May 2012
Worked all the moves for a bit and then went on a sending train with Nathan and Alan. A bit of everything, slopers, crimps, jugs, crystals, heels and palms, not to mention a classic crotch thrutch compression (oldie but a goodie). Oh and watch your dab. Do chalk bags count?

 
V8 V6 Trepanation (NE17) - with Alen, Carol, Nath, George, Amy and Ili Boulder 5m Stonehenge Classic Sun 1st Jul 2012
Sweet problem with great moves and a high ball to boot. Awesome pulling of tiny crimps in order to head right into the void where you soon realise all the holds are gone.....hold in there, breathe deep and go high.

 
V6 Candy for Jeff - with Alan and Nath Boulder 3m Mt Yarrowyck Classic Sat 21st Jul 2012
Great route sent with the aid of some glorious wintery friction. avoid the finger shredding crystal cluster high and left and go straight for the juicy crimp just above them.

 
V6 More Candy - with Alan and Nath Boulder 3m Mt Yarrowyck Classic Sat 21st Jul 2012
V6 New Beginning - with Alan, Nath, Tim, April, Ili, and Amy Boulder 4m Mt Yarrowyck Very Good Sat 21st Jul 2012
Cool problem, even cooler once April decided to send it on her way past.

 
V6 Vulcanology - with Carol Boulder 4m Upper Gara Gorge Very Good Wed 15th Aug 2012
V6 Mergatroyd - with Skip, Alan, Thor and Denni Boulder 3m Mt Yarrowyck Classic Sun 29th Jul 2012
Great climb. A little compressiony, sequency, and a good excuse to use your heels.

 
V5 Two face - with Skip, Alan and Amy Boulder 6m Upper Gara Gorge Very Good Sun 2nd Sep 2012
Very cool and very high, pad-up for this one. Jug on the rail (complete with garden) is juicy, here you can afford a rest and shake out before throwing your left foot on the rail, searching out the high left crimp and even higher juicy right pocket.

 
V4 Spider Monkey Boulder Beulah Very Good Fri 6th Apr 2012
Yes the flake will hold you (unless crowbarred off). Really cool route, bit of heel action too. Nice find Alan.

 
V4 Razor Light Boulder 2m Beulah Good Sun 18th Mar 2012
Sharp, no back jamming, just one massive cruxy reach for your left hand (unless you do what Carol does and heel hook like spider lady)

 
V4 Rock-hugger Boulder 4m Upper Gara Gorge Sat 23rd Jun 2012
V4 Dyno - with Al, Nath, Amy, Carol and George Boulder 3m Upper Gara Gorge Very Good Sat 23rd Jun 2012
Sweet moves

 
V4 Dyno extension Boulder 4m Upper Gara Gorge Very Good Sat 23rd Jun 2012
V5 V4 Cliffhanger (NE22) - with Carol, Alen, Nath, George, Cam Boulder 5m Stonehenge Classic Sun 1st Jul 2012
Sharp right moves, reachy left side-pull, pocket and crimps. Cut sick on the lip, there's plenty of good stuff to finish.

 
V4 Mozzie Rock - with George, Tim, April, Daph and Carol Boulder 4m Upper Gara Gorge Very Good Wed 15th Aug 2012
V4 Hard arete - with April, George, Darcy, Carol, Daph and Tim Boulder 5m Upper Gara Gorge Good Wed 15th Aug 2012
Work to set feet right, high left pinch and a sharp right hand crimper see's you through the crux.

 
V4 Lost world - with Skip, Alan, Thor and Denni Boulder 2m Mt Yarrowyck Very Good Wed 15th Aug 2012
Funky left foot roll and weight is essential. Desperate high throw to the right sloper.

 
V3 Rhys's crack Boulder 3m Beulah Very Good Fri 6th Apr 2012
It wants to be climbed but until you get you feet in the right place it wont happen. Once sequence is unlocked its a route to run up and enjoy.

 
V3 Bus Driver Boulder 3m Upper Gara Gorge Very Good Sat 19th May 2012
Great open hand sloper (no wonder Todd loves it), but sharp and crimpy right hands. Very nice!

 
V3 Sharpest mono in the world - with Skip, Alan, Thor and Denni Boulder 4m Mt Yarrowyck Sun 29th Jul 2012
Good fun. Must at least touch the 'sharpest Mono in the world' on the way through even if you don't weight it - and you wouldn't want to.

 
V3 Whitegoods with a view - with Skip, Alan, Thor and Denni Boulder 5m Mt Yarrowyck Very Good Sun 29th Jul 2012
Sketchy fall (if you were to fall to the right), take a bunch of pads and go for it. The right arete is better than you think, and jug at the top is very rewarding. Doesn't finish there though.

 
V4 V3 Face Jump Start - with Skip, Alan and Amy Boulder 4m Upper Gara Gorge Classic Sun 2nd Sep 2012
Finally hung around at the lip long enough to send it. A really slow thought out mantle was all it took. Not much at the top but slopers have plenty of friction. Good pad placement is essential.

 
V2 Light up my chimney Boulder 10m Beulah Very Good Sun 8th Apr 2012
And a close second ascent please. Only did it so Brendan would stop giving me slack for forgetting his esky.....A neat climb. Might want to take some mats into the cave for crossing the void. Climbing shoes are also a recommendation.

 
V2 S1 - The Mushroom (S1) - with Al, Nath, George, Darcy and Carol Boulder Stonehenge Very Good Sun 1st Jul 2012
Interesting little rock with some fun features on the nose. Great open hand slopers - no wonder Todd loves it.

 
V2 Just the arete - with April, George, Darcy, Carol, Daph and Tim Boulder 2m Upper Gara Gorge Average Wed 15th Aug 2012
V2 Layback - with Skip, Alan, Thor and Denni Boulder 3m Mt Yarrowyck Average Sun 29th Jul 2012
Very chossy didn't have time to clean and search for good holds but they are there.

 
V2 Pocket fest - with Skip, Alan, Thor and Denni Boulder 4m Mt Yarrowyck Very Good Sun 29th Jul 2012
Great warm-up sweet features

 
V0 Easy peasy - with April, George, Darcy, Carol, Daph and Tim Boulder 2m Upper Gara Gorge Good Wed 15th Aug 2012
V0 Layback - with April, George, Darcy, Carol, Daph and Tim Boulder 2m Upper Gara Gorge Good Wed 15th Aug 2012
V0 Traverse - with Skip, Alan, Thor and Denni Boulder 3m Mt Yarrowyck Average Sun 29th Jul 2012
V0 Thunderbolt crack - with Skip, Alan, Thor and Denni Boulder 4m Mt Yarrowyck Good Sun 29th Jul 2012
Good hand and foot jam practice.

 
26 Se A Cabo / Happy Birthday Francis Sport 8m, 6 Upper Gara Gorge Classic Wed 25th Apr 2012
Even sweeeeter. Great moves, bit of everything and then it gets better. The extended top-out is icing on the cake.

 
25 Bullet with Butterfly Wings Sport 7m, 4 Upper Gara Gorge Classic Wed 25th Apr 2012
Sweeeeeet climb. Juggy, powerful right was the crux for me. A little overgrown, but Alan soon located all the holds.
