	19	★ Bite My Chunk - with Alexei Drummond	Sport 18m, 5	★★ Very Good
Dirty and unnecessary spooky 1st AND 2nd bolt. Other 19 to the left is a better line, too

	16	★ Neanche Dare Baci - with cinthy lorena jimenez silva	Sport 21m, 9	★ Good
Cruising with Cinthy ♡ Why is this a 3-stars when the one to the right is better, fight me. 😂
	16	★★ Mohrele - with cinthy lorena jimenez silva	Sport 24m, 11	★★ Very Good
Cruising with Cinthy ♡ Why does this one have no stars, but the one next to it has 3??? Makes no sense.

Nice n cruisey
	22	★ Sweet Dreams	Sport 16m	★ Good
Would have been onsight but someone left ticks on all the crucial holds 😑 felt like a bloody gym climb as a result. Oh well. Update: strong climber telling me stull counts as onsight so have changed this 🤷🏽‍♀️ doesn't really matter either way
	20	★★ Tongue In Groove	Sport 14m	★★ Very Good
Love that I can feel fresh even when I'm knackered as long as the holds are juggy enough, overhung or nah! 😂 found two nice fingerlocks in this one, too 👍🏼

Middle Curtain
	19	Sidewinder - with Alexei Drummond	Sport 15m, 3	Average
Should have just jumped on the 20 for a warm up instead 😑 the traverse from 1st to past 2nd bolt is actually fairly nice (techy) but after that, what a choss pile and then it's over
Sun 2nd Jan 2022 - Wye Creek

	16	Les Petites Marionettes - with Alexei Drummond	Sport 10m, 3	Don't Bother
In what universe is this a 16? 😂 also, in what universe should this have even been bolted? Piece of crap short, badly bolted route with a single bolt, 2-link chain anchor 🔗⚓ do not bother.
	19	★★ Missing Mills - with Alexei Drummond	Sport 22m, 7	★★ Very Good
Fun techy slab followed by fun chimney stemmy part! Only complaint is that it really needs its own anchor. Unnecessary to climb easy slab to the shared anchor with the 22, and it fucks up the rope!
	22	★★★ Aqua Amnesia - with Alexei Drummond	Sport 22m, 9	★★★ Classic
My favourite onsight? Great route (I do love arêtes 🧡), got a cool kneebar somewhere near the start of the arête, got pumped but pushed through it, got feet up and milked the rests ✌🏼

Sat 13th Mar 2021 - Hospital Flat
Brummy Crag
	22	★★ Concentration Campus - with Alexei Drummond	Sport 26m, 14	★★ Very Good
A scramble past a couple bolts that you can ignore if you like, then an easy slab onto a bit of crimpy quartzy face climbing to a ledge for a shake out before crux. Get to an undercling under the roof. Clip just above it (off a crimp for me because I couldn't see anything else), then up and over rooflet to a second ledge for another shake out. More slabby stuff eases you off to anchor. Has been rebolted, the last bolt before anchor now hidden in a tuft of grass in the crack between your anchor and the 19 to the left 🤔 can skip it though
Sun 28th Feb 2021 - Mangorewa
