Ascents in Grampians as various tick types by Gareth Llewellin

Great climbing. A little bit heady off the couch especially with brand new shoes. Why has it taken me so to do this route? I climbed Simpleton 25 years ago!

The start had smaller holds than I though but they were closer together than I thought.

Steeper than it looks at the top

I missed something and it seemed tricky.

Thinner than I remembered.

Good rock. More like arapiles

Steep on mostly good jugs but not that long.

Interesting climbing. Easier and better than it looks and it looks pretty good to start with!

Great rock but not super consistent. Easy jugs, one hard move and then slightly awkward groove bit. The position on this wall is magic. Would be super popular if it was closer to the car or ground.

I might've done this twenty years ago but don't remember. Great climbing.

Supposed to be a comeback project but it went second go! After 5 months off I'm feeling strong but unfit. With Josh

Took quite a few cracks at the hard bit before I figured it out. Hard to onsight overall I reckon. Really cool subtle moves after the big move. Happy to get this after three months of not climbing. Pumped as at the top and has to pull a bit of technique out to stay on.

Good. Don't remember doing it at all. 20 years between drinks = onsight I reckon.

A bit ill conceived. The climbing after the start is pretty good

tough

I missed a couple of holds through the crux and made it harder on myself

Two little sections. They're good sections though

Better than I remembered

Really good!

An outrageous route. 2nd try after dogging. Bit of a marathon. One of my forearms blew up solid and I camped out for 15 mins at the last rest before it went down. Very satisfying.

One move.

Pumpy good climbing. Lazy anchor. Bolts feel too far right in spots.

bit forced in the middle bit. Anchor looks shit.

more logical than original.

Nice climbing, especially up high. Little bit contrived.

Great!

bolts drilled at non 90 angles, some now loose. Some stick out 8 or 9 threads

warmup. Really good!

Charged it! Went past the crux first go and then flamed out but got it second go.

Feels a bit goey at the top with the lack of feet. Way better than it looks. with Jess and Andrew

Nice and steep feeling. with Jess and Andrew

Last route of the day. Pumped silly

Nice and pumpy

Nice route. Funky moves to gets started. I used the low sidepull and ended up turning it over in my left hand to be a weird upside down gasto?!?!

This one actually has holds
