Ascents as trad by Benjamin Rowe having Distinct route

Second attempt, much lower swell (0.6m), didn't even get wet feet, rock was in perfect condition, and the climbing was stellar. Got quite pumped and had to work out the beta a little, but enjoyed and savoured the climbing and the location. The second pitch might be the money pitch, but this line is great in its own right. Pulling onto the belay ledge felt amazing - a dream adventure climb. Would recommend belaying from the ledge on the mainland, easier to manage the rope, and less risk of getting wet.

Great climbing and rock all the way, individual pitches are not too hard but the sustained climbing gets you - the top pitches became quite challenging. Didn't bring enough water, the wall gets quite hot when the sun hits, would suggest clipping a bottle of water every couple of pitches on the rap down. Fixed a single 70m and rapped the rest with a single 70m, preplacing the draws on the 24 to keep the rope out of the water. A must do for any gym climber - basically a yellow at Beta Park most of the way if you know what I mean. Very memorable day out, the orange afternoon glow was beautiful.
