| 170m, 2 | Arapiles | ★★ Very Good | Sun 16th Oct 2022 | |||
This was really really good. Yeah, a bit runout at times, and pitch 3 is a bit spicy to do the crux moves with sparse pro (thanks Tim!!), but so much fantastic climbing in this. The top of pitch 4 really needs big gear (#4 and bigger) to build a solid anchour that doesn't depend on a scary small bush!

14 16 | Preface - with Emily Hoffmann | 13m | Statham's Quarry | Don't Bother | Sat 20th Oct 2018 | |||
2 stars?? This is shit. And there is very little protection... No bolts, so I changed it to trad. And soft for a 16...

Beautiful and classic! What an intro to the pipes. But Em and I only did pitch 1 as it was her 're-introduction' to trad multi-pitch after a long hiatus, and pitch 1 delivered enough adrenalin, after which we were happy to come down, haha... Looking forward to come back to do the top pitch.

This was brilliant — when do you get to do 2 roofs on a 14, with such good pro. Araps, why had I not been here before?!?! Done in one pitch.

Holy crap, what is that ending?! Will never forget it. Managed to protect it pretty well with a big nut though. | 78m | Arapiles | ★★★ Classic | Sun 28th Jan 2024 | |||
14 | ★ Corner Shop - with Jorge Peres, Emily | 8m | Avon Valley National Park | ★ Good | Sat 27th May 2017 | |||
Fun warm up, too bad it's super short, like everything here...

14 | ★★ The Sting - with Emily Hoffmann, JP | 25m | Churchman's Brook | ★ Good | Sun 28th Oct 2018 | |||
Super easy start, then interesting chimney moves. Feels harder than a 14 when you suck at chimneys... Well protected.
|

14 | ★ Gabbro Groove - with James, Lizzie, Emily | 20m | Churchman's Brook | ★ Good | Sun 3rd Sep 2017 | |||
Quite good for the grade, easy to protect for most of it (a bit harder at the top).
|

14 | ★ Sinuosity - with Aparna Ramesh, James Waugh | 20m | Wilyabrup | ★ Good | Sat 5th Nov 2016 | |||
Nice warm up, easy to get a bit lost though...

14 | ★★ Hope - with Heidi, Brad | 30m | Wilyabrup | ★★ Very Good | Fri 6th Nov 2015 | |||
One of those enjoyable and fun climbs to get some more trad lead experience. The flake part of it is pretty awesome, and the top is a run out on easy slab. Can be great 'mind training' for trad leading.

| 40m | Wilyabrup | ★★ Very Good | Sun 23rd Oct 2016 | |||
The first pitch is a bit shit, but the second is sensational! You climb that pillar and then move out on a pretty exposed (but easy) arete with cracks for pro. Loved this second pitch!

14 | ★★ Banana Split - with Bruno Alves Buzatto, Chris, Ashlee | 30m | Wilyabrup | ★★★ Classic | Sun 27th Sep 2015 | |||
Really fun and easy trad route — only my fourth lead It's still pretty scary to get out of the banana shaped cave using mostly horizontal hand jams! But good foot holds throughout...
|
||||||||
14 | ★ Sticky Fingers - with Emily Hoffmann | 15m | Kalbarri | ★ Good | Mon 7th Jun 2021 | |||
Feels like a climb more than the 16 to the left. Great gear and nice holds when you look for them, good fun.
|
||||||||
14 | ★★ triple hot and skink - with Hugh Edwards | 20m | Moonarie | ★ Good | Fri 9th Jun 2023 | |||
A decent option if you want to warm up for crack climbing or have little time at the end of the day (rings on top), like we had. In Adelaide it could have more starts, but at Moonarie I think 1 star is very generous really...
|
||||||||
14 | ★★ Pledge a Legend - with Emily Hoffmann, Katie | 16m | Barrenjoey | ★★ Very Good | Sun 22nd Jul 2018 | |||
Beautiful line, perfect trad warm up. A bit awkward at the top, but lots of pro... Hangers needed for the top (and one carrot near the end as well I think).

Really good and a bit awkward at times, but well worth doing!

14 | ★ Refusal - with Felix | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★ Good | Sat 4th Aug 2018 | |||
Really nice actually, but the first few meters do not feel like a 14...

yeah, fun exercise in trusting small gear.

14 | ★ The Spine - with Lizzie | 25m, 3 | Statham's Quarry | ★ Good | Sat 22nd Jul 2017 | |||
Mid to large cams (surprisingly) at top! Good mix of styles...
|
||||||||
14 | ★ Sickle - with Tim Dove | 110m | Peak Charles | ★ Good | Fri 25th Sep 2020 | |||
First pitch is a strange off-width at the start. Third pitch has some scary lose blocks and felt committing. A humbling start to the trip!

| 250m | The Stirling Ranges | ★ Good | Thu 27th Dec 2018 | |||
There were some classic moments with amazing views and great exposure. But so much vegetation on your face, not sure I want to go back... I don'e even know what happened in pitch one (maybe a foothold blew?), but I was all of the sudden flying and I got caught by a 000 C3 and pure rope drag — none of my belayers had to catch the fall!!! Rope drag was horrendous throughout the day, but worst of all in pitch 1... Another highlight was smacking my own face with a 0.3 cam

Just cleaning the first pitch for Roni and warming up! This is a fun little pitch.
