Grade Route Gear style Crag Quality Date
17 19 R The Fear Trad 47m North Head Classic Sat 3rd May 2003
Wild moves in an unbelievably exposed situation. Rock quality not bad but it was very sandy (almost every hold needed cleaning!). Many of the the old bolts are almost rusted through completely and the old peg on the final overhanging headwall is useless (good cam next to it though). Topping out was desperate, mainly due to rope drag - it would have been better to use double ropes.

17 17 R Missing Link Trad 30m Arapiles Classic Tue 18th Feb 2003
Take a double set of RPs and double ropes are an advantage.

 
17 Zoro's Toaster (Zoro'a Toaster) Trad 28m Wolgan Valley Good Sun 9th Jan 2005

17 Viparete Trad 30m Blue Mountains Very Good Sun 22nd Sep 2002

17 Behemoth Trad 45m Arapiles Classic Wed 2nd Feb 2005
Big and scary in the vein of The Fear. Karel p1, p2 (scary) me. sharp and suspect rock and high winds added to the exposure!

p1 2nd, p2 OS, p3 2nd, p4 OS, p5 2nd.

17 Checkmate Trad 85m Arapiles Classic Fri 27th Feb 2004
If you were an aspiring grade 17 leader, this really would be checkmate to the mount. A good bold lead by dave.

 
17 Mari Trad 35m Arapiles Very Good Wed 25th Feb 2004
the pollished slick rounded layback is not nice but it gets better.

17 Cardiac Arete Trad 38m Blue Mountains Don't Bother Sun 6th Jun 2004
could be OK, but no worth-while pro on upper pitch means you may as well forget your rope. extremely poor effort by FA.
