	16	★★★ Ruby Of India	Trad 210m	★★★ Classic	Sun 26th Oct 2014
Super cool! Pitch 5 was my fave - lots of big jugs and excellent sharp crimps. I think I did far more bush bashing than I should have on the lower pitches.

Easy little ramble heading up to Faki ledge.
	15	★ Rest Area Ahead	Trad 10m	Average	Sun 19th Jul 2015

	21	★★ Fluid Journey	Trad 40m	★★ Very Good	Sat 12th Jul 2014
Brutal. Couple of very desperate moves in the middle. Tree at the top is pretty awkward.
	19	★★ Electronic Flag DS - RHS (Electronic Flag DS)	Trad 10m	★★ Very Good	Sun 19th Apr 2015
40m of this would be rough.
	14	★★ Electronic Flag	Trad 40m	★★ Very Good	Sun 19th Apr 2015
Nice and cruisy up the top/middle.
	18	Arknamton 2	Trad 30m	★ Good	Sat 20th Sep 2014
Kinda cool. Would recommend rapping off the tree as corner up to the top is dirty as all hell.
	13	★★ Clockwork Orange Corner	Trad 15m	★★ Very Good	Sun 19th Jul 2015
need to get around to leading this sometime

Not easy at the start. Nice climb though.
	19	★ The Kiwi Experience	Trad 12m	★★ Very Good	Sat 20th Sep 2014
Cool climb! A little bit dirty in places, and the precarious looking death block is a little concerning.
	18	Farty Clacker	Trad 12m	★★ Very Good	Sat 20th Sep 2014
Feels very tenuous!

	16 17	★ Fat Mattress	Trad 30m	★★ Very Good	Sat 9th May 2015

A bit ambitious. Toe slipped & I peeled, struggled to trust myself after that.
	18	★ Dave Manks Electric Gorilla	Trad 20m	★★ Very Good	Sun 14th Sep 2014
Very nice! Keen to try it direct next time.
	16	★ Mainliner	Trad 20m	★ Good	Sun 14th Sep 2014
Kinda weird one. Almost came sliding out trying to stuff my feet into the flaring crack.
	15	★ Mechanical Prune	Trad 18m	★★ Very Good	Sun 15th Jun 2014
A nice little climb. Found myself desperately searching for some sort of pro a few times, but it's all there. Cool committing finish.
	14	★ Shit Heap	Trad 10m	★ Good	Sat 20th Jun 2015
if it was 40m it'd be a stonking route
	13	★ Electric Mud	Trad 10m	★ Good	Sun 4th May 2014
Got a bit frazzled placing gear. Nice climb.
	17	★ Side-pocket Shot	Trad 15m	★★ Very Good	Sun 4th May 2014

	15	★ David Mac	Mixed trad 18m, 3	★ Good	Tue 3rd Mar 2015
Trying to cram a fat nylon sling down that hole was fun. Worked better once I got passed my nut tool.
	15 16 R	★ Insomnia	Mixed trad 18m, 4	Don't Bother	Sun 18th Aug 2013
Didn't really enjoy it. Took a rest after the second bolt as I got sketched out by the potential groundfall.

very nice! Good flow to it. not easy though!
	20	★★ Postmodernist Blues	Mixed trad 20m, 2	★★ Very Good	Tue 17th Mar 2015
one more for fun
Oceania Australia Queensland South East Sunshine Coast Glasshouse Mountains Mt Beerwah South Face
	17	★★ The Martian	Mixed trad 320m, 22	★★ Very Good	Sun 12th Sep 2021
An enjoyable outing. Last couple of pitches were a bit of a sting the tail after the pleasant rambling of the rest of the climb - they were also the cleanest & best pitches on the climb, so it wasn't all bad. Pitch lengths listed here seem accurate - pitch 4&5 run together left me pulling against rope stretch to clip into the anchor (using 60m half ropes).

Very nice route! Long, fairly sustained & quite interesting climbing. Wigged out a bit climbing through the crux above a couple of hilariously shit cams.

	20	★★ The Chris Mann Route	Mixed trad 99m, 23	★★★ Classic	Sat 25th Jul 2015
Intended to do sunburnt buttress, didn't go left after the first belay and ended up this instead. Pitch 3 is excellent - highly recommended.
	19	★★ Sunburnt Buttress	Trad 190m	★★ Very Good	Sun 15th Sep 2019
Fun rambling line - but at times the route taken seems a little bit arbitrary. Climbing is mostly pleasant and on good rock, the traversing is novel. Enough spice to keep things interesting.
	16	★★ Blabbermouth	Mixed trad 200m, 6	★ Good	Sat 25th Jul 2015
Traversed over from the end of Chris Mann Route to the last few pitches of this one.

	17	★ Night Moves	Mixed trad 30m, 14	★★ Very Good	Mon 2nd Apr 2018
Awesome climbing with an interesting style. Lots of loose dirt & small loose flakes on the face. If it gets more traffic it could clean up into a classic. No trad gear necessary.
	14	★★ Madrigal	Trad 20m	★★ Very Good	Sat 31st Mar 2018
Kinda Cruisy down low with a fun crack at the top. Stiff for the grade.

	17	★★ Guided Missile (Guided Missile P1) 1 17 30m	Trad 30m	★★ Very Good	Sat 24th Apr 2021
First pitch only. Pretty good, rock quality was OK. Found the belay ledge very uncomfortable.

A bit thrutchy.
