20 Home James - with Lindsay Barklay Mixed trad 30m, 4 Mount Buffalo Very Good 2013
Great route. Fantastic position. Take wires and perhaps cams .3 to no.1 (BD).

 
20 17 Fire Bug Trad 63m Blue Mountains Crap Wed 20th Jan 2021
After climbing stellar lines at the grade both at Araps and Mt Buffalo, this route is possibly the crappiest, undergraded most horrendous, thrutchy sandbagged grade 17 I've done in my entire climbing career. The rock in many places is choss, alot of the gear is crap, the suggestion of moving the belay up by 2m at the end of pitch 2 would be great if it actually had good gear, pitch 3 could be graded 20 and I wouldn't bat an eye. My personal opinion? Zero stars. Think I'll stick to bolted lines in the Blueys as it seems many trad lines here are complete choss piles compared with other beautiful Trad climbing areas. 2 hours of my life I'll never get back.
