The Pharos and Surrounds The Pharos Front Wall and West Face | ||||||
14 13 | ★ Jezebel | 86m | Average | |||
The first 2 pitches are average (specially in the rain), but the 3rd pitch is great. We finished off with the second pitch of Oceanoid.

Horrible little climb. Didn't enjoy it at all. Thought every piece of pro was going to pop-out!

17 | ★★ Edgell Gerber Memorial Flake Climb | 30m | ★★ Very Good | |||
One of the nicest 17's I've done. Worth more than 1 star!

Led by Daishy. He pumped a huge amount on gear into this thing waiting for a crux that never came.

Organ Pipes Area Organ Pipes The Red Wall & Toccata Wall | ||||||
17 | ★★ Dirge | 85m | ★★ Very Good | |||
First pitch is great. The climb would get more than 1 star if the second pitch was 50m of grade 7 choss.
|
||||||
21 | ★★ The Wraith | 35m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Led by Daishy. An easy second.
|
||||||
20 | ★★★ Tannin Direct | 20m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Solid move through the Tannin roof. An easy 20 tick if you've done Tannin before.
|
||||||
Wed 22nd Oct 2003 - Arapiles | ||||||
The Pharos and Surrounds The Pharos Death Row Pinnacle | ||||||
18 | ★★★ Death Row | 45m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
The best 18 I've done. Once you are a metre off the ground it doesn't let up until you have run out of gear 45m later. Getting out of the Condemned Cell is a mind-bender.

Northern Group Henry Bolte Wall | ||||||
23 | ★ Gurtle Tier | 12m, 3 | Average | |||
Tough for the grade. 4 bolts - and it's dry in the rain, but the mossies will eat you alive.

Mon 6th Oct 2003 - Moonarie | ||||||
Great Wall Area | ||||||
19 | ★★★ Downwind of Angels | 40m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
A very long, sustained first pitch that will blow your forearms to pieces. Definitely one of the "must do" Moonarie classics.
|
||||||
23 | ★★★ Against the Wind | 45m, 2 | ★★ Very Good | |||
Sustained climbing up to the crux before the bolt. We then did the direct finish from the bolt which was pretty run-out.
|

Sat 4th Oct 2003 - Moonarie | ||||||

16 | ★★ Asimov | 70m | ★ Good | |||
Got the first pitch clean, but abseiled off given the horror stories we'd been told about the second.
|

15 | ★★★ Pagoda Variant | 100m | ★★ Very Good | |||
A nice journey up the huge flake on Checkers Wall with Carolyn
|
||||||
24 | ★★★ The Wild Child | 28m | ★ Good | |||
Kept flipping upside-down off the first bolt, so didn't really give it a good go.

This climb is really really hard for 19! I had to completely bypass the roof at the bottom, and then blew to pieces at the top and had to have a sit.

12 | ★★ Miss Gnomer | 12m | Average | |||
I thought it was solid for the grade. Lots of pro, but no footholds.
|
||||||
20 | ★★★ Paradigm | 15m | ★★ Very Good | |||
After getting spat off the 2x22's to the left of this climb, it was good to finally get up something! This climb would be a great lead.
