Sun 28th Apr 2024 - The Stirling Ranges
Bluff Knoll North Face
	14	★★ Hell Fire Gully - with Harry B	Trad 250m	★★★ Classic
Spectacular. The first two pitches may make you think "why am I here?", but the others are sure to deliver. Arapelisian jugs with mediocre to okay protection. Would do again.

Good chimney climb.

Fell on the onsight lead attempt! Cool climb but harder than 16.
	15	★★ First Route - with Harry	Trad 30m	★★ Very Good
Good rock and good moves. Top is a bit run-out.

Amazing rock. Every pitch is different and classic.
Thu 21st Dec 2023 - Mount Buffalo
Mackeys Lookout
	15	★★ The Count of Mounting Crystals - with Ryder Jamson	Mixed trad 200m, 10	★★★ Classic
The money pitch was amazing and sustained slabbing for the grade. I loved the bolt spacing too, just enough run-out to keep it engaging and also provide you with that sigh of relief at every bolt. A great day out. My feet are toast though.
	15 ~14	★ Good Luck & Good Management 510m 14 - with Ryder Jamson 1 Trad 2 Trad 3 Trad 4 Trad 5 Trad 6 Trad	Trad 450m	★ Good
Fairly good climbing to access TCOMC. First pitch has a lot of excoriating edges. Everything felt reasonably protected. The 2nd pitch was my favourite. Only did the first 6 pitches.
Wed 20th Dec 2023 - Mount Buffalo
Eurobin Falls
	14	★ Mother of Pearl	Trad 180m	★★★ Classic
Everything I wanted. So unique! I loved the mellow slab run-outs and long pitches (did it in 4). Rapped down the waterfall too which was so amazing in the heat. Though I wouldn't recommend to anyone unless you have two 70m ropes. We reached the knots on each rap 5m above the next belay/ground. Made it all the more exciting. To top it off the ropes.got stuck at the base of the falls and I had to swim through them to retrieve them. It was an exhilarating day. Glad to have shared it with Ryder.

Good adventure. Few captivating movements, though Ryder did do a dyno 15m above his gear to jump rightward back onto the route instead of downclimbing - easily the craziest thing I've ever seen someone do on a slab
Sun 12th Nov 2023 - Freycinet National Park
Coastal Cliffs Whitewater Wall
	10 Hard	★ Ultimate Conception - with dave m	Trad 45m	★ Good
The first 2/3 are Stellar. But the rest is average.
Thu 2nd Nov 2023 - Lowdina
	19 Hard	★ Demon Child	Trad 20m	★ Good
Cool moves up the slab, dihedral and through the rooflet. One one hard move. Worthwhile.
	11	★★ Tormentil	Trad 15m	★★ Very Good
Thu 26th Oct 2023 - Kempton Quoin

Thu 13th Apr 2023 - Arapiles
Mitre Rock South Mitre
	11 ~14	★★ The Bishop - with rose	Trad 50m	★★ Very Good
Too much upper body strength required for the first move of the second pitch for it to be grade 11.
Thu 13th Apr 2023 - Arapiles
The Watchtower Faces Pinnacle Face Tiptoe Ridge Area

	16	Wait, this isn't - with Ella and Emma	Trad 25m	Average
Thought this was Narcolepsy... got my lefts and rights confused. Anyway, the first half was actually good, pity the second half is terrible and dangerous.

Lost World Area Lost World
	22	★★★ Savage Journey - with Ewan Barry, tc	Trad 30m	★★★ Classic
One sit at the bolt, another with 1m to go. Not as savage as I anticipated, would be different leading it though.
	21	★★★ Atlantis - with Ewan Barry, tc	Trad 25m	★★★ Classic
Wed 18th Jan 2023 - Mount Wellington
Lost World Area Lost World
	25	★★★ Rose Pink Cadillac Direct - with pat eberhard	Mixed trad 20m, 3	★★★ Classic
I got whopped. Think I could get to the overlap in one push but the direct finish stumped me. Great fun.
Wed 4th Jan 2023 - Mount Wellington
The Organ Pipes Flange Buttress
	14	★★ Fiddlesticks - with Dave	Trad 65m	★★ Very Good
Repeat with Dave. I enjoyed it more this time than ever... maybe because I can jam now.
Tue 27th Dec 2022 - Mount Wellington
The Organ Pipes Step Tier
	17	★★ Xenophanes - with Evie Simpson	Trad 81m	★★ Very Good
First pitch was half vegetation, half fun. Second pitch tested me in the offwidth. Third pitch was awesome, secure hand jamming. I'd give it 1.5 stars if I could.

Ben took some mighty whips at the crux.

	24	★★ Horrorscope — 5 attempts - with Conor Duggan	Trad 16m	★★ Very Good

The crack wasnt too hard but I fell off the face holds up top. One move away from the jug. Cool fall though.
	17	★★ Moby Dick - with Conor Duggan	Trad 15m	★★ Very Good
Really good. I jammed it, Conor laybacked it.
Sun 20th Nov 2022 - Arapiles
Central Gully Central Gully Left Charity Buttress
	9 Hard	★ Hope - with rose	Trad 16m	★ Good
Some crack technique required at the top

Fri 18th Nov 2022 - Arapiles
Atridae Agamemnon Area
	15	★★ Necrophilliac - with Conor Duggan, Ben Fulton	Trad 25m	★★ Very Good
One of my favourites. I wish the crack section went another 50m or so.
	11	★★★ Agamemnon - with Conor Duggan, Ben Fulton	Trad 40m	★★★ Classic
Truly unique and amazing. Honestly I was more scared on this than anything else I've lead this trip, perhaps intensified by linking the two pitches and the strong winds through the chasm. A must do.
Fri 18th Nov 2022 - Arapiles
The Watchtower Faces The Watchtower
	9	★★★ Arachnus	Trad 110m	★★★ Classic
Wow. Started 5pm finished at 9pm with the last pitch at the end of the sunset. Beautiful climb. Lead soloing it was a big mission. Quickly too. Probably would have been more fun with a group. But I did get to see Conor and Ben leading watch Tower crack at the same time. 240m for me.

Organ Pipes Area Organ Pipes Central Organ Pipes
	8	★★ Diapason	Trad 55m	★★ Very Good
Finally did some lead solo. Showering on and off but I was too eager to get into it. First day of nine at araps. I think I've hot my system dialled now. Great route for the grade
Sat 1st Oct 2022 - Mount Wellington
The Organ Pipes Northern Buttress
	12	★★ Pulpit Chimney - with Dave Morley	Trad 60m	★★ Very Good
Repeat. I think some of the chimney moves and the last move of the 1st pitch are harder than grade 12, having climbed this route at least four times now. Very good fun.

	17	FA ★ Cruxy Demons - with Ben Fulton, p.higgins, d.morley	Trad 20m	★ Good
A bit of fun. Watch out for rope drag. Tried to head right at the top of the corner but it was too licheny. Might scrub up well.
Sun 21st Aug 2022 - Lowdina
	14 13	★ Casuarina Crack - with p. higgins, Ben Fulton, dave morley	Trad 15m	★★ Very Good
Great climb. My team thought it was more like 16! What's going on? Harder than Morning Sun.
	14	★★ Things to do While Waiting for the Apocalypse - with p. higgins, Ben Fulton, dave morley	Trad 20m	★★ Very Good
Fantastic route, glad this one was cleaned up. RPs helped
Sun 31st Jul 2022 - Lowdina
	12 13	★★ Greenknowe - with dave morley, tjaart	Trad 15m	★★ Very Good
Good climbing. Hard to protect the first third.
	11 12	★★ Papillion - with dave morley, tjaart	Trad 15m	★★★ Classic
One of the best introductions to crack at the grade in TAs.

	13	★ Electric Mud - with felipedarin	Trad 10m	★ Good
Guidebook called this an 11. 13 is much more reasonable. It was a privilege to belay Felipe's extraordinary effort on his 2nd ever Trad lead on this. Not many people try hard enough to whip so early on in the game.

	20	★★★ Juggernaut - with felipedarin, Ewan Barry, will grant, emma street, ella brooke dent	Trad 30m	★★★ Mega Classic
What a fight. First real offwidths. Spat me out half way up after a good fight and much indecision about which leg to stick in.
	19	★★ Magical Mystery Tour - with felipedarin, Ewan Barry, will grant, emma street, ella brooke dent	Trad 34m	★★ Very Good
Done in the dark. Couldnt see any face holds so I resorted to the best hand stacks and fist hand stacks I've ever pulled through.
	21	★★★ Conquistador - with felipedarin, Ewan Barry, will grant, emma street, ella brooke dent	Trad 45m	★★★ Mega Classic
Everything came together for this one. It started raining just as I made it onto the face on the top. A brilliant and classy route that brings so much joy to the climber.

	17	★★★ Smoked Banana - with emma street	Trad 40m	★★★ Mega Classic
Fantastic through the hand jams into the overhang jugs. Almost dropped off placing gear in the under cling before falling into the chimney. Slipped down the chimney near the top but my bloodied knees caught my fall before the rope did. Probably the biggest battle I've had on a 17.

	16	★★★ Satan's Smokestack - with will grant	Trad 40m	★★★ Mega Classic
Hard to protect the first 10m, but otherwise brilliant.

Night time climb. Didn't see much but the moves were like nothing I'd done before. Very cool.

Night time send. Very good, great gear.

Worthwhile as a link up with a pitch below.
	17	★★ Blood, Sweat and Tears - with Ewan Barry	Trad 40m	★★ Very Good
An awkward but fun adventure. Pretty solid for 17. Avoid the blazing sun.
	16	★★ Materialistic Prostitution - with Ewan Barry	Trad 20m	★★★ Classic
Heaps of fun. Well protected. Linked into WB.
