19 Talking Italian Mixed trad 40m, 2
Nice extension to Abracadbra. Two good carrots lead to comfy ledge and double-bolt belay. Second pitch to top of boulder is slabby, sandy, easy but a little insecure climbing with run-outs. Might be better to rap off at the bolts and then collect you anchors by leading through on the entire line of Abracadabra... (With JB and Enmoore)

Blackheath Area Mt Boyce Abseil Gully
13 Bonnie Scotland - with Karni Daniel Trad 53m Classic
I rate this highly. Lovely. Better than Another Man's Juliet. Spaced but very good gear - mostly cams. Book seems wrong - go right of the overhang, not left. Grade - once again the grades on this wall are out of whack - BS should be 15 like Another Man's Juliet. Set Piece Battle should be 14.

 
10 Sweet Irish Trad 49m Good
Nice lead by Karni - especially in the blustery conditions. I still think the initial wall deserves a 13/14.

 
12 The Eyrie Mixed trad 45m, 3 Classic
Karni P1 to the ring and bolt belay. me p2 to the top. Nice way of doing it without needing to go into the cave - just climb around the outside.

 
Sat 5th Oct 2013 - Blue Mountains
Leura Mt Hay
13 13 R Margarine Ridge Trad 380m Classic
With JB and Sean. I led P1, 4, 6, 8. Sean led 2, 5, 9. JB led 3, 7. Took us 8.5 hours. 8am started first pitch. 4.30pm topped out. Seconds simulclimbed (on belay) every pitch but the first. First pitch is still concerning.

16 Orang Utan - with Warwick Williams Trad 67m Classic
If P2 is equal crux (which I think it is) this is a technical onsight. WW led P1 and P3. Take a number 6 Friend for P2 or else get scared. P3 is stellar and P1 will test your overhanging chimney jamming/stemming.

Seaside Windjammer Wall
19 Full Sail Trad 40m Classic
P1 Dr C. P2 me. Full service climb. P2 felt like 19 too.
