Ascents in Paynes Ford by Miles Mason Winther

First two bolts are very far apart even by NZ standards

Plenty of excitement available on this!

Got through to the last crux before falling. Feels very doable but needs better conditions.

Enduro af. IMO a grade harder than Send a Gorilla. Excellent rock though!

Slipped off on the onsight go, tricky beta!

Intimidating!

Does is get better than this?? Happy to work out all the moves, will have to come back with more skin and colder temps to get this.

Classic Paines Ford enduro stuff. Luckily there were some holds marked for me so I could thrutch through!

,Varied, tricky movement. Not an easy one to put down!

Three attempts, came within two moves of the top but had a foot slip.

Find the holds, then build the power endurance! Awesomely sustained up to the ledge, perfectly bolted, comfortable holds and fun moves on solid rock.

Powerful, sustained movement from the ground to the top. I worked this for a week back in 2010 but never got it clean, came back this year and sent first try!

Nice rock, but not a very direct or sustained line

Awesome climbing with a draining red point crux. Well protected, but shares two bolts with the neighbouring Recidivist so watch out for that.

Awesome rock
