had a bit of a time on this one, faffed around bumping gear around then committed to the traverse, got scared and tickled the ground. My partner tried with the same results. Managed to pull through on my second shot with a thank jesus sit once i got a cam in. Then i just had to persevere through a gross hanging belay on two pieces just above the roof. Bring more three's if you like feeling all warm and fuzzy. Pretty classic all up, it felt legit for only being 10m off the ground.

22 | ★★★ Nemesis | 130m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Punted once on the crux pitch, sent all others. Four great pitches, all presenting a challenge and one mandatory quest through choss and lichen.

||||||
24 | ★★ Curving Wall | 80m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Pretty epic adventure, getting to the roof wasn't easy with plenty of choss and tricky fingerlockoffs. Mark figured out the beta and sent with some deep fist jams and gumption. When it came to my turn I completely bailed on that way and opted for foot first fist stacking and screaming mayhem 100m off the deck. I did not send.

24 | ★★★ Astroboy | 36m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
What a ridiculous splitter. About 25m of pure red, on my onsight burn i fought stupidly hard and only got 1/3rd or 1/2 way before getting spat off. Then hopelessly and spookily dogging up with less cams than i would've liked. Send or no I'm super stoked I backed myself and pulled the rope for the lead.
