Ascents as Onsight by Ashley Felton

Short, but great for practising cam placements.

Kinda slabby

Done as one pitch. And what a pitch: solo the squeeze chimney to start, then stem your way up the chasm for the rest. Perfect friction all the way, and a cheeky little run-out at the end to add spice.

An absolute cracker. Delicate, careful moves needed for the start of this one. Good protection, but not obvious - you have to think about it. My pitch of the day, for sure.

A fine little single pitch. In Perth this would be a must do at any crag, over here it's a bit eclipsed by all the other classics nearby.

Great fun!

Pitch of the day. Technical, fun and great protection. A sensational route.

For an iconic mega classic route, I was left a little underwhelmed. First and second pitches are a bit naff, but the last three are great. A mixed bag, but still a superb outing.

What a delightful, thin formation to climb!

Pleasant enough climbing, worth doing to reach On Edge (above). Use the last third as an opportunity to practice your trad placements.

The first, second and fourth pitches make this a good slab route, the third and the topout prevent it from being very good. Pitch one, the starting flake with big layback and reachy traverse was the highlight. Take a couple of large cams for it!

Great climbing on good rock, with plenty of opportunity to protect the moves. Each of the two traverses adds some spice. The third "pitch" is a formality, but it's not as though you can avoid it. Highly recommended for a short multi-pitch adventure.

Good fun on top rope, but suffers a bit from being a one-trick pony (crux traverse). Wouldn't come back for the lead.

Unsure why this has stars; thirty seconds of laybacking off the roof crack is the highlight. I guess that it's pretty unusual in the Perth area.

This is like the special desert you treat yourself to after a workout. If climbing this doesn't make you smile, you're doing the wrong pastime.

Felt weirdly easy, easier than Whisper anyhow. Possibly it was just top-rope induced courage (didn't fancy using the single piton at 12m to protect the whole climb).

Okay to practice gear placements on, I guess.

Great crack, but super short.

Requires careful footwork and some tough crimps. Somehow everything worked out right.

Slabby, friendly, easy to protect, short.

Good protection to be had, interesting climbing, nice tense little roof sequence to finish.

Another really good moderate trad climb. One somewhat committing bit, but that's right at a nice bit of protection.

A worthy classic.
