Tue 20th Mar 2018 - Blue Mountains
Bell's Line of Road Pierces Pass Yesterday's Groove Area
	24 ★★★ Yesterday's Groove just a word for those who may be pushing the boat out at this grade. It is hard. The 1st pitch is solid 22 and maybe 23. The 2nd pitch (40mts) is magic with one move just before the belay that will challenge. The traverse is fun but I reckon you should belay at the end of the traverse before moving vertically up the last few metres. It could really do with a proper Belay station here. Otherwise you can incur a lot of drag and not be able to look after your second if they come off the traverse. We took a couple of bolt brackets to give a bit of courage when we were struggling with clips. Small cams also came in handy on the third pitch. A fun day out for two old blokes. - with john wilde
