22 Crappy Upper Tier Sport Route

This is the short steep ringbolted sport route above the belay ledge at the top of Catch the Wind. It trends left on good orange rock then continues up suss black rock.

FA: Unknown 2000s

Sport 13m, 5
19 Catchit

Ring bolted slab. Rap in to the halfway ledge and climb back out.

FA: J.Smoothy, 1988

Sport 15m
25 Mekong Dreaming

Start at the first belay of CtW. Easily approached by abseiling in and walking 5m R on the ledge. You only need 1 or 2 red camalots for the belay if also using the rap rope and the first bolt. Climb 4m up right, then up the excellent steep prow in a great position. Lower off the last ring, or take brackets for a cramped top belay off carrots.

25 Second Dreaming

The mega link of Second Wind into Mekong Dreaming. Climbs the best of both routes. Take some long draws for the traverse.

24 Second Wind

Left line off the shared start. A fine route. Climb Passing Wind to its third bolt and then step left and head straight up the line of rings. Gentle for the grade.

FA: G.Bradbury & J.Smoothy, 1988

Sport 30m
22 Passing Wind

Straight up the centre of the gorgeous overhung orange wall five or so metres right of and around the arete from Catch the Wind. The middle line of the shared start. Difficult moves getting established on to the wall (there is often a cairn) and then excellent consistent climbing on lovely rock all the way to the top. You can lower off the bolts on the wall above the top out without rope issues.

23 Eat. Sleep. Climb. Repeat

The rightmost line off the shared start.

Great new climb on this mega wall. Thin sequencey moves to start and then the holds just get better and better the higher you climb.
