Linked pitches 1, 2 and maybe part of 3 into a ~50m pitch. Ended up popping up onto the big ledge at the end of P1 of zeitgeist where a large party was waiting to continue up their route. Harry came up and gave the next pitch a go but after pulling off a large rock and the rest of the pitch not looking much better, he decided to down climb back to the belay. We figured that was enough fun for one day and bailed down zeitgeist. Not really sure what we climbed but figured this was close enough.

Started on the whiteman, but the route we ended up on after black orpheous' first belay seems to match this better. Pulled off a few holds on pitches 2/3 (also sounds like this climb...). Definitely a bit spicy with loose rocks and runouts. Led pitches 1 (of Whiteman) and 4/5, Chris led 2/3.

Meant to climb the whiteman, but I'm pretty sure we drifted onto this soon after black orpheous' first belay. It may have been due to the recent storms, but I was pulling off dinner-plate sized blocks through p2/3. That, along with the lack of gear, made it a little disconcerting.

A bit of an adventure but a cool head under pressure stopped it short of turning into an epic.

Partner got well off route on P3 and ended up straying into proper no mans land (yep, it's Desp. Wall), hugely runout on bad rock. Ended up finishing the pitch on a Zeigeist anchor, so we finished up that.
