Picnic Bay West Side | |||||
V2 | ★★ Picnic Pounce
Start on undercling 1m left of JM and step up the ramp before setting up for launch to pocket jug just shy of the top. Mantle finish. Might be a touch harder if you're short. | ||||
V2 | ★★ Jammers Mastication
The prominent line up jugs and the crack in central to the boulder. Start standing on the boulder at the base of the overhang. FA: James Hardcastle, 14 Jan 2020 | 5m | |||
V7 | Stone Moves
FFA: Mike Maddox | ||||
V5 | The Bulge
Farther down Picnic Bay is a giant boulder that looks like a turtle head sitting on top of other boulders. Start matched on the crack with feet to the right, then proceed to (desperately) mantle the shelf above the crack until you're able to fully stand on the shelf then top it out. You'll want 3 spotters, because if you fall to the right, it's pretty much death on the breakers. FFA: Ryan Miller | ||||

Climb up the edge of the boulder. FA: Matt Angus, 28 Nov 2014 | 6m | |||

Campus start up the rib and mantle out FA: Fil Kindblad, 22 May 2017 | 4m | |||

V5 | ★★★ Reverie
FFA: Darrin Carter & Aaron Jones, 1999 | 5m | |||
V9 | American Invasion #1
This is one of the original lines put up by Zimmerman. Original line used just the right layback seam, but would effectively make it an eliminate. the first move to the high layback puts you body in a position to use a compression move off of Reverie, then climbing both seams to the blank section. The Crux is from here to the top as originally described, But is considerably easier than the original grade of V9. Regardless, this is of equal quality to Reverie and is a must do. (Original description = Just to the R of "Highball #1" is a V9, with the crux at the top (start at the break and go up via lay offs to a thin section).) FA: Matt Zimmerman | ||||

V7 | ★★ Quart de Siècle
Up the runnel to the sidepull and slopey topout. FFA: Tristan Salson | 4m | |||
V4 | Flaker
Scary and feeling exposed with rock. Starts of with a layback then into a pinch. Optional sit start doesnt change grade. Also works as a chimney climb. Mantling is the hard part over a boss to the left | 6m | |||
