Begehungen in 8 Degrees Lane Cove

Hard (for me at least), v satisfying.

Very fun climbing and not too scary, perfect for outdoor beginners like myself!

Like this one!

Terrific climbing throughout

Not too hard, just need some commitment near the top, and I’ve always had commitment issues…

Nice little problem. About 5 or 6 goes in a session so maybe not the hardest V5 around. Once you flip the right hand to an undercling it's pretty much done. Using your thumb helps in a few places

Very solid 5! Might have to work a bit harder if you're shorter. Great techy climbing.

Another day. Another attempt. Feels ages away from a send.

Feel so close yet so far. Maybe doing the splits (or close to) is going to be a part of the beta? Time will tell…

fun route, downclimb for this rock is a little sketch though. I went for a compression downclimb against the cliff, but realised later there are a whole bunch of metal spikes (foundations from construction?) sticking out of the ground. Be careful. Might even be safer hang-dropping onto the pads where you climbed.

Got a few moves further with progressively worse hands. Could this be a V6?

Got the send! A fun little boulder that rewards those with fresh arms.

Still working out beta for the end. Sharp crimps and delicate feet make me think this might be a V5.

Glad to have flashed this?

Climbing here again and I think arête is out for feet. Using feet around arête means the crux devolves to “The Breach”. Arête out for feet is V4 I think. Arête in for feet is V3.

2nd go, super sandy.

Sweet climb. Make sure to clean out the sandy pocket first

Getting to the lip was easy but I didn't know how to mantle lol

Figured most of this out
