Begehungen in Oceania als Onsight von Zhangter P

Nice warm up

Thought I'd warm up on this... Was pretty tough with minimal feet. Flash pump!

Really cool movements. Thought the sit was going to be a breeze...

One move wonder. Trust the smears

First ever mixed climb. What an adventure. Even the walk in along Queens Drive got me nervous. Crux at first pitch where it gets narrow but with solid ice over the bulge. 2nd pitch was pretty straight forward until a step section that had thin ice on a face. Third pitch was just run out for a good 20m before the last mantle. The belay for the part pitch was an anchor using the ice axes along with a body belay. Good times

Amazing technical climbing! Long enough to have a good time

Cool adventure up first pitch and interesting traverse. It was definitely not like Gibraltar Rock, small face crimpy edges instead. I'm getting soft but was harder than I expected.

The first pitch was a bit awkward with the vegetation. The start of the second pitch was the highlight with the twin cracks and the exposure on the detached flake. The "finger crack" on the start of the 3rd pitch was short and bouldery leading to endless slabs! Don't get deceived by the "3" pitches. There's another pitch or so of slab before you can put on your sneakers to scoot up to the summit.

Super awesome aid climbing where high stepping into sky hooks were required!

Short but fun. Positive holds with small footers

Cool moves up to flake and some technical moves to top out

Some jamming made this one easier

Found the start harder than Chariots. Pretty average.

Cool feature with good holds

Was using it to get out from the base of the pyramid after our swim. Top roped in tennies. Small positive holds throughout

Amazing climb with heaps of jamming. Shame it's short.

Juggy after the face

No gear until the crack

What we thought was the 2nd pitch of Long Time Coming... Turned out to be much harder than the grade 20 we thought we were on! Delicate slabby tai chi moves past 4 bolts before a crux at the end to gain the overlap where you can plug in some cams.

Solid at the grade with crux at the end. Might be tricky for shorter people. Really fun climbing and well protected 1st pitch. 2nd pitch is a scramble. Approached the bottom of the climb from the higher terrace.

Harder than I expected. Recommend to walk down gully on left of climb or tree. Don't use mallion as your rope will get stuck.

Nice and short. Crux at the end.

Amazing first pitch with a sick belay ledge. Second and third pitch were pretty ordinary. Rock was pretty solid. Instead of traversing the lip of the roof for the second pitch, we climbed up the enclosed corner up to the huge terrace. Worth it just for the first pitch!

Such a good climb!

All time crack! One of the best cracks I've done for a long time. Long enough to be sustained. Screw Sundance Crack =P. Starts at #0.4 and and gets bigger up to #1 at the top

Found this harder than 14, i was probably doing something wrong. Not many holds.

Protected the fake with a small nut

Solid at the grade. Laced the flake with nuts

Awesome fun with some offwidth and jamming action!

Saw this on the way to the Pork Crackle area. Interesting traverse section on finger sized crack before moving to do some suspect holds on the vertical crack.

Really enjoyed this one! Super fun on small gear

What an amazing climb! So varied and each pitch completely different and memorable. The climb is in the shade all day except for the last pitch so make sure you bring a jacket!

Pitch 1 - Thin crimps on small edges. Quite balancey. Guide said to clip the first bolt of P2 before the belay but found it was too much rope drag. Instead used a #3 placement in crack on ground just before the belay. Brought 2x #2 and 2x #3 which was useful along with a small cam for the end of the first sickle.

Pitch 2 - The boulder traverse Slopey feet whilst traversing on crimps, crux was the move at the end of the traverse and transitioning to the vertical crack. Used 1x #2 to protect the crack.

Pitch 3 - The aid pitch Layback corner to a #3 then a #2 useful just below the aid bolts. Brought 60cm slings. Still found it little bit reachy and strenuous to reach the next bolt. The delicate slab climbing to finish

Pitch 4 - The get out of here pitch Nothing too special, a bit run out and thin and shallow crack for protection. Used tiny nuts.

Really cool moves through the traverse!

Pretty cool bouldery first moves to gain the first bolt! What out for the 2 wasp nests on the climb to the left!

Awesome climb! Such a beautiful corner crack. Starts as tight hands and gets wide to fists.

Beautiful line. Found the guidebook description and topo confusing. Found it harder than 15 but maybe I went off route?

Really good climbing on large holds and underclings!

Super fun, technical and balancey

Nice warm up but scary high top

Fun warm up!

Nice warm up before the main event next door! I really enjoyed it, perfect hands!

After completing the direct & direct through tree, we finally got into the main crack system! We did it in 7 pitches! P1. 30m belayed above tree P2. 30m once above tree, traverse on slab to gain right crack system, P3. 30m follow crack through wide section and belayed below bulge P4. 40m followed crack towards chimney and go through chimney P5. 40m up corner, into offwidth and then fridge hugging to ledge P6. Up the right trending crack on the right of the ledge to gain next ledge P7. Can go up dyke jug ladder but we decided to go through the hand crack up top P8. Go around the left of the wall in front of you and scramble over some boulders and down into Burstons Crevasse. So glad we brought the #5 and multiple #4 cams!

Stupidity resulted in not looking 1m left so we ended up doing the direct, down climb, then went up the direct direct through tree (literally) and did the same death traverse as per direct with scary run out to link back to original climb after a late discovery by Sam mid death traverse

Awesome features! Used a sling between 1st and 2nd bolt

One of the best climbs I've ever done! Super varied! We did it as the sun was setting and it was amazing!

First climb at Mt Buffalo and it was awesome! Super cool first pitch with little rooflets, amazing traverse on 2nd pitch, interesting 3rd with a scary solo slab section at the end! We brought 3 x #4 and I'm glad I did

Pretty classic climbing.

Awesome climbing with large spans between jugs! Committing.

I aided through tough start... We built a cairn high enough to place some gear on the roof. Then followed the cracks and hand jams up to 1st rooflet. Ended up setting up a belay to reduce rope drag before pulling over the roof onto the easy face. I got the bottom of "Handjob" beneath the bolt and traversed left and up the detached block.

Great climb! Got pumpy with crux towards the end
