Unusually soft, else being tall helped. Such good climbing, technical crux, very good gear. Highly recomended and worth repeating.

	18	★★ Some Like It Hot - with Aimée Chiat Hook	Trad 43m	★★ Very Good	Cormac Tooze
Pitch 1 felt hard for 17, placing gear awkward. I found the next pitch easier although it looks intimidating. A good climb worth doing/ repeating.

Another solid session. Couldn’t feel my fingers first go, quite essential to feel your fingers 😆 Damn cold in Winter here (go later in the day). Second attempt wanted to work out beta but ended up almost sending, messed up at the top. 3d attempt went for send but wrong footwork popped me off at the top 🙈 4th attempt I was pooped and useless haha 😂 Hardest route I’ve ever climbed, sustained 23! Fun day. Will be back soon. Only 4 routes left of my 20 23 challenge taking forever 😅

The Pass The Island
	19	★★ Casting Illusions	Sport 20m, 6	★★★ Mega Classic	Bruce McD
The same as the 18 only even more sustained and with a more out there finish! So so good, I'm calling it mega classic ! Just imagine one big slab of vertical rock with just the right number of little crimpy rails and divots to crank on and move through with style. I love how clean it feels there is no concern of a bad fall and the bolting (following rebolt, thanks to Andy) is super solid. You can't not love it
