Old school 16. Some thrutching, some foliage (but not too much) and some cool moves. Lead both pitches and exited left into the top of Brown Madonna. Beautiful after work adventure with a cloud inversion sunset below. What a place!

Lead the first pitch which was a bit damp and vegetated. Fell seconding the offwidth start to the second pitch. Second pitch follows a really cool (although a little unnerving) feature.

Bottom half was soggy. Gear didn't inspire confidence in shallow, wet, flaring placements. 2 nice jamb moves, then found the top section hard. Take an extra 0.5 next time. One fall at the top.

Didn’t have a good time on this today. Not sure if I’ve changed or the climb has since last time I did it. The large block down low that you want to stand on is very unsettling and vibrates/bounces with obvious detachment on a couple of sides. Can’t remember if this is new. Crag was crowded today so didn’t want to try too hard to remove it. Whatever the case, I struggled to pull the moves above this as well which I thought were ok last time.

Telopea: The stand out pitch. 3 stars I reckon. Steep and sustained with awkward (for me) crack sizes. Some mild shrubbery (hence the name) in the headwall crack added to the difficulties. A bit dissapointed to take a hang after nearly all the hard bits were done with.

Nice way to finish and top out. We split it into two as the rope got caught in a groove and the drag was horrible. | 120m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Very worthwhile. Full height routes like this, with no bolted belays and requiring some thought for the descent really adds to that "adventure in our backyard" feel. Reinforced for me how lucky we are to have this place so close. Route finding was obvious and the descent was easier to find than we were expecting. Which was lucky as we got back to our packs right on dark. Such a great day.
