Beat this mighty line into submission with the power of kneebars. Still quite the pumper though, with all the moves feeling very consistent - no real cruxy moves. Thanks to Sandra for swooping in with that silky belay tick. Fifth shot total. This and four metres of madness make a nice pair of Coolum softies for my "first 28s". Great way to end my first Coolum trip, psyched for many more!

Dave with that high quality beta 😘 Only the vertically challenged would need to dyno at the end.
Certainly deserves more attention, awesome rock and sweet moves, but getting a draw on the 5th bolt (4th ring) looked intimidating. It could be clipped with a 60cm draw from a reasonable position below. An extra bolt in the crux would reduce the risk of ledge falls and undoubtedly make this more popular. |

Thought onsighting vigilante would be the highpoint of the day, but this may have topped it in a masochistic manner. I think there was maybe four actual holds on the whole route, the rest were what I would categorise as "holds", made useable through desperate creativity, fueled by a strong desire to not have to re-climb each preceding section that you desperately clawed your way through moments ago. The wet rock adds an intriguing element, especially when you are blindly searching for something to put your fingers to use on. Very different to other blue mountains "small-edge slab climbing" and totally a route I will recommend to my friends just so I can see them squirm with an all-too-familiar discomfort.

Sooooo good!!! Had a long rest and a bit of lunch before starting up this, and I was feeling quite jittery when I finally started. Got pumped pretty quickly in the overhang looking for the good holds and was relieved when I realised you could rest sitting on the stalactite - except my rope got stuck and I had to downclimb a bit to free it before I could rest.

Hung draws and thought we were on but the pump got me and I had to work the beta at the end. Forgot about the high heel. I'm quite happy with how I climbed it on the send - very quickly!

Spent a while trying hard beta on my first lap and then the moves went easily with a good left drop knee. Cruised on next lap, for sure not 25

I put on a show and made it look like I was going to fall every move through the elevator sequence. Final move that I was worried about was actually chill

Onsight fell apart pretty quickly. Went alright second shot. Punchy boulder and then cool, weird climbing to the top. Not too bad for 25

Love how non-stop the climbing is for the first four bolts. The jug rest really takes the sting out of the final moves. Stiff 24 or soft 25.

Thought this was better than la la land, and probably a bit easier too. Foot slipped at the first bulge to end the onsight early. Found some nice bump beta for the crux, but changed this to a nicer static beta after bumbling the second attempt. Very sweaty today. Strangely experienced some send jitters after the crux
