Ascents in Mt Pilot

Fantastic climb!

Thrutched up the chimney to clip the first bolt and gain the ledge then looked up to find no more bolts. Bailed due to no pro.

Went back the next day to get the draw that we left to confirm no bolts - they must have been damaged/removed. Be aware if you are going to climb this!!

NIce moves, quite a hard exit

Enjoyable climb. Went to some bad holds first crack and went for a fly. Hung about and managed to work it out. Worth taking a BD .4 or .3 cam to protect the start.

Stitched it up clean on the second effort. Worth a visit if in the area.

Worked the moves at the crux and found a much easier sequence

couldn't get to the third bolt, took a few big whippers though!

Cool route, very long for Pilot, but obvious

Led by Ciaomhin

6m to a dodgy-looking bolt. 6m to a thin crack on forward-leaning slab. Up the crack. Nice climb.

larry led, simul 2nd w andy

if only it was steeper

Great Intro route. Even better now its been re-bolted. Much safer now (though still quite run-out) for the budding grade 10 leader.

Nice crack to start. Fell on the arete after a pebble blew. Unfortunately the 2nd carrot struggles to accept a bolt plate - take a 90-degree one. Worth doing!

Crack climbs well to start, then a gear shift to move up and onto the slab arete. The second carrot bolt needs a shave, struggled to force a bolt plate over it while leading, it would only take a 90. Great climb, but will need to fix that bolt next visit and give the moss a brush near the top.

Good Quality climb. Recommended for new climbers. Awesome gear placement on the crack. First bit until the first bolt can be tricky, but just make sure you trust that feet.

One of better climbs at Mt Pilot for beginners, offering easy access, quality rock and great views.

Done in two pitches because rope drag sucks. Bloody fun mini adventure

Done in 2 pitches because of shitty rope drag. I lead the first pitch, and the seconded the next pitch with no hands or shoes!

In Tassie we call that a hike. The crack is cool though.

Average with suspect rock in places.

Rock quality poor at base of climb, but improves at half way point. Many holds missing and a few more broke off during attempt making it much harder (grade now approx 24ish...?)

Very physical climb until the first bolt. Can be a bit intimidating. It would be better to do this climb if you feel confident on your strength and laybacking technique. Hard to communicate once you're at the top. Would recommend setting up a belay for seconding around 17m. Nice spot with plenty of gear placements. Can probably be upgraded to 17.

Spicy! If lacking confidence/ability recommend stick clipping the first hanger, which is about 5m off the deck. All the fun is in the first 8m then eases off. Nice climb and worth a visit.
