So sharp so hard but so good! Got it in sections, guess I’ll need visit the central coast again

23 Rather be Dead than Red - with Sean Gallagher Sport 10m, 4 Classic
Lee Ogley
The climbing up to the last move is excellent and also varied… slopers, crimps, and small feet. The final dyno to crimp is a bastard though.

18 ~19 Break a Piece for Me - with Sean Gallagher Sport 10m, 3 Average
Lee Ogley
The start is very spicy (and sharp) for the grade, but the rest is a walk, so I guess it’s close enough. Not that fun though…

Really good up until second bolt but no idea after then.

23 Rather be Dead than Red Sport 10m, 4 Good
Vanessa Wills
You definitely can’t finish out left. The anchors are straight up on a large block in front of the dead tree. The final move is the longest. Very height dependent and no chance of holding the dyno sloper for my height even with toe hooks in the heat today.

Rpt, another bouldery number, probably my favourite route, had to brush sand out of all the incuts

Bailed left like the description says, definitely not 25 this way but a nice climb still!

 
23 The Box - with Freya lamont Sport 15m, 9 Good
Cameron Lovell
Dropped the first move off the ground then pulled on again and climbed it clean to the top. Pretty dirty in the crack and as you get towards the top, well worth it despite that!

Dropped the onsight slapping nothingness over the top, as close as you can get I guess. Figured out the final dyno after a few tries. Not sure if it's meant to top out via the sketchy block and mud pile or traverse left to the nice anchors??

15 Grand Canyon - with Sean Gallagher Trad 10m Very Good
Lee Ogley
Great offwidth and a lot of fun. Used a 5 & 6 sized cam and kept bumping up. Note: have changed style to Trad. Yes there are ring anchors to clean, but the carrots to the right are for the 23. Not a Sport route.

Struggled a bit on this. Feet seem to run out as you move across the traverse.

A bit tricky getting to the last bolt then desperate finish.

Covered in moss, so more careful than usual for the grade considering there’s only room for one cam halfway up.

23 Hard Rather be Dead than Red - with Lee Ogley Sport 10m, 4 Very Good

Pretty easy to the middle until you get to the tough slopes then a wild dyno finish off a half decent sloper. Would be scary to commit on lead. Could be a classic with this type of finish.

21 Rumba - with Sean Gallagher Mixed trad 12m, 4 Very Good
Lee Ogley
Annoyed I didn’t get the Onsight, as I messed up the very end. Went next go. Possibly my favourite climb on this wall to date. If you want to use gear too, a Green cam behind left flake and Red cam at the very top under the roof.

 
14 Home improvements - with Sean Gallagher Trad 10m Good
Lee Ogley
Spicier than it looks from the ground, as it’s so dirty. Used the carrots over to the right to clean.

 
18 Arête left of bb - with Lee Ogley Sport 12m, 4 Good
Sean Gallagher
Couple cams down low to protect high first bolt. Terribly positioned anchors where you have to clean off the climb to the left so quite awkward. Needs ring bolts.

Awesome face climbing. Fun route. Used gear behind flake and at the top before the finish.

15 Grand Canyon - with Mitchell Legge Trad 10m

Inspected on arrival, unsure how this can be lead safely. The first bolt does nothing to help (too far away) and the others are also away from the climb itself. If anyone else has climbed this sport, would love to see how.

Although it’s dirty AF, this was a fun climb. Would be good to see more traffic on this. Note - anchors were a nightmare to put bolt plates on. Could really do with ring bolts.

Pretty cool climb especially the start. Absolutely shit carrot anchors at the top that are so shallow you can barely get bolt plates on.

Started on this route and ended up finishing above the 21/22 due to vegetation, wet cracks and sandy holds. A strong lead by Lee Ogley with one of the biggest run outs I've ever seen on a few tiny brassies and sandy AF holds. No bolts were used. Hectic!
