Mount Victoria Area Bardens Lookout Little Triggers Wall | ||||||
20 | ★★ Changes | 20m | ★ Good | |||
Pull kinda hard on little holds. Not as good as Low. Maybe an alzheimer's, not really sure.

23 | ★★★ Weak as I am - with Anthony Cuskelly | 22m, 13 | ★★★ Classic | |||
Onsight attempt, climbed soooo badly for the first few bolts, then went the wrong way up high and climbed myself into a corner. Got out, but too pumped to think.

23 | Back Hand Tosser | 12m | ★ Good | |||
Clipped the first bolt from the tree, then followed the arete while reaching across to clip the bolts. Was actually quite fun, and looked stupid contrived and ugly to not use the arete.

Felt more than a grade harder than 3 Buttocks. Really nice sequence small holds, but got pumped stupid.
|
||||||
22 | ★★ I've Got 3 Buttocks | 30m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Faffed around getting the third bolt on, but should have just been brave and climbed past, it's not that hard, and muuuuch nicer. Decently spaced and pumpy up higher. Quite cool and was proud to get the onsight, had to work for it.

25 | ★★ Padington | 12m | ★★ Very Good | |||
A fall and a few takes. The crimpy section isn't as hard as I expected, but will of course be harder on the link.
|
||||||
25 | ★★ Padington | 12m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Fell at the second bolt, seemed to work better matching on the poor crimps and keeping feet below instead of to the side.

|
||||||
25 | ★★★ Ashes to Ashes | 18m, 7 | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Very glad I got back on. Clean except for the dyno which I couldn't stick, and an exhausted fall at the top.
Pleased to read that it used to head out left at the blankness, which should be a much more reasonable for me. |
