Really desperate crux at last bolt

Abseiled from third pitch anchor to bottom with two 70m ropes (tied together). Spared like 5 meters approximately.

I dunno. That last move? Use the arete and it's way under the grade. Stay to the line and it's a total sandbag. Is the 20 just an average of the two?

A confusing route and i left after the first pitch. The starting moves seem about 21 ish (compared to other routes at this crag) and the bolting means that any fall will be potentially dangerous. This is the first time i have used a cheater stick to clip the second bolt from the first. I'm not sure if a hold has broken or it was always like this, but not a very pleasant start. The rest of the pitch was pleasant, easy arete climbing, but quite run out. Cant say i recommend it.

Runout to bolt 3 spooked me.

Finally got to climb the last pitch. Bouderly move through the roof...just need to commit to the jug. Definitely felt the exposure!

Took me a while to get the last move

Hard moves, crimpy

Had to have a few goes at the crux. Awkward and strong move on tiny diagonal edge near the top. wasn't sure if I was meant to use the arete so went direct.

Direct line at final bolt felt impossible. Stick right and use arete to climb the 20.

I've done the first two pitches 3 times before this send. Attempted the third pitch but couldn't get my head around the overhang. The body was willing but the mind wasn't. Smooth ledges to place your hands on at this point which may have contributed to the mind game. Maybe next time???

Got up on top of the overhang but couldn't figure out the sequence from there. Tried a few times before claiming it as a project. I'll be back to claim you! Good rock and some thought to the moves.

Tough Start. After some deliberation, pulled through first move as it was getting late in the day (will still be a rough start next attempt), rest of the climb was straight forward and done clean, good Friday arvo multi! - Lead all

Very hard in the cold and wind.

Tough in the freezing cold and wind.

Led p1 (18) and p2 (12). I greased off hold after first clip. OK after that. Gus lead p3 (18). Sport.
