22 Hard | ★★ Play With Madness — 2 attempts | 56m, 5 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Sensational. One of the best low 20s trad lines in that blueys.
All pitches felt pretty similar to me, maybe harder than 22. Flash pump got me on pitch one so lowered down and went again.
Definitely worth getting on.

Could do with anchor on right then a good extension if scrubbed. Plus a bolt shuffle for 2x below anchor and would be alot nicer. Crux is putting draws on.

27 26 | ★★ Angiotensin - with Luke Yerbury | 15m | ★★★ Classic | ||||
3 shots. Came here today fairly optimistic of a send (or at least a good showing) only to struggle quite a bit with the final headwall. The start was definitely a bit damp, but the rest was fine despite the weather. Left my draws on it, though, as it's so radical it deserves some more efforts.
Still, even if I'm struggling with a high-gravity day, was radical to hold the ropes (and scream and shout) as Luke crushed the route on a super-unlikely 3rd lap of the day. |
|||||||
27 26 | ★★ Angiotensin - with Paul Frothy Thomson | 15m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Surprised to get to the kneebar on the "warm-up", then got enough back to manage a highpoint going for the right hand crimp.
|
|||||||
27 26 | ★★ Angiotensin - with Paul Frothy Thomson | 15m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Slipped off the soggy right hand start hold - classic! Dried it then lowered, and just about matched the highpoint, right foot slipped when gaining the right hand crimp.
|
|||||||
27 26 | ★★ Angiotensin - with Paul Frothy Thomson | 15m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
After another requisite slip off the wet right hand I had accepted defeat for the day and figured I would need another session. Dried and lowered again and somehow managed to juust hold it together in quite a few spots. Even dropped into a 3 finger drag on the crux right hand crimp. Charrr! Thanks for the belay and psyche Mr Froth!

25 | ★★ Hornblower - with Michael Moore, Heath Black, Stephen Varney, David Dearnley | 12m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Flashed to the anchor clipping hold, but couldn't clip the anchor despite hanging on it for ages. Was too frustrated to go up again.
Essentially, this is grade 24 to the clipping hold, or grade 26 to clip the anchor. Up to the clipping hold, this is a really fun route (thuggy, juggy, and steep!), but the nails anchor clip, and the fact it finishes in the middle of nowhere, is a bit dissappointing. |
|||||||
27 26 | ★★ Angiotensin - with Michael Moore, David Dearnley, Heath Black, Stephen Varney | 15m | ★★★ Classic | ||||
3 shots. The last EOD effort ended at the final bolt. This thing is all class. Sure, it's a bit sharp, but the line and the moves more than make up for it. The opening boulder is tough but funky, and the runout headwall finale is an appropriate bookend. I'll definitely be back.

23 | ★★ Defibrillator - with Heath Black, Michael Moore, Stephen Varney, David Dearnley | 15m | ★ Good | ||||
23 going on 21? Even in alpine, frozen-finger conditions and absent chalk, this seemed quite easy. Short but pleasant face-climbing with a few thin moves.

Did all the moves, nothing too difficult off the rope, but you quickly put together a big pump!
|

27 26 | ★★ Angiotensin - with Matt King | 15m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
