John de Bont was very patient on belay whilst I scared myself silly on this, actually a rather nice line. I had wanted to do the classic 19 Auntie Jack, but this was taken with bloody TRers! grrrr. Now if John hadn't done a reverse sandbag on me with this climb, I might not have doged it at all.

	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains		Nick Murphy	Thu 1st Oct 2009
Its one climb but there'd have to be about 10 variants throughout it spread over the face of the route.

So a classic climb - the rock is polished like limestone in places
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Chad Harrison	Sat 1st Feb 2003
utterly pumped, should have been able to lead this one!

Varied, and tough. High left heel hook to get over first bulge, using sidepull at left.

	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Stephen Parker	Tue 1st Aug 2000
Couldn't work out the crux moves. Bailed and cleaned the route on rap.

Seconded Emilo
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Emma Carroll	Wed 16th Aug 2006
The first half is great, if only I could make the second!
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Phil Ward	Sat 13th Mar 2010
A reachy affair with some challenging slopers
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Rod Smith	Sun 18th Mar 2012
One fall. Nice route.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sat 19th May 2012
Disappointingly couldn't figure out the crux on my onsight attempt. Some funky moves that are hard for the grade. Run-out on easy ground at the start. The climb isn't as bad as I was making it out to be after blowing the o/s, but probably not as good as everyone seems to think. Holds are polished like limestone.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Rod Smith	Sat 18th May 2013
Two more tries. Why do I keep stuffing up the crux?
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sun 22nd Sep 2013
Great to get back on this and simply enjoy it from start to finish. Bloody hard at the grade (half the 22s at Shipley are easier than this), but worth the effort. A classic, despite what I might have said on my previous onsight attempt.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sun 28th Sep 2014
Repeat. Still bloody good, and still bloody hard at the grade. Very unique for the blueys with a hard crux. Slippery footers! This thing just oozes history.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Jason McCarthy	Mon 29th Sep 2014
Blew the onsight, getting crossed up. Clean 2nd shot, really cook old skool climbing.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Damien Ayers	Sat 7th Mar 2015
Brilliant climbing. Little bit steep.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	John Drake	Sun 28th Jun 2015
A great route with interesting and thought provoking climbing. Bring a few nuts and BD #1-2.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	John Drake	Sat 15th Aug 2015
Good stuff
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	John Drake	Sat 11th Jun 2016
Warm-up. A bit bumpy for a first climb
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Dan Theman	Sun 7th May 2017
Took me a bit to figure the crux out but eventually pulled through.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Scott Parker	Sun 14th Jan 2018
Good acrobatic crux
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Simon Ellis	Mon 21st May 2018
Brilliant steep pumpy climbing. Pump induced tunnel vision at the crux - and I missed the sequence and rested.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Ben Sanford	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Will Vidler	Sun 15th Jul 2018
Would be a nails onsight without chalk. Pretty funky stuff. Only one or two carrot plates needed, mostly fixed hangers.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Nikhilesh Sharma	Fri 20th Jul 2018
Lead on preplaced gear, don't really know which 'point' does that cunning tatic of turning a trad route into a sports style belongs to. Anyway. Tricky crux sequence, took a fall on it (not a new thing for me unfortunately/fortunately). But with The Sensei's beta got through it, bit of deceiving holds and chalk scene around there. Really good sequence of movements throughout, keeps you engaged and thinking. Definitely a three star route in my books.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Greer Knight, Adrian Kladnig, Max, rickau, Tim Ashelford, Shaleen Patel	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains		Match	Sat 4th Aug 2018
couldn't work out the crux bomber gear though.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Gee Rad	Wed 15th Aug 2018
Repeat
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Nikhilesh Sharma	Sun 18th Nov 2018
Always a pleasure. A classic, probably the best 20 (face climbing wise) I have ever done. Gear wise #0.3 cam, 11 size nut, 13 size nut (shit pro, no fall zone here mate, easy climbing though) and BD #1 cam between the hangers.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Joe Gordon	Thu 22nd Nov 2018
Gear was placed for me.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Francois Pieterse	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Bruno Alves Buzatto	Sat 12th Jan 2019
Bold lead! Enough placements for the run out bits (#2 is perfect for the middle), and some awesome moves, but a pretty hard onsight for the grade! It was quite a fight.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Sam	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains		Adrian Kladnig	Mon 7th Oct 2019
Rpt. So much fun.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Jean	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Blue Mountains Orangutan	Sun 3rd Nov 2019
Great route, really interesting moves.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	James Collins	Sat 7th Dec 2019
Very nice climbing. Found the “crux” relatively easy but fell higher up. Pumpy climbing!
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Andrew Rogers	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Leandro Scholz	Thu 29th Apr 2021
Set up a top rope by traversing from the anchor of The Obituary. Checked the gear and the rock will probably accept DMM walnuts #7, #9, BD Cams #.3 or #.4 and 1 or 2x #3. The plan is to lead this next time.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Marty Doolan	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Match	Sat 24th Jul 2021
Thought I onsited this turns out I had been on it before haha
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Gavin	Thu 26th Aug 2021
Classy moves and thought provoking gear. A great line. Unfortunately took a fall at the crux, as the sequence took some finding. Next time.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	I Skip Crux Holds	Tue 2nd Nov 2021
hard
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Juka	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Morgan Woods	Thu 30th Dec 2021
Some cams, some wires, some carrots and some fixed hangers so good mixed route I found the crux quite hard but did on the left using the small crimp edges and poor feet, right may be easier (?)
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Sean Peters	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains		Dean	Fri 3rd Jun 2022
Downclimbed the crux several times trying to figure it out (tried both left and right beta) before finally giving up the flash attempt. Left is the better beta but it requires committing to the crimp on the top of the flake to get the RF up to a smear and then the high LF. Unfortunately my fingers were visibly making all the smooth, critical holds on the flake wet with condensation and I could never quite commit to trusting the last crimp. Gear: medium wires, single rack + extra #1, bolt plates.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Cato Todd	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Nick Roach	Wed 22nd Jun 2022
Repeat. Misremembered what gear we'd need so endured a silly runout. Not especially smart for the third session climbing after breaking my ankle. Climbing in the sun was nice
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Leo Dalton	Sun 30th Oct 2022
Awesome mixed route, good protection where you need it. Good rest spots on either side of commiting moves.
	20 Hard	★★ Atomic Punk - with Neil S	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Peter Melouney	Sat 19th Nov 2022
Some good rest spots, crux requires a bit of commitment to pull through, but safe with a bolt there.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Reece, Dave, Avery Chen, Tayla Nankivell	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Riley Bradford	Mon 21st Nov 2022
Awesome!
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Thu 22nd Dec 2022
Rpt. Good climbing, though quite Sandy in places
	20 ~21	★★ Atomic Punk — 3 attempts	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains		Lachlan S	Thu 29th Dec 2022
Tough route, 3 attempts, stuck half way each time on a mantle? Ledge didn’t seem big enough. Couldn’t crack the move
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains		Hannah Kennedy	Thu 5th Jan 2023
Fell of at crux. The rest felt very fun and flowy
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with Jordi dunlop	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Michael Dunlop	Sat 5th Aug 2023
Every bit as classic as it was 35 years ago.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sam May	Sat 20th Jan 2024
Spoogey and strenuous. Went the wrong way,pumped out and backed off above the cam break.
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with dean	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains		Johnny Sullivan	Tue 23rd Jan 2024
Engaging but far less scary than Auntie Jack
	20	★★ Atomic Punk	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Gavin	Sat 27th Jan 2024
Felt good this time, but it really is a bit of an intense lead, the runouts are solid but safe
	20 ~21	★★ Atomic Punk - with Ev	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains	Average	Geoff Cooper	Sun 7th Apr 2024
Old bloke fingers not strong enough to pull the crux on this one. Seemed much harder than the grade
	20	★★ Atomic Punk - with joyu	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Blue Mountains		Eliezer	Sun 19th May 2024
Should have brought hexes up the first time. Hard climb
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tony Williams	Fri 25th Aug 2006
Great climb. Easier than Atomic Punk.
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Tony Williams	2006
Great addition. Good moves all the way.
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Mon 7th Jan 2008
Scary- had to climb on bundys wires.
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Jason Lammers	Tue 8th Jan 2008
Trad Dad - Rad climb.
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Phil Ward	Tue 23rd Nov 2010
Great arete climbing. Can be protected with a large hex if no #4 cam available.
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sat 19th May 2012
Really nice climbing, with only one desperate move at the grade. Otherwise, it is quite easy. Run out at the start, but well protected with minimal gear after that. Get on it.
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	Average	Nick Clow	Sun 29th Jul 2012
one hard and uninspiring move
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Boyd Robinson	Mon 21st Apr 2014
Different and balancy ok!
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains		Matthew Perrett	Sun 4th Jan 2015
Fun, easier then Atomic Punk.
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	John Drake	Sat 20th Jun 2015
Great fun- and well protected up high.
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Matt Short	Sat 24th Sep 2016
I have always overlooked this climb but it turns out it is well worth doing.
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Mike croker	Tue 10th Jul 2018
takes a good line that is easier than AP with only one hard move. The rock is not the best but it is still worth it if you have done AP
	21	★★ Oblivious - with mira	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains		Patrick Chambers	Sun 1st Aug 2021
Felt significantly easier than atomic punk
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	I Skip Crux Holds	Tue 2nd Nov 2021
easier than the 20
	21	★★ Oblivious	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains		scott	Sun 27th Nov 2022
easier than atomic punks
	21	★★ Oblivious - with Rak	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Blue Mountains		Jack Leerson	Tue 2nd Jan 2024
A sad hangdog - foot popped at the crux
	22	★ Oblivion Variant Start	Mixed trad 20m, 2	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Marcus Loane	Sun 3rd Dec 2006
I was attempting as per the guide book topo. Apparently (according to Mitch) this is completely wrong and the route is in a different spot. I almost made it to the arete with funky moves and would like to try again.

Oblivious doesn’t really differ much from this.
	14	★★ The Obituary	Trad 30m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Matt Tranter	Sat 11th Sep 2010
Trad at its best. Ran out of gear!
	14	★★ The Obituary	Trad 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	steven k	Tue 1st Mar 2005
jam, don't lay back
	14	★★ The Obituary	Trad 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Nathan Poole	2001
One of my first trad leads (out on my own) I think
	14	★★ The Obituary	Trad 30m	Blue Mountains	★ Good	mat palm	Sun 5th Jun 2005
fun
	14	★★ The Obituary	Trad 30m	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Chad Harrison	Sat 1st Feb 2003
nice corner line, bit dirty at top.
	14	★★ The Obituary	Trad 30m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Matthew Horan	2000
