Ascents in Halls Gap Area

had only one very half assed attempt at this

Dyno, cut feet first move (short person beta). Couldn't do the mantle to top out

If anyone knows how to do that mantle the V0 way I’m all ears

V0 yeah nah

Sketchy highball - turned back. Will go next time.

Could complete it from standing, starting with left hand side pull and right hand good edge (second hold of thank god the kids are gone) just couldn't link the start

Account opened - moves thru to 5th bolt - very cool route

Round 4 - clean from the "rest" x 2

One late go on toprope to see how it felt. Surprisingly comfortable so will come back to try and lead tomorrow

Couldn't get a stable position to place the draw at bolt 4, will rap down next time and pre place gear which should help get the send.

got up 2 bolts. Not strong enough to get to next bolt, work in progress

Owch my skin. Owch my pride. This did not go well

Didn’t love this one. Suuuuuper contrived as you can just climb the jam crack right next to it missing half of the route. Very fiddly gear up top but with time could make it work nicely I’m sure. Felt really hard so bailed upwards with a rope we conveniently had hanging up. Will come back if I’m desperate

Bolts are spaced, particularly near the top - benefits from having trad gear.

Couldn't figure out where this went in the top half and had a foothold snap so backed off.

Well after an hour I realised this is certainly not "my friend flipper"

Second time playing on the first couple bolts. Scares me a bit. Will have to keep my sights set on that lock! Cant wait for big send by angus smith, coming to a cinema or watchtower near you

Pleasant crimping, came down half way for lunch and a re-gassing

Nice 20ish climbing to the 4th bolt, but it sure gets hard from there! I suspect it's a high step rock in on average crimps, which seemed quite hard. It doesn't move onto juggs either. Fun though! Certainly going to have to give it another attempt.

well done molly haha, in my defence it started raining, but I still dont think id have pulled it off haha

Got totally shut done on this, couldn't make it past the 4th bolt. Guess I need to stop avoiding the slab at the gym

A great example of making a chocolate cake too dense. Weird and contrived

Feels very very fun. Just fell at the end of the crux. Spicy whip to the first bolt...decided to come back - should send next time. James made it look stylishly easy.

Got clean to the last bolt, feet feeling insecure and holds feeling reachy - I’ll come back for this one.

Crux move after 2nd draw is +2 grades harder for the vertically challenged

I didn't think it was worth ** Gnarly mono is no joke!

I think this one needs an R-rating? The top face has almost no protection. Had to bail out right halfway through the top half as the gear was crap and the climbing was hard! Haha

Got half way

Couldnt do it. Overhang to hard for me
