Ascents in Koalasquatsy Wall having Beta

reeeeeeeach!

Bloody lovely climbing

fantastic. rock quality is questionable up the flake...

Bit adventurous. Couple of nuts at start & red cam up top. If you like carrots and dirty moss, this climb is for you.

Covered in crumbley black lichen. A hard 20 unless old-school slabbing is your jam.

Looks crap but climbs fantastically. Fun!

Arr Trad climbing

long and enjoyable

Climbed with trad gear pre-placed by Matt on his onsight. A great climb on solid rock that keeps giving. Fight the pump and keep going!

58008 is the only number i was ever interested in

Looks like a nothing route... its not, every move is thinky and enjoyable. Great fun.

ok. i imagine it's better with a bit of traffic, otherwise the runoff leaves it pretty dirty.

Clasic boulder start

Countless times I walked past this, never having the guts to try it....no regrets!

Good to come back to this and tick it after 1.5 years.

Got it first go putting the gear, amazing how a cold wind can change the friction on the crux crimps

incredible rock down low. those huecos...!

Sick climb, spicy crimpy crux sequence, followed by lovely climbing to the top.

Subtle like a Gummibär

prety hard crux in the crack

This is he hardest 23/24 i've done. Harder move than anything on serpentine which i did the next day!

Hard move at the grade, nice exciting finish too

Good fun on the crux!

Gassed out figuring out the beta from the underclings to the almost non existent pockets. Got it on my second go once the moves were dialed.

Place gear quick and find good rests!! Haven’t been that pumped in a while!!!!

Great finger crack at the top, blew the OS at the last move... Pumpy.

3rd shot, so close to the onsight slapping the finish jug.

Great route, did it years ago and was good to repeat again today.

Very Solid and a crux at the end that will throw you.

Mega route! Love it!

3rd lead. 2 stars for the super gym-like flowy climbing.

This route has a long history with me. I seen a picture of it in ROCK magazine a few years ago and wanted to climb it. In 2014, i had forgotten its name and location and we went looking for it at the Lost World. Today I sent it 3rd shot. Amazing rock, bit of trad and super varied climbing. Stellar route and a little dream come true.

Tough for the grade. The start felt desperate.

Was pumped out of my mind at the end of the flake on the onsight and couldnt move. 2nd shot cruised it, with the gear already in. Scary but not too hard traverse to first bolt then easy moves but super pumpy up the flake. Classic!

What a stellar line. One of my favorite. Got pumped mindless going into the flake on OS and took a decent Wipper trying to place some gear. Went alright next shot with all the gear in place. Just beautiful climbing!

Warmup

Just quick run on arete with camere

even the first pitch was hard. Seconded it as one pitch. Gear is actually quite good

Meh, so so

Felt very close, the arete is spectacular and the easy terrain super enjoyable after the crux start. We found belaying from bellow the ledge making an anchor can avoid some unwanted kicks in the head.

Hard moves for the first two bolts and then pretty cruisy. Only one go, need drier conditions for those slopers.

Retro flash to the last move. Such a cool route. cooked myself.

Freaking hard crux, more like 24/25.
