Was very confident but fell on the span again. Easy to bugger up!

Obviously tricky (pointless?) to grade a reach dependent crux, but for me at 175cm of reach, this is worth 27. Climbed in one pitch via Anaconda p1. If you like stop-start routes, this'll be your jam. [3]

Tried the dyno about 20 times. Latched the hold on a few occasions but didn't manage to control the swing. Ankles still sore. Onsighted the rest.

As part of Forked Tongue. That bolt is now something of a relic.

Done by many others previously as this is the obvious straight-up line of climbing. Well worth doing at this grade and gives a great introductory taste of proper Taipan climbing.

Tried very hard to onsight - failed. Fell on the span. It's less technical than the Groovy span, but about the same distance. I had so much crap hanging off my harness. A #4 rock and #1.5 cam will do it. Fingers crossed for Saturday.

The entrance exam to the main event is still pretty amazing in its own right. And you can open hand every RH hold, so perfect for a recovering finger injury. Six tries, and one shot 13 years ago.

This was probably the second ascent. No idea why it's not logged on theCrag. Lucky I have good old reliable 8a.nu as a backup.
