28 | ★★★ Nether - with Will Vidler | 30m, 8 | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Why does this not get more traffic? It is utterly brilliant. A route I've wanted to try for a long time, and it didn't disappoint. Incredibly varied climbing up an aesthetic and intriguing line.
A slow exploratory lap trying to find holds (and scrub/chalk up the route), but it was all feeling "feasible" as a project until I reached the low-percentage mid-height crux. A taller person could span it, for me it's quite the hit-and-miss move at the moment. The upper section is beautiful as your truck left and up, and features only 4 bolts in the entire top half for some serious spice. I might spend some time on a simulator for the crux to make it a more likely move. It's worth the effort. |
|||||||
26 | ★★ Snake Flake - with Will Vidler | 25m, 4 | ★ Good | ||||
Note to Future Paul: Don't keep getting on this route, you always hate it!
The climbing is "generally" really cool (though, obviously, the crux is kinda a disgusting move), but it has the most hideous bolting I've experienced on Taipan, which is clearly designed to make the entire route (and in particular the crux) as unpleasant as possible. Could be salvaged with a RATIONAL rebolt (ie, some minor bolting adjustments and nice rings, not adding bolts). |

Climbed to the crux (with one silly slip), worked out the crux and grabbed the draw to clip (shit bolt position), had a quick hang and then onsighted from there to the just before the dyno where i promptly fell off.

AWESOME, awesome, awesome. A sublime line, which puts you in some of the best positions you've ever had in a 'single pitch sport climb'. I very much enjoyed it, although I did only use a fucking single rope without having the luxury of extendable draws or even roller biners. The rope drag was quite bad (felt like pulling up 20kg and was a bit frightening at the top combined with the rather spaced bolting. At least you save some weight with the few quickdraws. AMAZING!!!
