Ascents in Grey Wall

Great climbing with the the iron stone looking rock seams. Tree belay works well. Tree chains need to be replaced. Lower off was easily rigged on adjacent climbs.

Fairly solid and enjoyable.

Terrible rock to start off, can't say I'd do it again.

Definitely didn't feel like the 16 it was marked as, haha. Death blocks at the top seemed OK but YMMV.. Be careful!

Rather thin crux, couldn't pull it off clean. Good lead by Max.

Some "16". Very thin, very sustained - right to the end over the death blocks. I think I had less than 20,000 rests. But it did take me about 2hrs to second.

Bold lead by Max. Very well done matey.

Good lead by Hilton, good gear placements.

Couldn't manage the crux without a rest. 4.5hrs sleep just doesn't cut it. :-(

Good lead by Hilton.

Almost didn't make it clean! Tough exit.

Good lead by Daniel.

Based on the previous 2 routes we did here, both listed as "16", I felt confident I could lead this. Unfortunately..... it turned out to be a solid 16 & the arthritis was biting. Bailed at the 5th bolt. :-(

Brilliant rock, brilliant climbing. Easily the best, so far, at the Grey Wall. Nice confident lead Gen.

Lovely climbing over grippy rock.

Felt easier than Stigma so 14? Will take a few medium cams (0.75 to 2 or 3), although smaller gear placements can be found too. Good rock quality for Maroon 😂

This one felt spot on for a 16. Climbing is good but maybe a bit less fun than the 2 before?

These 3 climbs share an anchor which is placed above a bunch of solid-feeling detached boulders so... Whilst the anchor is safe, take care getting to it 😅

Fun one! Good placements to be found. Rock quality is mostly good. Feels a bit easier than a 16.
