Ascents in Main Wall

By myself with ascender. Yikes! Some sweet exposure, but a great lay-back crack! I'll be back with gear.

Bit scarey. God knows what is keeping this slab in place, so I was SS about falling on my gear & dislodging the whole thing onto Dave who was on the hangin belay below it. Other than that it's a nice trad line - one of 2 at the crag I think.

With preplaced first piece to avoid factor 2 on hanging belay. Sensational pro all the way. Massive exposure and varied climbing. A truly awesome line!

Great exposure for a 15. Nice flow when you don't have to place gear. More people should do this with a top belay just for the position.

Fun climb, amazing position.

Found this harder than other 20 at Tinnie

very, very thin. shares bolts with Rune of the Heretics

straight up the super thin centre = great

always a good smearing test

slanty by name santy by nature. used the arete on the left which is not part of the climb. fell all the way up

Did this on TR after Dave & I lead "Runes". getting that first bolt is scarey, otherwise thin.

so tenuous, so delicate and so very good

Wasn't game to try leading it given how hard I found runes. First half of the climb is crimpy-smeary ridiculousness, eases off towards the end. Definitely worth a shot. Had a few little slips while I was figuring out the technique, haven't tried much stuff like this before.

Even dirtier than last time. Did my bit to clean it by sliding down it a bunch of times.

Finally got this one clean 12.6.05 Dog Couldn't commit to the crux & tried several options before I had to rest on the gear. Then I committed & stuck the sequence. Ben belayed.

couple of great moves

loved it - I'll be back!

oooo would be very scary for me on lead. flat as a tack and that crux would be commiting. Shame is was slime city. We are still waiting on JJ to concur with a 17 grade. Not 16

Very slick today, given the recent rain. Made it quite sketchy for the grade. May have to confirm the grade in the dry, but I reckon 17.

On the lead list

fun little climb

some fun corner moves, lower-off, shadey

Finally got to lead this one. Hard for the grade. Some awkward moves.

Didn't realise how slippery the dried mossy stuff was until I tried to stand on it! Whups. Went ok other than that, fun climb.

kinda slippery with all the lichen on the wall, a challenge for a 16

Seems difficult for the grade. slanty and only small toe holes.

Challenging getting the feel of slab climbing again but fun.

A lot harder than I was expecting. Good fun though!

the climb was full of moss. Very hary to trust your feet. Cleaning as I was going up. Which made the climb a lot harder.

cool slabby

extremely wet & mossy, pulled up on rope & stick clip

damp moss,slippery

Absolute slime-fest, crimping on sheets of lichen and moss. Brought a whole new meaning to smearing feet.

A pretty good climb and would have been enjoyed as little more if the rock was completely dry. Thin in places, but very well protected. The crux is thought provoking.

A nice lead 12.6.05 TR This one was pretty straight forward, but the crux was rather committing. Glad to have gotten it clean first up.

solid rock, perfectly straight rope, clean, safe

great moves, it would be an exciting lead. followed JJ

Very nice. Technical & balancy, two rests.
