always a good day out on the wall!! only a few pitches up and then called it but got Chloe back on the cliff and absiel practice.
(for anyone else, first 3.5 pitches are all sport, bring 12 draws if you wanna link P2 & P3, couple of extenders too.

20 | ★★ No Time for Dreaming - with Ella | 140m, 35 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
chucked a lap to take Ella up this classic. lead p1, p3, p4.
good day out with some unexpected mental challenges to get me working harder than anticipated. p1: too wet. one stick clip and every draw pulled on, but managed to survive without a fall. p2: was dry, no issues here, cruisy onsight by Big E. p3: the tricky sequence at the beginning was thankfully was dry. however the easy groove had become a river and was giving me a run for my money. despite my hesitation, managed it clean p4: harder lead than I was expecting after my second last time. crux and last bit test you mentally. p5: just as good the second time, nice work leading it E |

this is the variant everyone does. do not know how people stay on the wall with that amount of slipperiness. i really tried but had to hold a draw instead of falling down the slab so not clean. would have tried it again if it wasn't going to be soo hot an hour later and still had more to send.

did the Gobber head variant, which is worth it, but damn that slab is slippery! theres undercling wives to start which is cool and then some very technical, small slabby moves to some thin holds, then finish easy. will do it again another day in the future, with very grippy shoes

this pitch is an insane finish to a great start to the weekend. Lots of pump up the steep crack to a glory finish. LOVED it, and a sensational view of Blowering at the top!! | 40m, 35 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
bloody good climb, started real early because of the heat and still finished around Lunch time. amazing effort from Khush, biggest multi he's done so far

Bit of a bummer, faffed around and placed two decent cams (.5, .75) in the horizontal crack above the bulge then somehow lacked the courage to trust them enough to continue. After a quick hang the move went straight away after I could trust my almost definitely sub optimal cam placements. The rest of the pitch fell together soon after. Used a ridiculous amount of draws. 11 all up and three cams. Extending the bottom few helped with drag. My gonad circumference was depleted by the nice techy slab just before the anchors of this pitch. Fire.

Amazing, amazing climbing. Nothing quite like an incredible moderate face 100m in the air, especially when it backs onto a waterfall. One of the most aesthetic pitches I've done 11/10. Climbs superbly on nice sidepulls, a few crimps and cracks and a heap of jugs. Awesome. | 140m, 35 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Amazing day out, pretty spicy in the heat so make sure to pack a heap of water. Pitches 1-3 were good but 4-5 were unreal. Stellar, extremely varied climbing. Bring nice comfy shoes and a heap of water and you're in for a treat! Whole route is very, very well bolted, a 70M rope was the perfect length, any less would be doable but much more effort.

20 | ★★ Gobber Head - with Nathan Miles | 40m, 11 | |||||
We accidently went up this while climbing 'NTFD' The moves and features are cool and the moves around the flake before the slab are sick. The top half felt ridiculously hard in the direct sun.
Nathan lead up to the bolt under the tree then gave up. I gave it a go and got stuck in the same spot. I then back-jumped the whole pitch and checked the phone to discover we were going the wrong way. |

the crux is has quite interesting movement through the corner and bulge, definitely recommend putting some pro in here. last section up the (mostly blank) 45° slab was spooky in the heat but awesome

Most fun pitch on the route for me as I'm not the best at slabs. Sweet jugs and no real dead-zone the whole way up. I mantled the ledge by rolling onto my side then sat up facing out from the wall and was delivered a fantastic view. | 140m, 35 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Pitches 4&5 are top shelf. amazing scenery behind. sun was really cooking in the early afternoon, the toesies were not having the greatest time.

20 | ★★ No Time for Dreaming - with Keyser, Bridget, Sia | 140m, 35 | |||||
Fabulous adventure with stunning views - first physio-approved outing for the rotator cuff! Forecast was for 36°C, so we set off at 5.30 am and were finished before the sun hit the crag. Climbed the first three pitches in two pairs, before Bridget and Sia headed back down and Shubh led the rest to the top. First three are slabby with some technical footwork in places. This section clearly gets a lot of water in rain, so the granite is polished to soapy smooth. After that, the route really changes character. P4 has a tricky crux over a bulge that took two attempts. P5 was really impressive! Felt like an unlikely journey into the unknown, but the features are excellent and the bolting spot on. Was pleased that the shoulder stood up to some rough treatment, but had to rest a couple of times between burly bursts. Had a minor issue rapping down P4 with a folded 60 m - it leaves you ~5 m short but with a pretty safe down-climb. In terms of gear, the bolting is generally excellent and there is really only one spot where you could have a nasty fall and that's at the crux on P4. Luckily, there are really good options here for a smallish cam (we used a DMM Dragon #1) or medium nut. The rest is run out in places, but not dangerous and anyone competent at grade 16 slab likely won't need anything else on their rack. I did use a few extenders to link P2 into P3. And P4 has 11 bolts (in addition to the cam), so take a full set of draws. Overall, this is a fantastic and well thought-out route not to be missed if you're in the area (unless there has been lots of rain). Cheers to the FAs for their efforts!

Classic slab and finger crack, get on it! Definitely the better pitch 4. Toe hooks, slippery rock, dime edges and sweaty fingertips, this has it all, all the while trying to clip a bolt 2m above the last bolt in the middle of a slab crux. Tricky onsight but pure awesomeness and want to send.

Absolute Classic! Awesome adventure. First 3 pitches are super fun slab, with 4 turning the slab up a notch and 5 being face and slightly overhung. Had to wait for the rock to dry. Slipped on the slab on pitch 4 due to overconfidence, this rock is slippery! Surfed and slid down the slab on my feet until I could catch the rope. The flaring crack at the top was wet, nothing a bit of determination couldn't sort out. Unreal backdrop, would do again.

20 | ★★ Gobber Head - with Tahni | 40m, 11 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Did a variation of this line by traversing into the corner and following the crack system to the right once past the slab crux. Doing the entire slab would be very sustained.
|
|||||||
20 | ★★ No Time for Dreaming - with Tahni | 140m, 35 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
A seriously underrated route with a really spectacular backdrop. Aided the crux move on the final pitch to avoid any risk of a ledge fall while clipping from a wet crack. The granite is vaguely reminiscent of Freycinct but more polished. The first 3 pitches aren't a bad warm-up while the last two are as good as it comes in terms of freeblast-like slabbing and jamming. The right hand variant of the 4th pitch, in particular, is very sustained with interesting moves that don't let up for a solid 40m. Surprisingly little choss for a route not too well trafficked yet. Get on it!

20 | ★★ No Time for Dreaming | 140m, 35 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Great route, bought up a full trad rack up to size 3, very uneccesary lots of bolts. There's room for a .75 and 1 on the 19 pitch. The 19 seemed harder than the 20 however I slipped off the wetness on the last pitch. The first 3 pitches seemed much shorter than the description and links could easily be made. Really fun climbing on good rock.

V4 | FA ★★ Nordic Biker Feud | 4m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Great line, I'd have given it three stars if I thought the holds were going to stay on. Steepish crimping followed by a slappy lip encounter. May have been done before, there was a bit of loose stuff on it, but it cleaned up well and the remaining holds feel solid, I guess until it gets a few more frosts / snowfalls. Great and unexpected random roadside ascent.

A nice climb, lead the first three, a cheeky aid on the fourth and then was pretty burnt out. In reality the top pitch was too wet, but gave it a crack aiding anyway. Had to call it just short as I had nothing left - a great day out!
