Just to the first anchors which I'm told is 30ish? I Didn't do a move at the second bolt but I think I probably can manage it, then did everything up to the two move crux which I could barely touch, and then I fell off the lip turn a few times and came down. Totally totally mega, and the full route looks like the most insane piece of rock climbing, oh man! One for the dream list!

Been wanting to jump on this for years, and took the opportunity while the draws were still there. It did not disappoint. Incredible climbing and rock. Didn't quite make it to the top, but I'll be back. Well done Sasha!!

A really encouraging go. All sections done except one low move. I’m in love.

33 | ★★★ Moonshadow - with Mengdi | 20m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Classic | Sat 11th May 2019 | ||||
Still need some time to work on the beta.
The roof move for Levitation is not very friendly for shorter person like me, can't do it dynamically, so need to do a figure 4 to pass the crux, and definitely need to clip the second quickdraw for safety reason. Haven't figure out the the bouldering moves for Search and Destroy, but seems doable. Would definitely come back for it |

33 | ★★★ Tiger Cat - with Jett, Amy, Tom, j rock, Josh | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Mega Classic | Fri 9th Oct 2020 | ||||
Not an ideal route for fifth day on, but we will overcome! Didn't get super far, felt quite overwhelmed, was a full value experience. Psyched to have opened the account. 2021!

33 | ★★★ Tiger Cat - with Lewis, Harry Kadi, lee cossey, Andrea | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Mega Classic | Sun 18th Oct 2020 | ||||
Did all the moves and went to the top first go today in a mammoth 1.5 hour dogging bonanza (thanks Lewis for the monster belay!!) Super super super psyched but i think that managing the sequences has just made me realise how properly hard this thing actually is! It’s also the most mega though and i’m psyched to put some effort into it! Gotta get strong. (x2)

|||||||||
33 | ★★★ Tiger Cat - with Jett, Josh Mennell | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Mega Classic | Wed 11th Nov 2020 | ||||
Pulled on thrice today which was a pb. Linked the first boulder as a whole sequence on my first lap and re-did all the moves to the top, second lap I linked from below the first boulder to the cartoon crux which I tried to climb into but grabbed the draw. Tried new heel hook beta here which was rad, did the move a few times. Third lap tried for more links but was too smoked. Turns out being fifth day on is the money! (x3)

|||||||||
33 | ★★★ Tiger Cat - with Luke Hansen | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Mega Classic | Fri 20th Nov 2020 | ||||
Trying some new links today. Went from the knee bar to the jump at the end of the first crux twice and from the ground (kind of) into the first crux. Did some refinement on the cartoon crux and the linking sequence too. This route is still the radness. (x3)
|
|||||||||
33 | ★★★ Tiger Cat - with Jack, Liz Chong | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Mega Classic | Sun 22nd Nov 2020 | ||||
Headed down after Shipley. Sorted some new foot beta for the start of the Cartoon Crux, made some links, gradually getting better at the heel spins. Rad. (x2)
|
|||||||||
33 | ★★★ Tiger Cat - with Matt | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Mega Classic | Fri 27th Nov 2020 | ||||
By far my best effort yet. On my third go I went from the jug at the first bolt (skipping just the first move) all the way to the set up into the cartoon (main) crux but was gassed and couldn’t clip. Rad. Will need to invest in a knee pad probably and also hope for some non-sauna conditions. (x3)

33 | ★★★ Tiger Cat - with Jack, Liz Chong | 25m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Mega Classic | Mon 28th Dec 2020 | ||||
Nice to jump back on after almost exactly a month away. Grand connies before the storm, I did suck quite a bit though. No skin and sore muscles and maximum fear on the heel spins.

Two goes as there were queues on everything else. On the warm up the moves felt the easiest they ever have, but by the time I had my second go humidity had doubled from 35% to 70% and it all felt quite hard. Was brilliant to see Brad's brilliant fight to an awesome send. Strong Brad is reborn as Enduro Brad.

Had a play as the storm rolled in. Mega classic steep slabbing. Did all the moves up to the Brummel move (which I have done before) except for getting established on the flake, then came down. Wildly good.

Working that first crux move until skin stopped play.

32 | ★★ Alpha Leather - with Mengdi | 15m | Blue Mountains | ★★★ Classic | Sat 11th May 2019 | ||||
One more move to pass the crux, not too bad for the third session, should be able to send it next time I try.
It feels more like a V11 bouldering problem for me, I think the total moves are just a little bit more than life changes. As a boulderer, this one is so much easier to work on compare to Staring At The Sea. |
|||||||||
32 | ★★ Alpha Leather | 15m | Blue Mountains | ★★ Very Good | Sun 15th Dec 2019 | ||||

First attempt to sus out if the first section is somehow possible. My impression is a plain no. No feet, bad jams and wildly steep. So I'll leave this to some kind of mutan and I won't clean it further. This is the shortest and the least attractive part of the line and I'll just fix a rope and jumar up to section two which looks more in the grade 30 range followed by section three looking like gr26.

31 | ★★★ Mother Earth (Mother Earth Project) - with nathaniel glavurdic | 24m | Blue Mountains | Wed 14th Oct 2020 | |||||
Second try starting this time at the Section 2. Oh so much nicer than section 1, it climbs soooo well! There are 3-4 moves I have to figure out but looks definitely possible and not too painful for a finger crack. My guess is around grade 30 but could well be easier. Did section 3 to the roof, it felt like salsa dancing, this is a real gem possibly grade 25. Roof is probably approx gr22. Still need to solidify a rattly critical footwork and clean up some broken ironstone but it's getting there. I'm learning to trust the gear as it's mostly yellow Z4. WOW!
