Great climbing, and quite sustained. It is quite hard for the grade, will definitely have to make use of the rest after the first crux, cause it's not over yet!
	23 Easy	★★ High On Crack - with Adam Brygula, Sarah Anne	Sport 19m, 12	★★ Very Good	Michael Wilson
It's mostly chill, enjoyable climbing, save for a few moves around the middle, which are definitely cruxy! Happy to return and try this one again.

Not sure if we went off route, it's hard to tell from the route description and topo. But what we did wasn't any fun and it looked like things weren't going to improve. So gave up and turned around.

Tianjara Falls Drop bear wall
	23	★★ Roo Rot	Sport 22m, 14		Dmitry Linkov
Mega climb with lots of thin technical sequences. Was climbing well until below the top crux. Could rest and recover very well but then failed to find any workable sequence. Even after pulling on draw and working the sequence on top rope I couldn’t unlock any beta that goes at 23. I could vaguely see how it can be done but it’d be a 25 move for me.

Thuggy climb! It’s immediately very high tension moves, with a couple gnarly pockets - 3 & 2 fingers (for me) in succession. They’re pretty deep, but scary to potentially fall on.
