Ascents in Mid North Coast by Brendan Heywood

So good, didn't do the sketchy top out

Cool, got spanked at the roof then flailed a bit retreated

Fell on the last hold before the top ledge. The last moves are cool if you just climb straight to the anchor instead of getting into the ledge

Rapped down to whitewall to find something more achievable

Whoa - got to this cave and was inspired, was keen to have a thrash on a few of the hard routes here. Tried to warm up on this first and completely shut down and flashed pumped. High gravity / humidity day

Only had a couple shots got to second last hold. I seem to be developing a habit of trying things without pads or spotters. This line easily goes up maybe 8m and could conceivably link into the route project route above to the right

Did this and also a harder problem up the face just right of it

More or less warmed up on this but I suspect I wandered differently

Blew the onsight due to sand, got it second go

Mis-clipped second hanger without noticing and then noticed just AFTER the crux move!

My goal is to cleanly lead, chin up at lip, then cleanly unlead back to ground. Got to end and back to fourth bolt before I pumped out

I gotta stop bouldering and do things with more than 4 moves more!

Has one good move. Would be super staunch to eliminate the huge block on your left at the start

Never loses its charm

Ran a few laps on this it was so good
