First pitch only. Pretty good, rock quality was OK. Found the belay ledge very uncomfortable.

Excellent climb with plenty of good pro and mega jugs. The first pitch is the money, but the whole thing is fantastic. Careful of rope drag on the first pitch, take plenty of long extenders.

FFA. First pitch was quite dreadful due to rock quality. Second pitch had much better rock and a goey move
	24	★ Everlasting Stars	Sport 33m, 15	Kaputar	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Mon 11th Dec 2017
I hated the start rock quality but the route grew on me, with good technical moves and increasing pump, spent about 15 minutes climbing up and down at 4 th bolt before committing and then somehow held on with lovely slab moves at end. Probably third ascent, so no chalk, and quite dirty and 4 crumbling holds I somehow stayed on

Would be classic if it wasn't Kaputar rock. Great varied climbing
	23	★★ Antipodean Tippler	Sport 30m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	James vilimaa	Sun 20th Aug 2017
Stick clip as the first two bolts are surrounded by choss.

Great moves
	22	★★ Slip, Slop, Slap - with Gee Buck, Geoff Tosio	Sport 20m, 4	Kaputar	★★★ Classic	Adrian Kladnig	Sun 2nd Oct 2016
Fantastic climbing with just the right number of FHs.
	V3	★★ Sli Fi - with Deon Heemskerk, Isaac Searant	Boulder 5m	Moonbi slabs	★★ Very Good	James vilimaa	Mon 19th Dec 2016
Slabby highball with the promise of being cheese grated. Good crimps and crystal pinches if you can find them and a final mantle move.
	22	★★ Sheer Tenacity (Fantini arete)	Sport 20m, 11	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Fri 30th Mar 2018
Nice technical arête.
	22	★ Tyrannosaurus flex	Sport	Waa Gorge		James vilimaa	Sun 9th Sep 2018
fantastic moves
	22	★★ Twenty step derailler	Sport 40m, 20	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Fri 7th Dec 2018
Good rock for this part of the wall, and a strong line. Best to avoid the semi hanging belay and do it as a long pitch
	22	★★ Sheer Tenacity - with Grace Mackie	Sport 20m, 11	Kaputar		Ben Hanley	Wed 26th Aug 2020
ended up finding this one pretty strenuous heading up the arete. got some serious left arm pump. cool moves through the middle section.
	22	★★ Sheer Tenacity - with Stephen Varney	Sport 20m, 11	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Mon 11th Jan 2021
An EOD lap. Though rather dirty and untrafficked, there is some great gnarly (and somewhat desperate) arete climbing on this. I had to try quite hard for the onsight.
	22	★★ Snuggles and the Dragon - with Ben Hope, Kyle, Clive	Mixed trad 30m, 5	Kaputar	★★★ Classic	Michael Moore	Sat 13th Jan 2024
Actually super fun after the not great rock quality in the first 2 meters
	22	★ No trachyte for old men - with Ben Hope, Kyle, Clive	Sport 30m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Michael Moore	Sat 13th Jan 2024
again, very good after the initial low band of meh quality rock

	21	★★ The Hippy Hippy Shake	Sport 18m, 4	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Nick Kaczorowski	Sat 25th Feb 2006
Kinda easy for the grade, but great moves and sparse bolting, if you make it to the top you don't need the wires.
	21	★★ Bolted route to right	Sport 15m	Kaputar	Average	Vanessa Wills	Tue 23rd Oct 2012
Not bad, but scary rock low down. A cam below 2nd bolt useful.
	21 21 R	★★ Pork Orgy	Mixed trad 15m, 1	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sun 14th Apr 2013
Hmmm, quite a few new bolts on this now. Still great technical climbing through some weird bulges and up a slab, but the notorious danger aspect of this climb is now gone. Reasonably sustained.
	21	★★ Bolted route to right - with Ili	Sport 15m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Ben Vincent	Sat 15th Jun 2013
	21	★★★ Micawber - with Richard Curtis	Trad 77m	Kaputar	★★★ Classic	Ben Vincent	Sun 7th Jun 2015
A very inspiring climb. This route has it all, and yes, pro just when you need it. The first pitch is sustained and absolutely golden. The second pitch is enjoyable climbing and allows you a bit of recovery from the first. Richard just cruised up the bloody route a silly amount of years after he did the first ascent.

Despite the name, it's not very stiff for the grade.
	21	★★ Adventures in Drongoland (Barley 3)	Trad 30m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Mon 25th Apr 2016
Did this with a trail rope and double trad rack. Was trying to get into primal scream, but didn't quite work.

A solid warm-up, sparse up top but its all there.

	21	★★★ Blood on the Moon - with carol lee	Trad 75m	Kaputar	★★★ Classic	Ben Vincent	Mon 22nd May 2017
Was a little intimidated about getting on this one but so stoked that we did. P1 - lead (clean). Best pitch I've done at Kaputar to date. Nice sporty slab to warm into the route, pro gets a little spaced above. The upper section and traverse are committing, exposed, gripping and memorable! Some damp holds at the end of the T added some extra spice. Added a cordelette to what looks like a historical collection at the first anchor. P2 and P3 - second (clean). A little bit of an anticlimax after P1. Nice lead by Caz up crack and straight through obvious goey line in buldge (which was also wet). With 60m twins Caz decided to link the last two P’s, finishing up an interesting techy little slab split by a finger crack.
	21	Ernest efforts	Sport 20m	Kaputar	★ Good	pete kehoe	Thu 1st Jun 2017
A pleasant surprise. Good moves, a bit grotty down low.
	21	Leaning off the edge	Sport 20m, 12	Kaputar	Don't Bother	Vanessa Wills	Sun 8th Apr 2018
Maybe I am just tired, but this line seems confused about its intent and doesn't climb well.
	21	★★ Caressing the Diamond Bird	Mixed trad 25m, 8	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Thu 7th Jun 2018
The crack in the middle is very nice. The start is a retro bolt of BGUTI, the finishing arête is tricky with no wear or chalk for clues
	21	★★★ Micawber - with Grace Mackie 1 21 42m lead by Ben Hanley 2 17 35m lead by Ben Hanley	Trad 77m	Kaputar	★★★ Mega Classic	Ben Hanley	Thu 27th Aug 2020
Absolutely mega first pitch! Felt a lot harder than some other 21's that I've done recently 😆 Onsighted both pitches on lead. P1- fairly straightforward climbing to start with until you hit the stemming corner. Managed to find a hands-free rest partway through which helped manage the calf-pump. Found it pretty tricky getting myself out of the corner to reach out to the hand-crack. Much more strenuous crack moving than I have done in a while but got much nicer the higher I went. I think my brain was tired after this pitch because I rigged one of my least comfortable bays ever... P2- pretty shitty pitch but required to top out, and pretty sure I was in the correct corner system. Quite vegetated and lots of friable rock. Breaking off 4 footholds in the first 5-10m certainly did not inspire much confidence.

	21	★★ The Hippy Hippy Shake - with big crew	Sport 18m, 4	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Michael Moore	Sat 23rd Apr 2022
Could do with some lower offs
	21	★★ The Hippy Hippy Shake	Sport 18m, 4	Kaputar		Mark Hoggard	Fri 28th Apr 2023
Beautiful balancy climbing up the arete in the setting sunshine. Didn't really have to pull on anything. Failed to carry up the trad rack so cleaned using the Slip, Slop, Slap anchors, which made for quite a bit of effort.
	21	★★★ Micawber - with Luke Hef	Trad 77m	Kaputar	★★★ Classic	nathaniel glavurdic	Sat 2nd Sep 2023
Led this in one pitch, really fun stemming most of the way, a small section swimming of amazing hand jams.
	21	★★★ Blood on the Moon - with Luke Hef	Trad 75m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	nathaniel glavurdic	Sun 3rd Sep 2023
Wow... talk about a heady climb, this one will keep your resume honest on the onsight! Absolutely stella climbing 👌... will have to come back for the full tick as we found lower off slings at the top of the first pitch, decided to taste test other things.

3 bolt start good, then gear fiddly, nice moves.
	20	★★ Revisited	Mixed trad 30m, 5	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Thu 10th May 2012
The bolts are nice, finished on BOTW anchors with a #3 cam and 0.75 cam for traverse
	20	★★ Clamp-down	Trad 30m	Kaputar	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Mon 10th May 2010
Scared most of the way.
	20	★★ Comic Crack	Trad 42m	Kaputar	Average	Vanessa Wills	Fri 4th May 2012
Pitch one only, to get into Steel Dance. Crappy rock low and dicey pro.
	20	★★ Borrowed Time	Trad 90m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Tue 23rd Oct 2012
Led P1 and P3. Dave P2. First pitch really good. Others OK, worth doing for sure.
	20	★★ Tigger (is Unbounced) - with Richard	Trad 93m	Kaputar	★★★ Classic	Ben Vincent	Wed 4th Dec 2013
A fantastic route with solid jams where you need them. The roof on the 1st pitch requires a tricky/committing mantle but a couple of cams below is good for morale. There's a runner fixed to a shrub at the first belay and some good pro to back it up. Three quarters up the 2nd is a chossy corner but you can navigate this without too much trouble. Top of the 3rd you can break left or follow the interesting obvious line which ends abruptly in an undercling, offering one last challenge to the climb
	20	★★ Malice Through the Looking Glass	Trad 30m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Fri 18th Apr 2014
Stellar technical stemming on the bottom half with thin, spaced and tricky to place gear (but not quite bad enough to be properly dangerous). Goes easier than it looks, and the hardest moves are on reasonable gear. Would be a borderline classic if you rap off at the top of the pillar (using The Orgasmotron 's anchors) rather than doing the loose off-width top half. If doing the top, bring BIG cams... I didn't, and it was a scary 12m runout.
	20	★★ Malice Through the Looking Glass	Trad 30m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Sat 21st Apr 2012
All these ticks from 2012 seem to have not been logged
	20	★ The Fifteen Per Cent Direct Start	Trad 10m	Kaputar	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Sat 21st Apr 2012
Ok for offwidth
	20	★ Bonzerland	Trad 25m	Kaputar	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Mon 13th Jun 2016
Stout warm up. Take small cams. Good direct start to primal scream
	20	★★ Lunge not	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Sun 16th Apr 2017
Another great not over bolted Barley classic. Gear to #3. Hard start.

	20	★★ Borrowed Time - with Taib 1 lead by Taib 2 lead by Taib 3 lead by Adrian	Trad 90m	Kaputar	★★★ Classic	Adrian Kladnig	Fri 1st Sep 2017
The stemming on the first pitch was just awesome. All round brilliant climbing.
	20	★★★ Beat on the Brat	Trad 25m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Fri 8th Dec 2017
A classic corner splitter from tips to offwidth
	20	★ Wondrous Beauty	Mixed trad 33m, 5	Kaputar	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Sun 1st Apr 2018
Pretty nice climbing up finger crack into dihedral. Someone had clearly launched up this hoping it was a sports route and bailed at the second bolt
	20	★★ The Blundstone Arete	Sport 25m	Kaputar	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Sun 15th Jul 2018
Do yourself and belayer a favour and aid the choss at the start to enjoy this route as the climbing is good above. Quite spicy bolting, interesting fin feature
	20	★★ Revisited - with Ben Hanley	Mixed trad 30m, 5	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Grace Mackie	Wed 19th Aug 2020
Pick of the day for me, can't go past a good arete! Lovely moves on good edges
	20	★★★ Beat on the Brat - with Grace Mackie	Trad 25m	Kaputar	★★★ Classic	Ben Hanley	Wed 26th Aug 2020
fun route up the obvious corner crack. thrutched my way up the bottom laybacking and smearing my feet on the dirty right wall. became much nicer once i could fit my hands into the crack at about half height. from there lots of face holds became available at it was fairly straight forward to the top.

	20	★★ Revisited - with Stephen Varney	Mixed trad 30m, 5	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Wed 13th Jan 2021
Alzheimer's Onsight! I had no idea I'd ever been on this route before (seconding Neil years ago). Pleasant low-angle arete-climbing with spaced bolts, and no pronounced crux. The lack of an anchor to get back down (or even easily rap off) is annoying.
	20	★★ Telapia - with Paul Frothy Thomson	Sport 10m, 3	Kaputar	★ Good	Stephen Varney	Fri 15th Jan 2021
There's quite a lot in this little climb. the lower part is trickier than it looks.
	20	★★ Tigger (is Unbounced) - with Stephen Varney	Trad 93m	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sat 16th Jan 2021
Lead both pitches. Some great moves (especially through the roof on P1, and the crack system immediately above) but just has so much crap rock on it that it's hard to just enjoy the climb. The start of P1 necessitates some caution.
	20	★★★ Beat on the Brat - with Clive, Krysten	Trad 25m	Kaputar	★★★ Mega Classic	Michael Moore	Mon 5th Apr 2021
Such a mega route, absolutely frothed it
	20	★ The Idle Rich - with Krysten, Ben	Mixed trad 25m, 4	Kaputar	Average	Michael Moore	Sun 11th Apr 2021
Climbing is alright, however the gear down low is sparse and the bolting is weird to say the least haha
	20	★★ Telapia - with Tayla Haynes, Krysten	Sport 10m, 3	Kaputar	★★ Very Good	Michael Moore	Sat 29th May 2021
Settin up tha top ropes
	20	★★ Telapia	Sport 10m, 3	Kaputar		Nathan Kenny	Thu 8th Jul 2021
Should’ve stick clipped the first bolt. Found it pretty hard
	20	★★★ Beat on the Brat	Trad 25m	Kaputar	★★★ Mega Classic	Nathan Kenny	Thu 8th Jul 2021
Awesome line. My crack climbing skills have a lot of room for improvement. Keen for more
	20	★ The Idle Rich - with Keyser	Mixed trad 25m, 4	Kaputar		Mark Hoggard	Fri 28th Apr 2023
Worthy of a star for the intense sequence up high. The carrot sticks out about an inch... Placed two bomber medium nuts from the jug to protect the last section. Barely made it!
