Ascents in Queen's Country

Hole and pocket bit sandy.

Top out is cool.

Right hand pocket is hard. Top out is super mossy.

Top out is way too mossy.

Brushed away a bit of grit and finally cracked it.

Gritty layback then tenous slopey mantle - good times!

Good clean fun

Desperate momemts on the thin ironstone top out mantle the first time. A classic kind of gym problem you would not normally find on natural rock.

Much easier with a knee bar to stabilise then a high-step out

Knee bar again.

All easy street

Short but fun moves on big jugs

My favourite problem in Queen's Country! Fun moves and a top out that was a bit scary to commit to because I was bouldering alone but I got it! Awesome feeling!

The whole problem is fairly easy and the mantle only feels harder then the rest because it's a scary topout especially when all the holds are still dirty!

Awesome problem! Best one I've tried in Queen's Country! After spending all afternoon working it finally got to the good slopey holds and then just couldn't commit to the dirty footholds for the top out and pumped out and fell instead

Fantastic traverse! May be easier for someone who is shorter (under 6'3") and has smaller hands but for me it felt like a V4 so that's what I'm going with

3 attempts and 3 broken holds! Is it even worth it?

Easy little problem

Fun enough short little arete problem

Nice, easy V0.

Fantastic traverse, harder and better than I originally thought. Maybe easier for someone who doesnt have hubcaps for hands and can match hands in the pockets. Far more technical than I originally thought it would be...Still a work in progress...

Good fun problem. Short but probably feels around V2.

Gave it a couple of attempts, seems bloody hard! Good work James on the first ascent!

Great climb, short and steep with hard moves on less than excellent holds.

My first ever first ascent!

The easier sit start

Pretty average short problem

Easy fun jug hauling
