It took me a while to like this climb as it all comes down to a single boulder problem with a reinforced hold, however the moves are actually frikkin awesome and the position is stellar. Possibly a little easier than Priapism. |

23 | ★★★ Hakea - with Anna | 40m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
Absolutely brilliant climb that has faded into obscurity. It required quite some cleaning of grass etc. but I left all the little shrubs as they're cool.
Due to my big fat hands I found this desperate even at 23, but Anna thought 22 with her wee mitts? Reminds me of Atlantis and Holiday in Cambodia, but better, much harder and way more sustained. |

Better and harder than Expendable Youth not all that sustained. I thought I was trying a 28 but it would make sense at 27 on a better conditions day. I also never found your kneebar Claudio! Take a #1 c4. |

Rad day out!
The climbing was a touch dirty in places but that's expected as this is an epic place. The 26 pitch was great, the boulder problem in the corner felt hard but I'm a bit out of shape. Solved with granite squirm style! A knee pad would change things. There where a couple of spots where clipping was difficult, pre equip for sure. The desperate and scary mantle got easier as I pulled a minger off leaving a positive slot. |

The start is rad and the corner is a cool feature. The top face is crusty and a bit meh though.
I went to the top of the cliff and needed around 21 draws (I ran out). Highly recommend finishing at the midway Supernaut anchor. |
