Most of the climb is spent trying not to climb malignant mushroom, staying on average rock. The last 6m of climbing on the arete is very good however.

30 | ★★ Freedom - with Rosie | 25m | ★★ Very Good | |||
5 sessions in total.
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. |

What an awesome route.
29/30, 7 days in total, had to cycle up the mount for this. I thought it was pretty difficult compared to other 8a aretes. Really tenuous balance of body position and power. Nice one Gaz! |

Really good moves on this, difficult to onsight! Deserves more attention and not as dirty / crusty / broken as some of the other arete's at the Lost world.
Mossy ramp at top, I left an access rope to pull over with. Shit placement of 3rd bolt, I put a long (100cm) draw on it. Cleaned up and ready to go Dec 17. Access finger crack looks tricky and is well dirty. Never climbed? I'll clean it up properly next time. |
