Last route of the day. Feet were so sore.

Took me an hour to work this one out. Great climb, very well protected.

 
23 The Shining - with Keyvan Mixed trad 20m, 2
ThorAss
Not wanting to face hospitalisation or worse, but still wanting to tackle this face, used a clipper to clip the 2nd bolt of DOE then finshed at its 3rd bolt. Probably about 18.

All sport. Finished at the 3rd bolt, couldn't face another climb up the central crack.

Classic You Yangs style, first 6 meters relying on a questionable 0.75 cam.

Basically no gear until the first half. Enjoyable top out.

17 ~20 Wicked Wanda - with Jet Winter Trad 15m Don't Bother
Karina Schofield
I would not attempt this climb on lead again. What the hell is up with the traverse to the right? The rope runs over a sharp edge below you, there seem to be no obvious holds, and the horizontal crack is actually a fused seam that you can't protect. I went up it thinking I might try the 21, but I wasn't even willing to do the 17. What it appears you need to do is mono crimp/pinch a crystal and mantle the upper slab with a high foot, but there's no way I am doing that with a rope severing flake threatening me below and no other protection.

 
23 Take a Hard Ride — 3 attempts - with Jet Winter Sport 10m, 3 Good
Karina Schofield
Pretty bouldery climb. Felt a bit like a tall V5. The first bolt is very low, so you might want to stick clip the second bolt as it's a bit of a risky sequence otherwise.

21 Hard Winter Solstice - with Jet Winter Mixed trad 18m, 3 Very Good
Karina Schofield
Second go. I found the elusive hold just above the first bolt right away this time, climbed a bit further to the left at the top than before, and sent it. Much more gracefully and in control, a lot less scared with the slightly different beta.

 
21 Hard Winter Solstice - with Jet Winter Mixed trad 18m, 3 Very Good
Karina Schofield
Terrifying as an onsight attempt. I completely froze near the third bolt after struggling to find holds, just staring blankly at the rock, feeling scared and slowly peeling off, but I snapped out of it. Forced myself to look around again, found a hold I missed, and topped out. Annoyingly, my slips were all just after clipping the first bolt, in the easier part, because I didn't see a good crimp above me. I didn't use a stick clip, placed a black totem and a yellow totem in the crack at the start instead.

Great little slab. Scary. Harder at the start

Short and hard. Screwed up the beta and pumped out one move from the jug

Best climb of the day, ugly off-width which has a nice fight to the top. Just different and nice compared to the crappy face climbing which is dominant in you yangs.
