Left wall | ||||||
18 | ★★ The Arete | 10m, 4 | ★★ Very Good | |||
yeah its prob good for this area, felt a little sandy, top out has some loose rock
good thing about this wall is that it stays dry when the rest of the crag is wet. the 21 and 25 are prob best in the rain, but would be quite hard to TRS.

Central Gully Central Gully Right Reaper Buttress | ||||||
22 | ★★★ Reaper - with Brendan Coulter | 40m | ||||
This is another awesome wall and great looking route, I just did the crux totally wrong and got in some positions that made it very difficult.
Also did it all in one pitch, clipping the pitons creates a lot of drag so some big slings are needed

21 | ★★★ Trinity Wall - with Brendan Coulter | 30m | ||||
This is an adventurous climb when you go the right way, so I’m sure I had a mega mission!!! Started up too high and went onto down climbing a 23, then back cleaned and started again. Then went through and onto the aftermath crux. Backed off that too and finished the route. Really cool, couple of super exposed moves on blind jams!!!

12 | ★ Up the Elephant's Rear - with Alexander Pokrassen | 6m | ||||
16 | Approach face - with Alexander Pokrassen | 6m, 1 | ||||
quite hard as it was light raining when we tried it, on small holds. also didn't want to top out on the slippery moss for an average climb.
- with the excessive amount of bolts on the top for anchors, surely a few more on some of the face climbs would be possible, otherwise leading a lot of these is just soloing and silly.
