Ascents in Victoria as various tick types by Douglas Hockly

A great second ascent by Geordie minutes after the first. Good variety - a slippery seam, an awkward balancy crack, a weird traverse, crank through a roof and a headwall that can feel hard enough to be interesting if you're pumped - which I was. Good fun.

Really contrived in the first bit, but fun thin face climbing.

Vaguely remember climbing is not that hard but gear is not that good

Quite interesting, doesn't seem to have much gear, esp at the start which is the crux

10 laps training in my Become Adam Demmert programme. Having the plastic surgery next week - so excited! Conditions a bit warm, had to climb shirtless by the end.

Easy chossy start but the business is good rock and an interesting crux down low (if you're tall) and sustained up high.

I thought this was quite good - apart from being diagonal, the rock's pretty good (apart from the start) and the climbing's quite interesting.

As I was seconding I could go up the 'mossy slab' which is quite nice climbing and rock. Not recommended to lead as it has no gear, but I might put a few bolts in it. This improves the route as it's more direct and better climbing - I thought it was a pretty good two pitch route. Amazing old twisted pine on top.

It's a shame that the rock is not so great on this as it's a nice long pitch which is fairly sustained and ends up in a terrific position right on the top arete of the buttress. There is one pretty obvious loose block at about 8m to avoid. A good onsight lead by Wendy!

The start's quite good, then the rock quality falls away a bit. Take a few big cams if you want to climb the LH corner, fortunately the RH corner has good normal sized gear and ok climbing.

I would describe it as 'horiffically smooth', but hey. The initial groove looks like 24 and is at least 19 and then the bulge has a hard slopey topout. (this may be a new direct finish). Then a bit of a loose and blocky ramble to the top but the bottom is quite worthwhile and the most-not-16 route I have ever done.

Good climbing with some dodgy rock (gave it a good kick on second though) and some moss and dirt at the top. Great onsight lead by Wendy!

Might be 23. Great climbing on big holds, easier and better protected than Amok!

Amazing. Incredible. My whole life as a climber has culminated in this. At least today it did.

This is good! Needs a brush but nice rock and moves.

Awesome in the first half, the rest is much easier and some loose rock but wow the first half is amazing. Like a harder version of Toccata, and now has a rap station.

Quite fun in bottom half, then very mossy and easier

Quite fun and a good lead onsight by Wend.

Felt hard even on tr.

Pretty hard and would be a pretty goey lead. Interesting climbing for the first 10m or so.

Very short and bouldery at the start with no gear.

Probably better than the original

This is really quite good. Just toproped it, I think the gear would be quite tough to place on lead. Nice rock.

A good problem in the first half - I find the move to the roof strangely difficult to find a sequence for.

Nice!

Nice steady climbing. Take small cams. Might be 16? We're really not sure at these grades.

Good fun, three interesting sections

Typically bold, take microcams and be prepared to run it out. Super bunched on the crux.

I thought this was quite good. The rock's not perfect and it's quite bold - there is no gear for the crux and you'll hit a ledge, and maybe the ground later. The climbing is interesting though and varied and feels like a bit of an adventure.

and this seemed more like 20 with a tricky start if you're not short. Wish I was short.

Pre clipped the second bolt for the full Dougpoint.

While it feels like every hold will snap off and the gear is behind the holds I had a good wobble up this. I don't think the climbing's that great but it's an exciting adventure. Both Ben and I thought it was tricky for the grade, but we were both having a tired day.

Great climbing on the middle pitch.

This is really good - slabby start, interesting corner then a steep bulge with a crack.

This is really not good. Poor rock, poor gear, don't bother.

A small amount of ok rock, didn't seem worth a star

Remarkably good - great rock in first section, a bit contrived at the start (but that doesn't bother me), technical and good gear. The only thing I thought was odd was that there isn't good gear before the first bolt, and it's quite high up. Maybe another bolt would be a good idea? Nice 50m pitch.

Quite good but I like Fall of Man into Bishop better as a grade 11 linkup

A bit grubbly getting around the traverse, over the loose looking block and past the tree, but then I really enjoyed the top bit. It's in a great position.

Surprisingly OK, despite looking like a dirt filled rubbly corner

Really nice incuts. Seems more like 18 to me.

Really nice incut holds.

Great varied climbing on nearly all big holds

Great but a bit of a jug haul - liked the 23 more as it was more varied

Only dim memories but I think it was a bit scary at the start and hard after that

I found this quite technical and sustained - maybe it was just first route on a humid day

Easier if you're tall - one reachy move.
