	10	★★ Highway to Hell - with Caeser	Sport 40m		John
This time upwards.
	18	★ Old Man of Oi P2 - with Caeser 2 18 20m Top rope	Sport 20m	★★★ Classic	John
Did P2 again. Fun.
	18	★ Stairway To Heaven - with Caeser	Sport 15m		John
	10	★★ Highway to Hell - with Caeser	Sport 40m		John
First time down climbing on lead.
	18	★ Old Man of Oi - with Caeser	Sport 40m	★★★ Classic	John
I found P1 heady, expecting feet and holds to snap, but none did. P2 is pretty awesome if you commit to the hand traverse out left and mantle. Position = 10/10

	17 ~16	★ I'm Lichen This - with Enya Schaefer	Sport 8m, 4	★★ Very Good	Jason Walker
Pretty easy for a 17, second agreed. Beautiful spot, good quality rock. Fun route.
	18 ~16	★ Stairway To Heaven	Sport 15m	★★ Very Good	Jason Walker
I felt it was very easy for grade 18, my second agreed. Certainly a better option of getting out than prussicing a fixed line!
	10	★★ Highway to Hell - with Enya Schaefer	Sport 40m	★★ Very Good	Jason Walker
We actually couldn't find the fixed lines to get down off of the dirty ledge. We rapped off a tree instead. It's certainly not much of a climb - but still a good adventure. The actual climb to get back to the base of Stairway to Heaven was good.

Broke two holds and had a bad fall to the ledge, for me probably not worth it

	20 Hard	★★★ Hippy Crab Slab - with Ryan L	Sport 30m, 17	★★ Very Good	Matt Hurley
Attempted in two pitches. Clean to the first belay (perplexing but fun “cruxy down-campus SLAB move”). Slipped moving onto the slab to the anchors.

	20	★ When the Shooting Starts the Looting Starts - with Justin Pang	Sport 7m	Average	James Harrington
Surprisingly punchy. Abit confusing where the intended line goes
	21	★★★ Double Smoked - with Justin Pang	Sport 15m	★★★ Classic	James Harrington
Second to climb out, still mega!
	23	★★ Inflation Station - with Justin Pang	Sport 24m	★★ Very Good	James Harrington
Solid! Tough one to read on the flash attempt. Cool line and movement! Going direct felt tricky, Will be back

	10	★★ Highway to Hell	Sport 40m	★★★ Mega Classic	Jarrah Turner
Wunderbar.
	18	★ Old Man of Oi	Sport 40m	★ Good	Jarrah Turner
Felt like homework at the end of the day.
	18	★ Old Man of Oi	Sport 40m	★ Good	James Hockey
Probably classic but at the end of a day with a decent sized pack and pack and less than stellar fitness it kind of felt like homework.
	10	★★ Highway to Hell	Sport 40m	★★★ Mega Classic	James Hockey
Sublime.
	21	★★★ Double Smoked	Sport 15m	★★ Very Good	James Hockey
Punted the dyno first attempt, through to the top second try. Much better rock than most of the cliffline.

Another great line at this gem of a crag.
	21	★★★ Double Smoked - with Fez, Drew Ivison	Sport 15m	★★★ Classic	James Harrington
The description isn’t far off. This is absolutely mega. An Illawarra classic. Amazing quality rock, outrageous moves above the void.
	22	★★ Boogie On The Balcony - with Fez, Drew Ivison	Sport 18m	★★ Very Good	James Harrington
Misread a few moves. Tricky!
	20	★★ Silly-Cosis - with Fez, Drew Ivison	Sport 23m	★★ Very Good	James Harrington
Really good. Solid warm up. Super varied climbing on great rock.
	18	★ Old Man of Oi - with Aaron Wong 1 18 20m lead by Laurie Bristow 2 18 20m lead by Aaron Wong	Sport 40m	Average	Laurie Bristow
Easy to get to the bottom. First pitch is pretty fun to a beautiful belay spot. Second pitch is average, the tree is in I reckon. Pretty chossy/dirty the whole way up.
	18	★ Old Man of Oi - with Laurie Bristow 1 18 20m lead by Laurie Bristow 2 20m lead by Aaron Wong	Sport 40m	Average	Aaron Wong
Pretty ordinary. Quite dirty and chossy in parts. Hauling the steep bit at the end was decent.

	22	★★ Boogie On The Balcony	Sport 18m	★★ Very Good	Mitchell Bloomfield
Excellent varied climbing, with that fantastic exposure. Fun boulder problems broken up by perfect rests. Definitely soft at the grade for taller people.

	20 19	★ Ernie Dingo In the Attic	Sport 8m	★ Good	Doug
Silly Dingo linkup. Way pumpier and steeper than Silly-cosis. Bit dirty. Where are the jugs?
	20	★★ Silly-Cosis	Sport 23m	★★ Very Good	Doug
Great movement. A bit of everything.
	22 23	★★ Inflation Station	Sport 24m	★★ Very Good	Doug
Quite punchy. Bit soggy at 23 unless you're meant to go uber-direct.
	22	★★ Finger Blaster	Sport 23m	★★ Very Good	Doug
Crack for breakfast.
	20	★ When the Shooting Starts the Looting Starts	Sport 7m	Average	Doug

	23	★★ Inflation Station - with Gino Lagazio	Sport 24m		Paige Strudwick
bit of a sandbag! but enjoyable once you figure out the crux
	21	★★★ Double Smoked	Sport 15m	★★★ Classic	Gino Lagazio
	22	★★ Boogie On The Balcony	Sport 18m		Gino Lagazio
I mixed this up with the other 22 and finished at the last single U-bolt, didnt finish up the slab at the start of the other route
	20	★★ Silly-Cosis	Sport 23m		Gino Lagazio
	23	★★ Inflation Station	Sport 24m	★ Good	Gino Lagazio
Took a while to find the holds and work the crux out, couldn't find a way to do the deadpoint that wasn't super low percentage. Stiff but cool

Fun boulder problem!
	21 22	★★ Now You're Cooking (Now Your Cooking) - with Jacques	Sport 15m	★ Good	Mike Lester
With the exception of the one boulder problem move to start, I think this is easier than Double Smoked.

3ish sits at the start to figure out the finger crack then smooth sailing with increasing pump to the finish
	20	★ When the Shooting Starts the Looting Starts	Sport 7m	★★ Very Good	I Skip Crux Holds
Fun and punchy, stay on the arete and don't go out right (is actually easier)
