Ascents of Daddy Crack

Good but a hard move at the finish that might surprise the grade 21 leader. Definitely a worthy addition to the Sydney trad tick-list.

Great trad line! Balancy and a bit technical.. 2 cruxes.. I think I added a third by starting from the ledge under the belay rings.

One of my favourites at the grade

Loved this route, Made it right to the tippy top and popped off at the mantle on the OS attempt

A hidden gem for the connoisseurs.

The bold and beautiful Hazel Findlay reckons splitters can get quite boring and repetitious; whatever she says I always take on board, I wonder why.

And this Daddy has it all. Fist jams into fingers locks, straight into underclings; desperate side pulls on slabs ; a rest or two (ask yourself why you were granted this). Wait there comes the ig bad bulge, if you have balanced passed this have a breathe or two; you can probably smell the top from here. So so near but so so far, just hope you have the right cam left for the job (headpointers like me can hide in a hole). Open your "climbing move encyclopedia" to pull past, if It isn't there atleast you and I learnt a move or two.

Gear beta: Double rack with singles of #2 and #3, compulsory set of wires accompanied with loads of confiance en soi.

Top rope followed by lead attempt (two falls; uno en gaining slab, segundo en crux).

Would love to lead it one day but how do one protect themself throught the middle part? #RunItOut ? #YOLO
