Back in July 2014, I found this route extremely tough for an 11a. Drew and I projected it and we finally figured out the crux. Wanted to come back fresh to try it. Went back today and sent it quite easily.

Tue 8th Sep 2020
The local Guide book stayes that it's either 10b with an A0 section OR 10d. Either way it's a super fun lower pitch, with great gear (small Nuts) into bolts, and a few supplemental cams. I never did find the 10d moves, but did climb through the slabby A0 section. The upper two pitches could use a scrub, but with a little digging I found good gear. Climbing through the crystal pockets was super fun! Definitely a must do in Vic!

(Pitch 1: see: cooked goose area)

Our local guide books say that it's either 10b with an A0 section OR 10d for the first pitch. I was able free the entire thing, super fun lower pitch, with great gear (Nuts) into bolts, and a few small supplemental cams.

There is some loose rock climbing though the fist roof, but it's easily avoided, I marked what blocks I found with an X and will remove them soon.

The upper two pitches could use a scrub, but with a little digging I found good gear through slabby terrain. Climbing through the crystal pockets was super fun, but P3 isn't much to write home about. Either way it's definitely a must do in Vic!

Pretty tricky route for a 5.10b. There are steep moves at the bottom. The traverse is a bit thin. The upper bulge has slopers as you come out over it. It has difficult moves throughout.
