Ascents in New Zealand by Kyle Johnson

Climbed putting the draws on, felt much better with dry rock and knowing the moves. Packs a lot in for a short climb!

Tried at the end of the day, and just lost power, will be back for it

Hard for 21

Was close on the flash attempt, figured out the top and it went pretty easy next go

Repeat to take the draws down

Jumped on as my warm up as was late to the crag and did the best I'd ever done, 2nd try went even better almost stuck the crux move. Can do the climb in two parts. Can pull on straight after falling and go to the top doing the crux.

Repeat

Fell going to the second to last hold putting on the draws, went pretty easy second attempt. Pretty chuffed climbing the bottom bit without faffing around like I had done on previous attempts. The no hands rest in the middle helps 😅. Two 26s in a weekend is a first aswell!!

Good send today, might have gone second gonif I didn't hesitate between trying my beta or jess'

Managed all the moves today, first move of crux feels harder than last time I tried it. Think a bit of the left hand hold has come away. Still pleased with the progress. Need good skin for it as the holds are so sharp!!

Thought I had it 3rd try, but didn't hit the arete right, hopefully next session it will go

Cool down route - unsend, first time falling at the crux after doing it twice before on different occasions 🤣

Glad to get the clean repeat first try

Another great route, climbed to the final roof clean but then lost my cool. Need to expose myself to roofs more I think

Amazing climb, climbed it clean to the final roof. Where my lack of roof climbing got the better of me, managed to do all the moves but took a few attempts just to get over the nerves. Will come back for it

Made an absolute meal of this climb. Lost my nerve after the start and couldn't recover

Got a bit muddled in the corner beneath the roof on the onsight. Went 2nd go

Not my best attempt, messed up my beta after the middle of the route.

Surprised myself sending this as my warm up route, done it before but normally need a couple routes in me to get the fingers working

Climbed it but I definitely went off route in the middle was more of a mix of the 2 routes. Will need to come back and try it properly

Repeat

Repeat

Repeat, great route

Should have onsighted but spent too long faffing looking for holds at the top and got pumped. Very fun traverse

Very fun climb, although top section is like climbing on wheat-a-bix

Tricky start, hard to read, holds seem to go very off the bolt line

Got more bolts now

Now bolted

Now bolted

Frozen fingers made it hard to get comfortable on the holds. Would have liked another go but we were rushing as it was getting dark

Retro flash, tried about a year ago and messed up the middle section. Went for another for a warm down.

Very cool climb, managed the crux move in isolation but only once. Found the rest of the climb not to bad
