Creese Wall / Rawhide Roof | |||||||
20 | ★★ Tongue In Groove — 4 attempts | 14m | ★ Good | ||||
Mistakenly waited until the end of the day to climb this in the sun, holds were quite dirty and greasy. Took some good whips.
|
|||||||
20 | ★ The Fearless Vampire Killers — 2 attempts | 18m, 3 | ★ Good | ||||
A good-ish climb with questionable bolting. A quickdraw with a stiffened dogbone (e.g. a Kong Panic) would come in handy for the second bolt if you're not tall (decking potential). Might have gone a couple of holds too far right on the roof?
|
|||||||
19 | ★ Blockbuster | 18m, 5 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Far better than expected, it gets two stars in the guide but when the description specifically mentions Paines slopers, I tend to be a little apprehensive haha.

Dodgy bolting made me dislike this route. Stood on ledge with 3rd bolt at your knees, committing move to 4th bolt, would have been a nasty fall if foot slipped, so gave it a pass.

Would have been onsight but someone left ticks on all the crucial holds 😑 felt like a bloody gym climb as a result. Oh well.
