21 | ★★★ Dream Thing - with siâny | 15m, 8 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Megafun! Glad to get the onsight! Wasn’t elated at first cos I felt the rope when I cut feet at the lip, so did it again just to prove to myself that I didn’t cheat it.

24 | ★★ Nu Energy — 2 attempts - with Jess Cotton | 20m, 8 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
First attempt was basically to try and get warm after having a break, 2nd go went well. Definitely lanked one move which I could have climbed nicer. Fun route though
|
|||||||
26 | ★★ The Prophecy - with Jess Cotton | 18m, 7 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Tried this about a year ago and couldn't quite get the crux, the whole climb felt much easier. Could only get one try as had to leave but will definitely try it again next time

South Side Zippity Zappity Wall | |||||||
25 | ★★ Resurrection — 2 attempts | 25m, 8 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Another couple of goes. Superb face climbing until a hard bulge. Figured out the moves over the bulge couple small crimps and a hard pinch.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Resurrection | 25m, 8 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Really nice technical climbing on insecure holds. Haven't been able to do the crux moves in the middle of the route as they are quite reachy for me. Keen to work it though!

Post concussion weakness hit hard on this one. Probably still a hard 19 but definitely was weak. Super cool rock formation at the top, feels like you're climbing on bones.

23 | ★★ Monsieur Muscle | 28m, 9 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Slipped at 2nd bolt, lost the on sight. Very funny route. No obvious hand and foot hold most of the time. Very technical balancy move all the way up to the near end.

South Side Main Wall | |||||||
25 | ★★ TNT - with Jason Nguyen, Caitlyn | 15m, 7 | |||||
Thought I was going up the 21 and cruised quite comfortably to what I'm assuming was the crux, took to have a look. Move felt way to hard for a 21 then we realised it was a 25 so would have felt more comfortable having to pull on those holds then, till we saw guide said caution run out slab so decided to save my energy to actually pull on the 21 since not being super comfortable on NZ rock . Really awesome knee bar rests through the roof
|
|||||||
21 | ★★★ Dream Thing - with Jack Ferguson, Caitlyn | 15m, 8 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Start was not THAT juggy, or maybe we missed them, can’t read this schist.
Not too bad pulling the lip and the head wall was super enjoyable! |
|||||||
21 | ★★★ Dream Thing | 15m, 8 | |||||
Second go after putting the draws on immediately after running up a 25 we thought we was the 21. Second go went quite nicely, really cool knee bar to pull out of the roof after the clip
|
|||||||
16 ~17 | ★★★ The Mission | 28m, 9 | |||||
Super fun and different climbing compared to bluies, few hard moves down the bottom, what you think will be jugs most likely aren't, so commit with caution
Once through the start became much nicer |
|||||||
16 ~17 | ★★★ The Mission — 2 attempts - with Jack Ferguson, Caitlyn | 28m, 9 | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Such a good route, awesome moves, positions, holds and length!!
Don’t go direct with the bolts the entire way, it is definitely not the grade if you do… Needed a second go, 17 is fair as per guidebook |

Long, meandering route. Bolts are pretty spaced out and the anchors are farther up than you think. But otherwise the movement and airy exposure make this climb feel epic!
|
|||||||
21 | ★★★ Dream Thing | 15m, 8 | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Insanely fun climb! Stick clip the first bolt if you can, as its a bit spicy if you blew it. Super clean fall as your hucking for the lip tho. Its like climbing a cave boulder problem at the gym (jugs and heel hooks) till you pull over the lip. Once established on the face the climbing eases off to 15/16. Don't forget the classic photo for instagram!
|
|||||||
16 | ★★★ The Mission | 28m, 9 | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
SO FUN! Long, engaging, well protected, airy. All the things. A great first lead for the new outdoor climber. Tie knots in the end of your rope (60m) and dont be suprised if it lowers you around the corner.
