Third climb of our day out.
Care must be taken to keep just left of the obvious Gulley that runs just to the right of the climb. The Gulley makes the route too easy. The flat surface to the left of it has some fun moves.
Pulled rope through to lead with draws still in place

Fourth and most Epic climb of the day!
Long climb that tests the stamina. Awesome exposure on the flat face on the middle of this wall. Topped with an awesome view.
Pulled rope through to lead with draws still in place. Had to take 2 or 3 times to alleviate forearm pump.

Fith climb of the day and a Great one at that. One tricky move mid way up the climb. Tricky because it is tough to see the sequence. Have to move to the right below the ledge and then get into a right-leaner side grip to move up the face without reaching over to the sarel seemonsters line. Grips are a bit thin, but quite manageable, sustained tension makes it a good ascent.
Clipped into the top anchor while descending Brollocks to set up this top rope. Had to take quite a few times as this was my 5th long climb of the day and the pump was real.
Looking forward to smashing it next time. |

Second ascent of this route and sixth long climb on this day. Top roped to build some stamina on the sustained arm pump through the mid wall.
Had to rest a lot and clean draws on the way up this top rope.

Not sure how this is 22 but sure.
Dont get sucked into the corner - use the undercling crimp to boost through the centre of the block.
Honeslty really hard for the grade, and the top is pure classic boven

The tree climbing made this one a lot of fun for me. The crux for me was a high left foot with a right hand gaston just after the tree growing halfway up the route. Got it on second go.
