![]() | 4m | ★★★ Classic | |||
I was hoping to give this a good play tonite but it was very wet, and we were very weak.
I don't think it's worth the long drive, wet walk in and leachs but maybe we are just soft.

FFA. Paul sussed out the line and together we figured out the beta to get it sent. Fun pockets through an near horizontal roof. The rock is a little suss in spots but the holds feel solid.
Used to be an old project but we used a couple different holds to a logical finish. |
||||||
V6 |
★★ Style Cat
![]() | 4m | ★★★ Classic | |||
This made me work for sure... It took me a little while to figure out the middle moves via the rad apple core. Took a little breather and sent.

Very psyched to tick this off. The reason I came back.
Played out the moves and went for a soft attempt, before I knew it I was on the mid problem jug. Keep on going only to break the little edge going to the victory jug :-/
Sent it packing second attempt. Felt pretty soft, but a total classic for Sydney bouldering. Go try it. |
