Fourth Breakaway
19 Sleight of Hand - with Brendan Heywood, Benji Dutaillis, Todd Free, Volodymyr K, Sophia, Katrina, Atto Trad 15m Mega Classic
Been wanting to try this gem for a long time. Was dissapointed to see the nearby waterfall blowing horizontally onto and drenching the route. But then Volo got on it anyway and said it was great so I was inspired. Incredible route with the experience made all the more richer by the wet, windy conditions. Full focus and extra grunt required. Trad fix aquired.

Trad 270m Mega Classic
A very memorable route. Thought it'd be nice to get on and have a nice easy, airy wander up a grade 16.... not quite. A committing route for the grade with sections of sparse protection, moist or loose rock and some really neat exposure. The two grassy ledges were great for a half-height picnic and it was nice to sort out the mess of a description for the end of the 3rd pitch. Skippy took an exciting tumble/bounce down the waterfall face and was arrested by a #5 BD microwire after a good sized block decided it wanted to relocate itself. Really interesting, engaging climbing and totally up there with FOTP in my books.

Trad 290m Mega Classic
What a day out. A late arival to camp had us at the base of FOTP by 10am. In hindsight the route is quite obvious. At the time, however, it was not. Traversed way too far left on P1 and belayed at the big obvious shrub below the corner with two pitons (probably SJ). This meant that we probably didn't even do FOTP P2 but wandered up past said pitons on some other route (probably SJ) and way over and above the P2 belay ledge. I wandered about in circles on the slab 20m above and L of the wing for an age and found a small belay ledge for some other route with an old rusty hex and a sling (likely LD). Down climbed to retrieve my sparse pro before using the corner of SJ do get back onto the ramp and finally located the tat down the R-hand end of the ramp - pretty obvious in hindsight. We probably didn't rap far enough on P3, but found some good med cam placements behind a large hanging block. P4 was great with good exposure. In fading light I took P5 too far up and R and clearly missed the orange rock swinging L. That meant P6 started below some hanging blocks but we spied the nose before sunset and knew where to finish. We got back on route in the dark halfway through this pitch and really enjoyed it and P7. Got back to Balor at 11:30pm and it was all totally worth it - 15.5 hours hut to hut, what a pair of Bungle newbs ;-)

Ermagerd. Deliverance Delivers. This the first route at the breakaway is a stunner. With cold fingers and flash pump I had to work hard for this one. Really great route and good sesh on it with Benj and Skippy.

18 Fist dunce - with Brendan Heywood Trad 12m Good
A good line with interesting moves. Not the pick of the lines available, but not a bad one either and we were so excited that we just had to get started on something and so this was it.

 
19 Eagle Nebular - with Brendan Heywood Trad 12m Very Good
Just enough time to squeeze in this absolute bottler of a route. I expected it to really ramp up but it was fairly consistent. This sort of stuff puts a smile on your face for days.

 
Sun 19th Apr 2020 - Upper Gara Gorge
Downstream climbing areas The Fortress
20 Rites Of Passage - with Benji Dutaillis Mixed trad 45m, 5 Good
Had a bit of trouble finding the start (would've helped if I'd read the description properly) :-P From the two belayer/anchor carrots follow 3 carrots up the slabby scoop to the R (there is great potential further to the left for better slab). Cool moves through the overlap and L bring you to the base of the next slab which is thin and cruxy and gets the grade I guess. Two more carrots here up the slabby arete. The crack at the top is beautiful and eats up red (#1), yellow (#2) and Blue (#3) BD cams.

Northern areas Donger Boulders OK Corral
V3 V0 Shootout Boulder 7m Classic
Tricky slab before regaining some composure at the break and finishing up the bomber jams. 1 pad or 6 pads it's all the same I suspect....I'd give it a 3 but the damp slab may've added a bit.

20 Bombay Duck - with Benji Dutaillis Trad 15m Very Good
Thought we'd jump on a sporty looking grade 20 trad route and it didn't dissapoint.

 
15 The Removalist - with Benji Dutaillis Trad 15m Good
Hardest 15 I've done in a while and first time back on rope in 7 months! I don't think I've paid the loose block as much attention as I did on thhis send

 
17 Firestorm - with Benji Dutaillis Trad 15m Very Good
Had to get Benji on an Ebor jamming classic for our last climb. It felt quite a bit harder than I remembered but got up it okay. Nice to be back and jamming!

 
Fri 23rd Aug 2019 - Wollomombi Falls
18 After the Rain - with Scotty Trad 190m Mega Classic
A full day of Tablelands adventure climbing. Some very good rock quality throughout, interspersed with sections of poor and loose rock. Variable climbing with some thought provoking moves and a committing crux section on very small/run out gear. Plenty of dry moss on this face. If you’re getting desperate for pro try looking under some moss. Amazing scenery. Dress warm, no sun on wall during winter.

Rap: Good clean fun until we got a rope stuck at the bottom of the 4th rap. Scotty belayed me up my 1st pitch here to retrieve said rope.

P1 14 (25m): a little bit hard to find the start. We walked in from the big ledge below the last rap, 20m above the creek line. Ended up starting a little R of the description in a large off-width crack with a chockstone to a semi hanging belay. Up and R of top of crack.

P2 16 (20m): up and L of small roof into one of two open corner/s. I started in the R corner and traversed into the L when pro and holds looked better. Up to big blocky ledge with a series of large cracks for big bomber pro.

P3 18 (25m): From blocks head up and L into open fused corner. We momentarily considered going R at blocky belay to see what we could find but eventually opted to stay the path of ATR. RPs protect the first moves here after which is a committing run-out move up the blank corner before traversing L at or above the arête to find good holds/pro out on slab. Head up to find obvious crack line in which you should site some history in the form of a #6 hex. Belay here or continue on if your ropes allow.

P4 16 (35m) Continue up crack line and through mossy and slightly loose/chossy sections. I stepped L at the first blocky overlap before rejoining the crackline above. More mossy skatey sections above but with good pro. Belay on top of blocky pillar at top of crack or continue another 15m to sentinel belay as described in guide.

P5 (40m): From sentinel walk R along base of slab until you can step up onto slab. Scramble up and L to top.

The Watchtower Faces Right Watchtower Face
21 21 R Auto Da Fe - with Brendan Heywood Trad 90m Mega Classic
Intended to do Watchtower Crack and then thought we’d step it up a notch for our last and decided on Skink. A bit of traffic on P1 and a recommendation from a local and we started up Auto Da Fe instead. It totally delivered. I hadn’t needed to place many small wires on our trip. This route changed that. We almost bailed up Golum before even starting P2 but then the local reappeared and decided to watch us on the crux while he ate lunch and so that sealed our fate (plus I have no idea where Golum even went). The crux was a delicate and beautiful thing. I really enjoyed this section. A little committing but pro where you need it.

Amazeballs. We had a great party for this one. Met Will, Jose and Winnie that morning and teamed up to tackle the route together and take some glory shots! Short and all over pretty quickly but totally lived up to the hype! A bit of drizzle added to the atmosphere and made the crux a little more interesting.

Fri 10th May 2019 - Dangars Gorge
Dangars Falls
16 14 Action - with Scotty Trad 150m Classic
Really happy to finally get on this route. I think I first looked at Dangars 10 years ago and imagined what it would be like. Well, it was great and certainly delivered. Really good clean climbing in parts (particularly on P1-P3), but plenty of loose blocks (P3-P5), and a few chossy teetering towers here and there and we even a couple of passing showers thrown in the mix to keep us on our toes. Pretty good wire placements throughout despite the routes reputation, need to be careful with cam placements though this rock spits them out pretty easily. Probably a few sections that warranted a stiffer grade (16-17), but I guess that the nature of a choose your own adventure, slightly wandering route. Linked P1 & P2, seconded P3, linked P4 & P5. Climbed on twin 60’s. Good times

24 Weaselburger - with Match Sport 190m Mega Classic
An epically good day out. Got down early and gave ourselves time to take it all in. P1. Very good, straight into the crimping. P2. Classic, solid and very memorable start. P3. Mega Classic, quite sustained and the highlight pitch for me (but for the record they’re all sick). P4. Classic, very airy, exposed and nice to see some sun. P5. Classic, this thing just keeps on giving. (Solid effort Mitchy!). P6. Very good, some fun moves to finish it all off (but well short of the suggested 20m). Great ring placements throughout. Thanks again Blueys!!

Such a great day out. Stunning views and great climbing. Mitch was an absolute gentleman and gave me all the leads (except 9). P1 did seem a little harder than 22 and was very satisfying. P2 was cool and trickier than I expected and P5 was a nice change. P6 (Mitch even cranked 'the song'), P7 and P8 were sick and definitely the money pitches for exposure - loved it! Couldn't leave without doing P10 which had a spicy finish for the grade and well worth doing. Thanks for the run Mitty it was awesome dude!
