20 | ★ Hills Hardmen | 13m, 2 | Mount Keira | ★ Good | Sun 8th Jul 2018 | |||
Awesome full balance mantle, a test piece for outdoor mantling. Some confusion with the bit with the tree and blank section above though.

I had looked at this arete before it was put up, I had originally envisioned a tough boulder starting underneath the arete and straddling out the nose. Maybe back in Graeme's day there was soil here!

Very interesting mounting manuevere over the roof nose, fun.

Not really much use using the crack proper

17 | ★ Stratum | 12m | Mount Keira | ★ Good | Sun 27th May 2018 | |||
A wicked start, had to climb back to front and wedge in. Maybe easier for tall people.

Would be more fun without the tree in the route
|

20 | Hills Hardon (Variant) | 13m | Mount Keira | Don't Bother | Sun 8th Jul 2018 | |||
Unless I am doing it wrong that pull on start is quite tough. Really not much point in the varient, Crux is still the end section. Tree in the way awkward.

Some good moves, but not good for top rope, particularly with the current anchors. Recommend bolts!

21 | ★★ Champagne & Bolognese | 27m, 18 | South Pacific | ★ Good | Sat 11th Jul 2020 | |||
Everyone should do it once to experience what 'adventure' climbing is.

17 | ★★ Mad Hatter | 20m, 12 | Nowra | ★★★ Classic | Sat 29th Jun 2019 | |||
What a lark! Slow but steady, tackling the mind games, mega wicked exposure. Huge rope drag at the end and communication issues, then belaying was an interesting exercise - dangling out in mid air trying to take slack! Some strange bolt positions (knee bolts). Take 60m rope.

22 21 | ★★ Sex and Pizza | 25m, 11 | South Pacific | ★★ Very Good | Sat 4th Jul 2020 | |||
Exposure! A bit of eying up the crux, but then just launched for it and went. With the extension.

22 | ★★★ Birds Over Burnouts | 25m, 10 | New Nowra - Braidwood Road | ★★ Very Good | Fri 1st Jan 2021 | |||
Quality fun roof and tricky headwall. First section a bit average, negate 1 star.

18 | ★★ Dora the Explorer (and the lost crack of gold.) | 30m, 10 | Mount Alexandra | ★ Good | Sat 16th Mar 2024 | |||
No joke you need the full 60m. A trimmed 59m rope would be too short!

17 | ★★ Forth Dimension | 24m, 9 | Nowra | ★★★ Classic | Sat 13th Jul 2019 | |||
Such unusual and inspiring climbing. Definitely a classic of the area. Awesome 'head-bar' rest under the roof, also managed to get a nice knee-bar in the chimney crack later. Really funky rock and climbing technique.
|
||||||||
17 16 | ★★ Three Rooves to Glory | 15m, 9 | Stanwell Tops | ★★ Very Good | Sat 23rd Nov 2019 | |||
Funky! Maybe a bit too juggy and steep for 16. Not for beginners.
|

19 | ★★ Alien Space Monsters | 25m, 9 | Nowra | ★ Good | Thu 25th Jun 2020 | |||

19 18 | ★★ Depleted Gonad Circumference | 20m, 9 | Nowra | ★ Good | Sun 4th Oct 2020 | |||

18 | ★ An Easy Day for a Lady | 29m, 9 | New Nowra - Braidwood Road | Average | Fri 1st Jan 2021 | |||
Slabby slab. Pointless anchors over the ledge, too much rope drag to pull a double rap, annoying!
|

22 | ★★ Thang Down, Flip it & Reverse it | 20m, 9 | South Pacific | ★ Good | Sat 23rd Oct 2021 | |||
Interesting and varied, wandered a bit, reminded me of 'Wallyard Arete' near the top.

22 | ★★ Freak Magnet | 20m, 9 | Nowra | ★★ Very Good | Sun 11th Sep 2022 | |||
Very hard onsight, route is quite difficult to read and you use a lot of energy crimping those thin sections figuring it out.

18 | ★ Old Timer's Disease | 16m, 8 | Nowra | Average | Sat 13th Jul 2019 | |||
A bit confusing route? Seems to be missing a bolt in a runout section in the upper? Head wall lichenous.
|
||||||||
21 | ★ Wasp welts at one o'clock | 16m, 8 | Nowra | Average | Sat 13th Jul 2019 | |||
Desperate onsight! Didn't realise I was getting myself into such a slabby mess. Some dicey moves through the difficult slab cruxes including an awkward mono pocket. Some confusion about climbs here, Nowra guidebook has some different info, start seems more like Zorro?
|
||||||||
20 | ★ Kiddies Chorus | 20m, 8 | Mount Alexandra | ★ Good | Sat 14th Sep 2019 | |||
Tricky! Ended up going too high up the crack left, then had to down climb to move out right properly to the face. Some fumbling around trying to locate those 'hidden' holds on the head wall face.
|
||||||||
21 20 | ★★ Fling The Merciless | 12m, 8 | Stanwell Tops | ★ Good | Sat 23rd Nov 2019 | |||
