What a fight! Almost gave up on the chimney-like section, thanks to the belayer who encouraged me to push through. Having 3-ple rack of 0.4 to #1 cams did help. And used 2 of #3 at the end.

Got better comparing to the last year attempt. First pitch still has a hard layback sequence before launching to traverse which is still a bit wet. The traverse is techy and pumpy. Second pitch felt much easier, it is quite cruisy if you know which way to turn

★★★ Caligula
![]() | 60m | Mount Buffalo | Sun 5th Nov 2023 | ||||
What a battle! Could not jam for the first 15ish meters because too wide for my hands. Had to shuffle #4 because was told I would need it at the top. Full on offwidth technique took a lot from me so I wanted to bail at least twice. Glad took 4 number #3. After the crack becomes smaller it is really pleasant. Put #0.75 before laybacking across the roof and don't think you need more to protect this move. However, could not find any good gear after the roof. Slinged a bush and put some dodgy cam but don't think It would take a fall

What an amazing climb! I could do it every day if not the tricky start (bouldery free solo) to the first ledge. Next is a bit of a thought provoking move just a couple of meters above the ledge and after that cruisy double jamming almost to the end of the climb. Could be as good as Infinity if not the start.

I was in the onsight mood and even passing the roof went cruisy. Apparently the crux, but it was not. The crux is the bulging crack above the roof. Got pumped going up and down trying to figure out the sequence and set on the gear. BTW we gear on the route is amazing. A bit tricky but not physical sequence involves jamming and smearing until you get good feet. And it is easy again after that. Sad I did not do it clean but it takes some time to get used to smearing on Organ Pipes dolerite.

My first experience with such an abrasive granite. Got my foot really stuck several times applying my "normal" jamming techniques. I think i almost destroyed my quite new TC Pros. High ankle shoes or ankle taping is the must, even on the exit! Very adventurous and hard for the grade. The last pitch was the most difficult because you can easily loose the right way and start doing silly things)). The exit is tricky too.

Had to bail first time on the day because could not squeeze my bum into the offwidth. Got beta on passing this section using holds outside the offwidth. Come back on the same day and did it. Still a bit of fight on the remaining offwidth section but much more doable. The chimney is very well protected but take more small (0.3 - 0.7) cams or nuts or run it out (pretty safe if you are on friendly terms with chimneys).
