14 | ★ The Spine - con Liz | 25m, 3 | ★ Buena | Mar 5.º Mayo 2015 | |||
Step back in time to quarry climbing in the '60s - felt more like a 16 to me.

Short, harder than 16 at the bottom, way easier than 16 at the top, not a lot going for it.

Short, but easy to protect with big, chunky gear. Good route to build up some trad leading confidence.

Very technical line on very nice rock. Great climb to get some sun on a cool morning.
|
|||||||
23 | ★★ Bonking Penguins - con Paul Donovan | 18m | ★ Buena | Jue 11.º Mayo 2017 | |||
A pretty horrid effort tonight. Working on my weaknesses, which is basically this whole route.
|
|||||||
22 23 | ★★ Stolen Glory | 15m, 5 | ★★ Muy buena | Mar 7.º En 2014 | |||
I did maybe 25% of the moves legitimately, and then cheated without restraint, but not without shame, on the rest to get to the top. Much work to do.
|
|||||||
22 | ★★ Stolen Glory - con Ashley Felton | 15m, 5 | ★★ Muy buena | Mié 18.º Feb 2015 | |||
Sustained crimpy nightmare crux after the easy start, then some steep slab, then a nice finish up the corner. This is a good climb, but hard for the grade. It's 23 in the blue book, not sure why it's been downgraded here.
|
|||||||
23 | ★★ Stolen Glory - con Ashley Felton | 15m, 5 | ★★ Muy buena | Mar 24.º Feb 2015 | |||
Easy start, but with a high first clip to keep you focused, then it's crimpy, technical and balancy with a nervy finish. Well worth doing.

Fell at the first clip trying for the onsight. Came back down and finished clean on 2nd attempt. Hard at the bottom and easy at the top. No stars.
|

|
|||||||
18 | ★ Strider | 25m | ★ Buena | Mar 24.º Dic 2013 | |||
Tricky start, but heading up the slab to the base of the arete is not as hard as it looks. Getting onto the arete from there is the crux.

17 | ★ Striding Edge | 25m | Medio | Sáb 7.º Jun 2014 | |||
Not just trad anymore, 2 rings and 2 bolts to loweroffs so take a couple of bolt plates. Runout at the top, but the climbing there is secure.

20 | ★ Shorter Circuit - con Steve Whitehead | 24m, 12 | Medio | Mié 11.º Nov 2015 | |||
Top roped this after Steve went up Short Circuit. There are more and better holds than it looks like from the ground, but it's over fairly quickly and I'm not a fan of Short Circuit itself, so all up it's pretty average.
|
|||||||
17 | ★★ Short Circuit Direct | 27m, 10 | Medio | Vie 17.º Oct 2014 | |||
It's ok, I suppose. Not worth 2 stars though.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Circuit Breaker - con Paul Donovan | 10 | Mié 13.º Jul 2016 | ||||
First look. Very doable first half (via Shorter Circuit), then it gets to a hard section that's going to take some working out. A lot more questions than answers at this stage.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Hammer and Tongs - con Ashley Felton | 25m, 8 | ★★ Muy buena | Mar 20.º Oct 2015 | |||
Started working the route on top rope. There's the odd desperate move here and there, but a lot of it's reasonably solid. On second attempt I got to the final mantle move, then ran out of ideas.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Hammer and Tongs - con Ashley Felton | 25m, 8 | ★★ Muy buena | Mar 27.º Oct 2015 | |||
2 more top rope attempts. The first was truly ugly, but at least I eventually worked out the top mantle. Second was almost clean except I slipped on the mantle after doing the hard work, taking essentially the last possible opportunity to fall.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Hammer and Tongs - con Ashley Felton | 25m, 8 | ★★ Muy buena | Mar 3.º Nov 2015 | |||
2 top rope ascents, both of them clean, neither of them totally convincing, but some time I'm going to have to think about the lead.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Hammer and Tongs - con Ashley Felton, Steve Whitehead | 25m, 8 | ★★ Muy buena | Mar 8.º Dic 2015 | |||
First lead attempt. Fell at the 4th clip, went upside down and spilled all my chalk, not quite the glorious ascent I'd envisaged. Next time I try this I might put a helmet on.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Hammer and Tongs - con Richard, Rodney | 25m, 8 | ★★ Muy buena | Mar 22.º Dic 2015 | |||
One fall, going up to the undercling, and another sort of fall when a draw on my harness sneakily clipped itself to the draw on the bolt below the mantle as I climbed past, which stopped me in my tracks.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Hammer and Tongs - con Rebecca Trigger | 25m, 8 | ★★ Muy buena | Dom 27.º Dic 2015 | |||
Job done. Great route with a great variety of committing moves.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Bullseye - con Paul Donovan | 20m | ★★ Muy buena | Dom 6.º Ag 2017 | |||
Hard boulder problem to the second clip, then it becomes much more manageable. Some nice moves along the way with good rests and a cool top out. Hopefully the start will feel better with some practice, then it should go.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Bullseye - con Paul Donovan | 20m | ★★ Muy buena | Dom 27.º Ag 2017 | |||
Beta finding session. Nearly pulled through the bottom section after a bunch of attempts. Totally baulked at the big move past the 6th bolt above the ledge.
|
|||||||

25 | ★★ Bullseye - con Paul Donovan | 20m | ★★ Muy buena | Sáb 21.º Oct 2017 | |||
Not much closer than last time, but it's nice climbing, so that's kind of ok.
|
|||||||
25 | ★★ Bullseye - con Paul Donovan | 20m | ★★ Muy buena | Sáb 28.º Oct 2017 | |||
Double send. Slight beta change made the start much better. Once I got going I didn't want to do it a second time, so I milked the rests and stayed fresh. Backed up by Paul sending in the wind and rain. Great session on a really satisfying climb.
