1 23 30m Sport lead by Alec Landstra

The mantle wasn't as heinous as expected, thank goodness

2 21 20m Sport lead by Alec Landstra

Cool steep section, but a bit poorly protected off the ledge

3 22 60m Sport lead by Alec Landstra

Great face moves off the deck, then a very enjoyable slab with some awesome tufa moves. Even the drop down traverse is great!

4 25 30m Sport lead by Alec Landstra

One of the best pitches around! Sitting on that tufa is such a novelty! Great rock, position and moves!

5 23 20m Sport lead by Alec Landstra

Nearly cooked this one when I committed to sequence that was very hard to reverse. Luckily I found the right way eventually

6 22 60m Sport lead by Alec Landstra

Was expecting a chossy ramble to the top of the cliff, but ended up getting a fantastic long pitch on great rock!

Cool arete sequence up high! No great anchor clipping position though. Unless you climb past onto the choss — with Jessica Weakley

20 A Ranger Deal Sport 12m, 3

Was pretty confused when the bolts ran out. Turns out it is hidden behind the grassy bush — with Jessica Weakley

A dogalicious start to the day. Was very close to the OS on pitch one, but had to go in hard multiple times on the second pitch to rest. Felt pretty hard up high — with Elliot Kals

Nice for about 2m, then not so nice — with Elliot Kals

Nice mono up high! — with Jessica Weakley

16 Tree Huggers Delight Sport 10m, 4 — with Jessica Weakley.

14 Blackboy Back Flip Sport 12m, 3

About as good as it gets for a 10m 14! Theres a hold which you can stick your arm up to your elbow in, and grab a handlebar inside! — with Jessica Weakley

14 Modge Sport 10m, 3 — with Jessica Weakley.

Could have gone 2nd go, or 10th, but instead it decided to go ~50th go

V4 The A Team Boulder 3m

Quite bum draggy, but pretty good. Particularly the end. Took a little bit of figuring out

V4 Dags Boulder 2mClassic

I thought this was very hard, but very, very good

V4 Boris The Blade Boulder 3m

Very hard first 2 moves, then still not that easy. Great problem up a great feature though!

Beaut rock, but quite ugly getting around the corner. Dont fall in the drink!

V4 The Palisade Boulder

Big first move to slopy shelf. Then easy top out

V3 Sweet Enough Boulder 5m

V3 Break Left Boulder 3m

Nice edges

V3 Gourmet Offerings Boulder

Stand start + 1m tall boulder = not much climbing

V3 Double Brie Boulder

V3 Fruit & Nuts Boulder

Great slots! Nice problem

V3 From The Deep Boulder

V3 Flood Levels Boulder

No shoes, no pads, no worries

Again, hard but good

V3 Turkish Boulder 5m

Top compression is a bit committing. Bailed to adjust pads before doing the sequence

V3 Fight You For It Boulder 4m

V3 Bonsai Boulder 2m

Nice clean mantle problem!

V3 Tasting Platter Boulder

V2 Caravans Boulder 2m

V2 Ah, Push It Boulder

I think this is what I climbed? Had lots of chalk on it. Slabby face 2m right of make do on the adjacent block. No topo in duncans guide either

V2 Make A Stand Boulder

Great rock and nice holds

V2 Break Boulder 3m

V2 The water slide Boulder 3m

nice sidepull and heel hook

V2 Chocolate Fondue Boulder

Pleasant

V2 Pumpkin Soup BoulderClassic

Great feature!

V2 Make Do Boulder

Quite dirty

V2 Riverside Boulder 3m

Better from the sit start

V1 Osgiliath Boulder 2m

V3 Corporate Box Boulder 4m

Had a quick go, but had to bail as the wasps started coming out of their hive in great numbers

Had a tickle, but pretty committing with that bad landing

V0 Pikeys Boulder 2m

Small start holds for a V0

V0 Pressed Boulder 2m

Surely has been done before. But worthwhile to record

VB Trapped Boulder 3m

very easy, but rock is sublime
