Ascensions dans Hobart and surrounds par Joe Thorne

Love it, it’s a pumpy route but finding efficiencies and polishing up my beta!

Sweet relief, a sensational climb testing both technique and mental game. 4th visit to send it.

Fall above the 4th bolt but it’s all coming together!

First multipitch in the bag, I personally found the second pitch harder, more than likely because I wasn't well versed in the style of climbing.

Groovy

Nice to get some more rock awareness back, dry fired on the first bit though ha

Spooky traverse bit but it makes sense!

Found the left pocket move too difficult to stick! Lovely approach through.

Nice to get outdoors again after the winter, feeling good!

Absolute respect to anyone who can send this, the slab section is punishing.

Maybe 1 crux move away, it’s bloody tough.

Changed the beta, made a world of difference over the bulge.

Has been on the hit list for a while, I walk my dog around Knocklofty a lot so it always teased me.

The toughest part is not letting your mind race ahead saying ‘oh I’ve got this’, you still have to string 3 cruxes together.

I really don’t know how I feel about this climb, it has cool moves but I feel like the crux over the bulge could sling you to faceplant-town if you mess it up with the previous clip being off to the side.

Getting close, final little dead point needs commitment to land.

Wow, back to the drawing board with this one.

Yes, slab, nice and fun, many smiles.

Oh lawdddd I got spanked after the third bolt. High foot slab ?

The beginning is a blast.
