Big day out with Dude

delicate in sections, but a nice route. only found 2 of the bolts...

Seconding Ben, some cool moves through the crux

Great climbing, not in a hurry to lead it though. We only found 2 carrots too

about E11 up to the cave....especially with my gear!!

The last route of the day- the rock finally warmed up. Mostly wire protection

Definitely good, but hardly "one of the best 19's at cosmic" (as per the new guide). Climbs like a shorter, substantially less sustained Baird's Effort, with a 2-move sequence to the grade, and everything else considerably easier. Eats wires. Lots of wires.

Great climb and well worth the walk.

Nice mixed route with a variety of gear and some vintage carrots. Thought provoking crux is gear protected. Guidebook description for how to get off wasn't immediately obvious/the tree I think it was referring to is set back from the edge and would make pulling ropes difficult. We walked back towards IS31 and down the wide gully in between there and Cosmed area.

Very good trad route!

interesting climbing on good gear.

some tough moves down low followed by much easier climbing up high that gets a bit run out on carrots.

Great! Highly recommended.

Lovely. Nice runout to the top. Maybe i wasnt looking hard enough for pro just enjoying the jugs

Touchstone more like "Touchwood I can climb 19s" hehe

Really fun but definitely not a gimme. Some big moves on small crimps for the grade.

Thin and hard

Big day out with Dude

stiffest 15 I'd done for awhile. Chossy, vegetated and mud and sand for half the climb. A great welcome back to climbing!

Sent a toaster sized block down with a slight nudge, inches from my belayer, battled ferns for holds, pulled into the cave using a terrifying compacted dirt block, and bailed by rapping down around the pillar. The crack on the headwall actually looks quite nice but I’d used up all my fear factor already.

Good until vegetation and dirt halfway up crack.

Something must have fallen off this as there is no way the crux is 20. The start is a bit sketchy too with no decent gear before the first bolt.

The crux feels harder than 20. No decent gear until the first bolt. The top has an overabundance of bolts, but they are not very well placed! Carabineers are loaded on their edges. Anchor is a tree that is awkward to reach.

Crux too reachy if short. Not much to belay from at the top, has to go way back to a tree - not great. I wouldn't bother as there are so many more worthwhile routes.

Crux was getting to the crack

Hard ring locks if you ignore the face holds

After Cedric sent on my gear, too hot to lead it again

A quick little send with Paul's shoes. A couple of thumb locks and crimps and it's over. It's not 20 if you face climb the sh*t out of it.

Reasonably straightforward narrow hands with feet everywhere

Good moderate trad climbing for the Blue mountains. Too bad it's so short.

This was awesome! Liked it a lot. My hardest trad onsight to date. Ringlocks were quite bomber! Used many a green cam (in the realm of 4) could almost be climbed without any other colour.

Depressingly Bluies: Easy once you abandon the pure crack ascent

Great short splitter, well worth the walk around from interstate 31 (which is why you came to cosmic today)

nicola went first and perfected the gear beta, and then i got to climb w the lightest rack of my life thus far

Pool your green cams for this one. Small hands were also definitely an advantage. The crack is a bit dirty in some places but overall a nice, compact route

hard first 3m for big hands. 2nd shot with gear in first 2m

3rd shot. First shot was a mistake about 3m up. Second shot I broke a footer off and took the fall. Not many fingerlocks, but a few obscure hand jams. 2 moves to the grade, but the climb is so short that by the time you're 6 metres up all the hard work is over. Worth a lap if you're in this part of cosmic, but don't make the trip over here just for this. Only takes 0.5, 0.75 and 1 cams.

Yeah... great warm-up climb... grade 20, off-fingers crack.

Very cool route! Had to sit on the rope as couldn't quite hold the thin jams to place gear. Once rested, found a better sequence up and the climbing eases off towards the top.

Some more 0.75s and the ability to jam that size would have been nice... eventually realised you can just about do it all by pulling between crimps and thin hands pods but had already fallen off by then 😆

Got too pumped, crimps much worse than remembered and still can't work out how to jam it

Just annoyed now

Perfect clean 30-35mm crack too small for hands and too big for finger locks with clean edges aplenty. Way out of my current leagues so dogged it via edges with occasional jam as the new breed will no doubt do.

nice jams, couple of sits in first half

took a while to work out sequence and placements to mini-rooflet (my 3rd piece) then retreated as the sun was basically at the horizon

Quite hard at the start , nice to climb without sticking gear behind the flake

Short but nice. Can't say I liked the bolts too much.

Quite fun, especially if you only use the tree for one low move
