Carl managed to get up to the third bolt before I was even on belay 💀

Is taking a running jump start off of the tree at this belay considered a dab?

Piked out of this pitch halfway up and linked into the 17 on the left to finish instead

Slipped a few times getting the first few moves. Sore right foot didn't make it easy!

Best pitch of the route

Easy as then ledgey boulder problem at the end

This one was pretty straight forward, and don't really remember much about it. Still fun though, and a nice way to ease into things.

If you didn't want to climb this pitch, there's a pretty easy walk around to the right of it to get on top.

At the start of this, I really wanted to take a harder more direct route further to the right, using a decent left hand jug as a side pull; but even though I could get up that first move, I very quickly ran out of holds I could use to finish it off. Ended up just going to the left, using the tree as a bit of a foot, and basically just reaching straight up to the ledge above and pulling up onto it, which almost felt like cheating.

After the short walk, the step across to the 'main' part of this pitch made me have to think for a second, as it was a little intimidating stepping across the drop.

Was pretty fun though, some cool moves, and fairly decent features to work with.

From what I remember, this definitely felt like the easier of the two 17's on this climb.

This was a pretty cool pitch. It looks deceptively flatter/easier from the base of it than it does once you get on the wall.

I don't remember a lot about the start of this, I think I started off trying something more to the right, but then came back and approached it from the left in the end.

I remember there was one particularly tough part (crux) near'ish to the beginning where I had to trust some little crimpers/tiny toes to get through, definitely made some noise through that. Eases up again as the climb goes on, and the end of it was fairly clean/easy climbing.

The first 80-90% of this pitch is basically like a walk/rock scramble, WAY easier than an 18.. right up until that final boulder, which just looked impossible in comparison.

Spent a bit of time looking it over, but in the end I decided that I wouldn't be able to hold strong enough on the crimps and tiny toes that I could reach.

Ended up working my way up it by hanging on the rope/setting my position, pulling up on the crimps/feet that I had, then sitting back on the rope to do it all again. I think it took maybe 2-3 of those moves till I got to a position where I could properly climb the rest of the way up.

I never really expected I was going to get this one clean, but I'm pretty happy that I managed to get up it (albeit hang dog) without having to be pulled up/assisted/rescued.

Tried to go up at the start a bit of a hard way, had to try again using the tree.

Cool little powerful move right at the end!
