등정들 South East에서 Iain Hunter에 의한

Misjudged in the dark how wet the second half might be. Dropped the onsight but excited to have a proper go sometime when dry.

Getting draws back for young Jack and his dad, Guy. Got reacquainted with the moves, didn't feel as hard as I remember it being. Excited for send burns.

Spicy

Sweaty

Done in crocs. Pity it's not taller. Would re-climb for sure if I came back.

v. cool

Glad I left the draws on overnight or I mightn't have been able to convince Igor to hike up the hill again and belay me. Sick line, worth the effort if you've done most of the 24s and 25s already at Brooyar and have a bit of spring in your legs.

First time catching the jump start. Made it to third, clipping beta let me down. Clean to top.

What an INSANE first move! Massive jump for 5'7" me. Never quite held it, but was able to climb bolt to bolt from the second + third holds to the top. Great climb, feels doable - the dyno start will go with enough attempts and finger strength.

Pinkpoint be cruisy. Stick clip magic'd itself into an alternate dimension earlier in the day, only for it to perform a bunny-out-of-the-hat style reappearance post-send. Thanks for the concern everyone! Lovely crew out here today, love to see it

Always a pleasure

Reclaiming draws, made an oopsie.

Igor's first at the grade, which he claimed second attempt. おめでとう！

Redpoint do be tough

Faffed going through the crux and took the winger. Frustrated the beta wasn't as solid in my mind as I thought. Next time!

Dropped it at the crux, sad that Tom's beta doesn't work for me :-(

A perfect and lovely experience. Fifth tie-in over three weekends.

Fumbled it trying to clip the chains. Next time it goes 😊

Much easier than yesterday. Slipped out of the final kneebar on the last move.

Clipping the draws was the hardest part. Last move is also a bit how's it goin'

ahh, now I remember

Beta: lost in the memory.

Cleaning

Never have I pulled onto a wall feeling this close to heat exhaustion before. Bloody hot day, didn't cope well.

Beach for swims and sandwiches after climbing was great fun. The climb was good too.

Cleaning. Fun route.

While resting on the jug at 3rd, kinda realised I'd gone the wrong way. Had to downclimb back through the shallow pockety crimps to get to 2nd again, then went up left instead of right to finish the climb. Should have read the description.

Was intending on doing Troposphere but Igor forgot his shoes. Luckily he fits into my Instincts!

Felt like: magic

Attempts today: one

Coffee count: two

Poo count: three

Cleaned. Mad props to Belle for the onsight. She even skipped the last bolt! Why clip what you don't need??

Went second shot.

Blew the onsight clipping third from a poor position. Cheers for the catch, Jarred

Freed all but one move. Brutal. Can't understand how this could be only 26.

Absolutely butchered retrieval of draws. Never again, thanks team.

"local bees"

sorry 😂

Pretty sure I did this once in 2020.

One hang. Exciting.

Cleaned. No falls today. Probably my best day of sport climbing to date.

Retro-flash? Dogged this once in 2020 or 2021.

One attempt yesterday, went first shot this morning. Send train with Steve.

Burly middle section. Potentially less of a problem with good condis.

Finally done.

Fell grabbing the last hold of the crux on the fourth tie-in. Discovered even more efficient beta for the crux and subsequent top-out, but wasn't fresh enough physically or mentally to send on the final attempt of the day.

Inspired by Nicole's beautiful send directly before. Bumbled my way up through the boulder cruxes. Ironic.
