등정들 Serpent에서

Without the first 3 clipped so I could climb the fang direct (on the outside). Probably 20+ if you don’t touch any holds on the inside wall?

Also much easier to clean.

Best 17 I’ve done. Awesome rock, features, moves, holds and variety!!

That run out would be monstrous without the #4, but it is such a good placement. Also did a sling thread too! In fact, it still feels run out with both the sling and cam!! Used very long draws.

The extensions didn’t look worth it and the other climbs here looked… very unclimbed and dirty?

some of the best features in SEQ

Second try cleaning the route and it still felt hard!

Getting outta that cave is contortion albeit a super fun problem. Still tricky after that too. Very cool climb.

I had high expectations and it met them.

You shall pass Changed up some beta at the end of the traverse and it went

Hold has to be broken for sure. This was absolute nails.

Finally figured it out. Very unintuitive movement, but fine when it clicks.

Can get through the crux without much drama now First brunt I wasted abit of energy at the end of the traverse placing my heel hook where my hand needed to go And 2nd Burn I was too zoned in and went for the slot forgetting to grab the pinch block

Quite a tricky sequence to read, and solid at the grade even being tall. Definitely 24 if you're short.

Nails. Couldn't figure out the move getting into the bucket, Pandora's box seemed way easier. Hold broken perhaps?

Sick moves, doable but very sharp

Had two burns Had two falls at the Gaston dead point and then working out the mantel move after the traverse

Ended up finding better foot beta for the Gaston dead point

Connie's pretty bad raining all day

In the rain feels quite hard at the grade full on classic

Yeww! Managed to punch it out in between intermittent squalls.

Tricky move to read. Will be a lot easier on round 2

Trippy as

(Climb 32 of 50). Climbed as second pitch to minotaur. Great balancy, crimpy fun!

Climb 32 of 50 (strung together with Dantes Inferno as pitch 2). Minotaur is still one of the best grade 17 climbs in SE QLD, in my opinion
