Amazing route - well worth doing on its own if you can find the top of it. Have to say it felt exceptionally sustained for a 15. There's a decent 12 to 15 m section of continuous jamming/laybacking with no rests. I had to bump a few cams and if you told me it was a 17 I'd believe you! Made it about halfway up before resting. The top stays very wet after rain and I basically bellyflopped onto the slick belay ledge for a break. Jason did a sterling job grunting his way up, spurred on by threats of having to rap back down to the bottom and walk out! Starting P2 is also much more challenging after rain. Everything was glassy smooth but somehow neither of us came to grief. Awesome experience and one for the repeat tick list if I ever get stronger.

Insanely good day out! Arrived to find the bottom gate closed, which added an extra 6 km of hiking to our trip but helped burn off those Christmas calories. Crashed about at the top looking for rings and eventually rapped down what turned out to be Nothing Left. First two pitches were immense. Can't be many climbs where you get to jam, layback, bridge and then slab all in the first 40 m! Made a minor error overkeenly reading the topo description and thought I had to climb the thin crack splitting the slab to reach the layback section. Made for a nice bonus pitch coming back down and I'd say is similarish in difficulty. The traverse on P3 was epic and made sure Jason's first multi will be remembered. Pitch 4 is not to be underestimated... The diagonal rightwards crossing of the break is tricky to get on and off, and I couldn't figure out any way to protect it against a ledge fall. In hindsight I'd recommend putting something in on the left before starting out, even though it feels way off line, but I might have missed something. After that it's miles of bush-bashing that had me wondering what was going on, but then I saw P5 and everything made sense! P5 is brilliant - more on that below. The whole thing was very much worth the trek, but in retrospect I'd hesitate taking a beginner up it again, even if they are strong like Jason.

Sweet climbing, although the beginning is absolutely buggered. Everything I touched promptly fell off. Interested to learn why adding bolts to the start was so controversial. You'd have to be doubly hard-as-nails to even think about leading it now.

Lead almost all of it, with a few scary runouts in the rain.
Lead pitch 1 of trachy Matt lead a short pitch 2. I followed, thought "this is easy" and a second later fell. Lead final pitch almost a full 60m as the rain started |

no one:
me, a trad noob: I'm gonna lead the trad hand jam roof pitch! An excellent climb with an entertaining combination of hand and fist jams, a chimney, some laybacks and also a hand jam roof section! The slabby feet for the roof jam were slick with seepage which made it a pure roof crack climb, beyond my current abilities. I will have to come back with better foot jam technique to reattempt the second pitch. Also there is a surprise third pitch of choss to top out if you don't want to do some unprotected traverse to finish off on Thor |

P1 only. The upper pitches were completely wet and unclimbable, and P1 was half under the "extended" water streak. A great climb with some bloody exciting runouts, made harder when half the holds are under water and thus unusable. A varied, old-school, wandery-but-logical ramble of a pitch. I broke off a hold right near the final mantle (after ALL that) and whipped onto the rusty bash-in carrot that I'd "clipped" with a wire.

Put a 30cm sling on the bolt but still not quite enough to pull through the crux on the slightly lichenous hold. Remind me to move the bolt down and brush the holds next time!
