Ascensões em Wilyabrup por Joe Gordon

Found it tricky.

Insanely good and fun to just romp up this. Can imagine it’s a different story on lead.

Onsighted to the second last bolt and then backed off. Didn’t think I’d get there so wasn’t really preparing for the major runout mentally. Will be back. Such a classic route.

First trad lead. Did it on top rope before leading.

So good, Did all the moves. Placed a cam. Would love to come back and send.

Played on the first bolt crux. Tricky and powerful. Will need to come back when I can trad climb.

Need to get revenge on this. A little gripped by the longer run outs, spoogy rock in the sun and hard to read sequences (for me). Epic route though and I can imagine myself doing it many times.

Got pretty shutdown on this. Awesome line. Deserves more attention.

Wow. Probably the coolest boulder I’ve tried. Made some good progress. Didn’t try the top.

Fun one. Mini mini mini dab. Went to repeat and did an even minier dab. Dabs did not help.

Great little training spot.

Took the most attempts out of the lot. Didn’t use finger lock beta but used the holds.

Hung the draws, ticked the holds and then sent it. Would have been nice to place some gear. Heady for me. Long run outs. Hard moves are well protected. I really enjoyed the 6 hard moves in the middle.

I found it a bit awkward.

Great little warmup. I wouldn’t know how to lead this on trad gear.

Sustained edging from the first bolt to the break. Well done if you can onsight this.

Happy to pull through. Did the crux again on the way down. Next time will have to give a lead burn. It’ll be a bit spicy at the top.

Solid lead from Marc! Thin crux.

In the rain. Made it hard. Just pulled on the draws to get through the crux.

Added a few pieces of gear above the third bolt for practice and to feel good.
