This thing is starting to feel conceivable now. I don't think I will have time for it to go on this visit to Australia but I'll return and project it properly in a few years. Have settled on (Mis)Information - the left-to-right version. Duncan is trying for a free ascent of the original. Think it would go at 27 or soft 28. Will focus on Hotwired for now though as that will go soon.

Stick clip RP problem? Lame. If that is the way this route goes to me that means it still hasn't been led. Add a bolt. Wouldn't exactly be a travesty anyway since the first footholds are bloody chipped. Nice climbing though. Figured out the moves on TR

28 17 M3 | Information | 40m | |||||
Duncan thinks this is "at least 28 maybe 29 or even 30". I don't know. Seems like it's about 2 grades above what I've red pointed before. Definitely the hardest stone I think I've touched. Gave three cam to cam burns on the first day but then seemed to have nothing in the tank on day 2. Think my strategy will be to get on this then take rest days on Hotwired and other projects.

Orroral Ridge Mushroom Rock | |||||||
True Grit | 30m | ||||||
The likelihood of this going free seems negligible but maybe possible. There are limited places for fingers in the first few metres but there are feet so maybe (just maybe). It would be very hard though - maybe gr32/5.14a. And heady. It also needs a solid clean as the upper crack is completely vegetated (difficult to guess how thin it is and if it's possible there)

Jam with care - the rock is spikey. A 5 star route - among the best in Canberra. Very technical jamming for the grade - cool sequence though. I'm looking forward to working this with Geoff and hopefully sending next session (denied today).

Lead up this cam-to-cam then had a top rope burn. Figured out all the moves. Links and better gear beta next. This thing is sharp and painful. I may even start taping up around here! Needs lower-offs - not sure how other parties have got off this in the past without leaving gear... down-aiding?

I led it first thing in the morning and fell. Seconded clean to retrieve the traversing gear so I could red point properly then came back before packing up and promptly sent. The crux is technical and flared and the gear is not stitch-up obvious. Would be an impressive onsight
