That's My Blood
![]() | Beaver Valley | Average | Sat 8th Jun 2013 | ||||
Decent climbing, crack is broken enough that pro is not confidence inspiring. Lots of placements, just never quite sure they would hold. Also, a bunch of loose, mostly small, rock.

★★ Bye Bye Mother
![]() | Beaver Valley | ★★ Very Good | Sat 8th Jun 2013 | ||||
A couple intimidating bits, and reaching the anchors from the final ledge under the roof was kind of scary. Well worth climbing.

★★★ Camel
![]() | 25m | Halton Region | ★★★ Classic | Sun 9th Jun 2013 | |||
Surprisingly steep and pumpy for a 5.7 -- but generally good, positive hand-holds everywhere, even if smearing with feet at times. Gear seemed reasonably good, at least for escarpment limestone.

★★ Jay
![]() | Halton Region | ★★ Very Good | Sat 31st Aug 2013 | ||||
Felt burly for a 5.5. Generally good gear, though a couple times not the best stance when placing a piece.
Did the finish up the shared section with "Camel" to have lower-offs, rather than the traverse and up finish. |

5.4 |
★★ Double Lead
![]() | 25m | Halton Region | ★★★ Classic | Sat 31st Aug 2013 | |||
Surprisingly good climbing given the blocky-looking start. The exit left from under the roof is a wonderfully exposed, comitting move for a 5.4 (or 5.4+) climb.
I chose to finish right (apparently harder) to use the anchor's for Reg's route. The step across at the top is a bit tricky. |
||||||||
5.5 |
★ Four No More
![]() | 14m | Halton Region | ★★ Very Good | Sat 31st Aug 2013 | |||
The start is a bit hidden, but worth finding. Definitely a good route, and takes good gear.
Belayed on gear at the top. then walked rightwards to a rap anchor from something and rapped off it. |

★ Spring Thaw
![]() | 20m | Halton Region | ★ Good | Sun 1st Sep 2013 | |||
Fun climbing up the crack, with decent gear, including a couple chockstones to sling.
Off-width upper section is easier (though a bit scarier) climbed outside the crack than in it. |

![]() | 12m | Halton Region | ★★ Very Good | Sun 22nd May 2016 | |||
Nice and surprisingly varied climbing for a short climb -- starts with face, then stemming in a corner, then a short hand-jam crack.
First gear is a bit high, though. |

★ The Old Breed
![]() | 22m, 12 | Halton Region | Average | Sun 9th Jun 2013 | |||
Got to the crux, failed to pull it several times, escaped right to the good holds on Positron, then back to the route. Not my best climb, and not a good send.
|

5.10b |
★★ Wasp in Space
![]() | 15m, 9 | Halton Region | ★★ Very Good | Sun 9th Jun 2013 | |||
Lots of big moves on good holds up steep terrain, with a couple little technical bits. Felt just like an over-hanging 5.10 climb.

★ Zoomba
![]() | 15m, 8 | Halton Region | ★ Good | Sun 1st Sep 2013 | |||
Didn't have a name or grade -- just looked at it, and thought it looked like it would go without problem. Also, the bolts were so close together, it wouldn't get scary. I was right on both counts.

★ Mull-icious
![]() | 7 | Beaver Valley | ★ Good | Sat 8th Jun 2013 | |||
It was wet, making all the friction moves a lot more committing feeling -- not the easy 5.5 warm-up I was expecting. If dry, I think it would be a lovely easy sport climb.

★ Madames Deconvience
![]() | 15m, 7 | Halton Region | ★ Good | Sun 9th Jun 2013 | |||
I found the traverse to the 2nd bolt a bit pumpy and hard, while making the technical crux after the 2nd bolt easily.

★ Sun Worshiper
![]() | 11m, 6 | Beaver Valley | ★★ Very Good | Sat 8th Jun 2013 | |||
Book as 5.9+, and really felt that plus. Lots of tricky technical moves that don't let up. Lots of committing moves. Climb straight up to the first bolt for full value.

★ Bei Tageslicht
![]() | 11m, 6 | Halton Region | Average | Sun 9th Jun 2013 | |||
Casual, casual, casual, casual, OMG the bulge...where's the jug to make this 5.5... there isn't one... ok, pull the move, finish.
Felt like a bunch of 5.3, then one 5.7 move. I guess that averages out to 5.5, right? And the one move is well protected by a (high-clipped) bolt. |

★ Helios
![]() | 10m, 5 | Beaver Valley | ★ Good | Sat 8th Jun 2013 | |||
Pretty good.
After about the 4th bolt, climb stop drifting right, but veers back up and left. Don't be fooled by the bolt to your right that looks like you could traverse right to it. It's not on this climb. (It looks like there might be a climb up the upper face, and this bolt might lead to the base of that climb.) |

★ Captain Cave Man
![]() | 10m, 5 | Halton Region | Mon 20th Jul 2015 | ||||
Used the good holds on the thin crack, so probably only got the 5.9 experience. Pumpy and thuggish for a short climb.
|

5.8 |
★ I'd Rather be at Whites Bluff
![]() | 10m, 5 | Halton Region | Mon 20th Jul 2015 | ||||
There's a beta-intensive move; a push for a completely invisible from where you make the move sidepull. After falling, I spotted the hold, and did the move -- but couldn't see it to figure it out on the wall. Even knowing the hold was there, the move was completely blind.

★ Trauma Belay

Easy lower down, a couple harder moves on the upper head wall. Not particularly exciting.

★ Don't Drink and Dive
![]() | 14m, 4 | Halton Region | Mon 20th Jul 2015 | ||||
With old guide book, thought this was a 5.9 -- not 5.10c. It didn't go very well.

Best moves are above the anchor. Not sustained.

★ American Lightweights
![]() | 8m, 3 | Halton Region | Mon 20th Jul 2015 | ||||
Being a trad climber, I avoided most of the lay-back bits by doing a couple of hand-jams; and only switching to a layback for the last move or so up the crack.

I jammed rather than laybacked.

★★ Morning Star
![]() | Beaver Valley | ★★ Very Good | Sat 8th Jun 2013 | ||||
Consistently good climbing with not always obvious moves.
I didn't like the fractured-feeling white rock near the top of the climb -- didn't want to trust it, but everything held. |

5.10c |
★ Grim Thin Flake
![]() | 25m | Halton Region | Average | Sun 9th Jun 2013 | |||
Took one fall at the opening crux, then solved it, and got the rest clean. (The crux had really stumped both my climbing mates, was nice to get it much faster.)

5.10c |
★ Thunder Road
![]() | 12m | Halton Region | Average | Sat 21st May 2016 | |||
Easy climbing to a short crux section, then an easy finish. Took about 3 tries in the crux section.
