攀登 of Pot of Gold

Totally misread this and used all the wrong holds. Pumped out and gave up.

Just amazing

got to the top this time, but didn't enjoy it. a lot of the moves feel reachy to me, and there aren't a lot of feet.

shut down in the run out between the 6th and 7th bolt. should have bought a nut to place in the crack.

Very classy arete

Just about mega classic. So very very nice.

Climbing like a clown, got to the run outs and pooed. Climbing was beautiful until I lost my head.

Just spectacular. Continuously difficult the whole way, but with plenty of rest stances, and an increbile variety of climbing. Pumpy, overhanging crux start (figure out where you want to go before leaving the ground!), then delicate, balancy slabbing, then a final, committing bouldery move getting around the bulge past the final bolt.

Definitely take a BD C4 #1 size cam, as it is quite runout from the final bolt to the anchors. (The placement, about 3m above the final bolt, tapers down perfectly, so a large nut would also work.) Micro nuts are also very useful for a thin crack after bolt 7, which will take a large RP or small aluminium nut.

yeea probs 22 more than 21.. fell at the crux. hard to spot the holds.

Much easier when you know where the holds are! P1 only. Went up on top-rope to clean it after someone else had finished leading it. The bolts up the slabby upper section are quite spaced, but it looked like there were opportunities for micro nut placements between bolts 7 and 8, a BD #1 size cam between bolts 9 and 10 (just prior to the awkward traverse), and then a BD #.75-1 cam or large nut between bolt 10 and the anchor, with the last placement being particularly justifiable.

Spent way too much time searching for the holds on the initial overhanging section. Rested on the 3rd bolt (crux), then pumped out, gave up, and lowered off after the 5th bolt. It definitely would have helped to try to spot the holds more from the ground before starting!

Did the first pitch: My new favorite at Dreamtime. Nice move into rest into nice move...

Sweet, sweet honey pot of Gold! Great climbing indeed, consistently at the grade (21). We did extract about 30 kg of handhold-gold from this climb from about 15-20 meters up!

Fell off the start. Should be easier second time around. Only climbed the first pitch
