攀登 in Top End

Shredded heaps of skin on this. Steep offwidth with a crux after most of the hard work. Had to walk away with my head down, hardest crack in NT?

Pump inducing boulder - perhaps 20m long?

Took a few attempts to work out the beta, now require the endurance to send. Got through the first ‘section’, 3 more to go …. Maybe another session this trip?

Opening the Darwin climbing with what appears to be an art installation …..

Nonetheless, some interesting holds and body positioning.

Mainly bolt to bolt. Most sustained route at the crag, tricky. Amazing limestone like rock at the bottom.

TOok a little bit to remember the crux beta with no chalk. Pumped off the top on the 2nd shot. Unreal.

Awesome to be back here. As good as I remember, other than the bolts I put out right to far.

Great to repeat 8yrs after I did the FA. I was pumped, great sustained route.

Dabbling in the ways of the top rope tough guys

Beautiful holds up high, fun boulder everything is a bit soft though.

Also a weird crux move. The bolting placement was odd at the last two bolts. The slab was a blast though.

Strange crux move for 11. But the rest is a cruise
