攀登 climbed between 2021-06-01 和 2021-06-30 in World 如同传统攀登 或 运动攀岩 by David Jefferson having cleanbst

Thinkier than expected, with good rock. A quality line at the grade.

An excellent jamBing and stemming problem. Climbs more like a trad line.

Loved the flared hand jam/heel hook combo at the top!

Another excellent micro route at this gem of a crag.

Very difficult to read on the onsight attempt, but went down easily second go. Pretty bloody committing above the second bolt!

Super enjoyable movement going up the right side of the overhang, which is certainly easier than the advertised grade. Nevertheless, it's good quality and still packs a punch. Likely earns you 25 points this way.

I daresay this route deserves 3 stars, despite its diminutive stature. Unlikely, contorted movement makes this one a cracker!

Great warmup, serves up a bit of everything.

Sustained and continuously good for the grade.

Climbed through the crux easily second go, but still had to concentrate at the top. Quite a good route notwithstanding the glue.

Steeper than it looks, just like pulling plastic in the gym 🦾

Although the moves off the ledge through to the 3rd bolt are interesting, this route is marred by the fact that it is quite contrived, especially the top half where it would be silly to avoid the ledges out left. Served as a warmup in any case.

Managed to get it done second shot. This line serves up stonking stemming stances from bottom to top, with a bit of power and spice thrown in. Would be perfect I daresay once the holds (which to be fair are only 10 years old) clean up.

Unremarkable climbing, sharp and dirty.

Zero stars?? IMO this must be one of the better lines at Cattlestop. The glued hold is somewhat off putting, but the moves are good fun.

Well that was a humbling experience! Probably the only time it’s ever taken me 3 go’s to tick the grade. Apparently my slab technique has fully oxidised!

Barely independent of SJ, but worth doing.

Quite nice, crimpy climbing that feels longer than it is. One of the longest routes at the crag, with perhaps the fewest bolts.

Decent boulder problem warm up.

Better than expected roped boulder problem, but oh so sharp! Single bolt anchor.

Decent warmup, but not very interesting after the first couple of bolts.

A bit wandery, but with good movement throughout.

Definitely harder than the grade suggests. More like 23-24 IMO, but only for a move or two. Consistently good to the top.

Run out start on jugs with a slopey finish.

A bit tweaky on the fingers for the warm up! Fell figuring out the sequence at the 1st, lowered and sent. More sustained than many other routes here, which is welcome!

Hung at the 1st before figuring out the sequence, fired it from the ground second go. Listed as a 24 in the Burnell guide, which seems right.

Another line with a classy, thin crux that gives way to mank.

Good, crimpy moves quickly deteriorate to a dirty ramble.

Nearly everything was seeping massively today, so choices were limited. Fortunately, this line delivered with some great bouldery moves.
