With Ray. Not bad. Easier lead than 'I am a Banana Expert' despite having a harder move. Loose rocks on the traverse to the rap anchor makes it dangerous having more than one party in the area. We had a close call when a loop of rope flipped a sizeable rock off. Needs a clean up there.

Backed off 1st pitch. Too pushy as 1st pitch after long break. Up start of Vandal then did 2nd pitch which I hadn't done before. Good fun moves.

Not bad. Thin gear on easier upper half.

Still very nice and at least a grade easier than Huey.

17 | Squirrel | 25m | Arapiles | Wed 9th Mar 2022 | ||||
Bit of a toughie. Logical to combine this with Marcias but best done as 2 pitches as you really want your belayer to be watching closely on the crux.

17 | Big Silver Rocket - with Ray, Norm | 20m | Arapiles | Sat 20th Oct 2012 | ||||
Attractive feature and nice moves through overhang. Took easy right-hand finish. Left-hand groove looks best finishing option. Abseil for Verge

17 | The Shipping News - with Rox | 68m | Arapiles | Wed 2nd Feb 2022 | ||||
Started up Hurricane Lamp Cracks. Was running first two pitches together when I encountered a death block on the traverse. Belayed early to keep control of the ropes near the block then Rox finished the short bit left of pitch, which was a bit scrubby and dirty. Rox led top pitch which had an exciting overhang which apparently looks pretty spectacular from Oceanoid. Worth doing the top pitch via The Shroud. The second pitch would have to lose its detached block to be a reasonable proposition.

Looks like the grade's going up these days. Very nice. Most seem to have trouble with the start.
