Ascents by Bruno Alves Buzatto having Distinct route

This is certainly worth it for the view alone, and then there are some good bits of climbing in it, well done to the legends who bolted this, it would have been a hard line to find! The approach is also super easy (as long as you don't get stuck in the abseil like I did, but I ain't doing this mistake again!!!), and as long as you don't mind dirt and traverses, this is an awesome adventure.

WARNING: the line is quite a zig-zag, so be very careful when abseiling so that you don' go past the ledge with the anchor on top of pitch 3 (there are lots of ledges), where you need to start the second abseil. I was thinking I had to go lower, and I basically got to the end of the ropes without finding the anchor, and then had to prussic up ~40m, which took a LONG time and gave my hands blisters — all well deserved for being too relaxed about the abseils... I also found no string on the fallen tree where the route starts (as per the description), but the line of bolts was obvious enough that finding the start was easy once (finally!!!) on the ground...

P1: quite a fun climb, a bit of dirt/mud towards the end, but a nice overhanging problem at the start. P2: well, this is a unprotected walk... at least the trees mean a fall wouldn't be so bad? P3: absolute money pitch. All the mission to get here is worth it just for this pitch honestly. P4: some more traverse fun. P5: this starts ok, then it's a bit shit. Too much dirt, tree on the way, just a bit shit... P6: a sting at the end of the mission!! This is a bloody hard pitch to onsight, I guess the grade 19 is fair when you know what you're doing, and because it only really is 1 or 2 moves at the end. But still feels hard. To get it on the onsight is tough!!

Nice and delicate, hard at the end of the day!

This is sensational!! be careful with that traverse at the start!

A bit reachy, but what an awesome warm up!! Funky moves on the flake and close to the top with a left gaston. Awesome stuff.

As good as a sport route at this grade can possibly be if you ask me. Great slab, fun cave/break, and an amazing steep top on intelligently designed holds!

Another fun start, but with some spice at the top as well!

This is sensational, it's got it all — overhanging start, delicate face climbing, juggy overhanging arete, long moves, everything!! One of my favourite multis in the mountains. Pitch 4 for me had the most technical moves. Pitch looks intimidating as hell, but it's not that bad — but WHAT exposure! The best position, fantastic. Can't wait to go back!!

really good, but painful crimps at the top if you are not super tall! Ara, is that you who I tagged?!

This is absolutely sensational. Our 'rest day' climb recommended by Mark. That little roof and moving to arete later is the best exposure you can get. SO good. We linked pitches 1 and 2, and climbed with double ropes to get back down to the first belay from the top, and then to the ground. A bit of bush bashing as the QR code in the book gives you the wrong car park — the right one is about 200m further down the road.

Really good!! Don't love having to traverse a bit at the top, but such a nice mixed route. Oh, yeah, by the way, you should definitely take some gear up in my opinion, this is more of a mixed route... Maybe I'm just not solid!

What a fantastic outing, loved it. But the wind was INSANE, I guess 40 knots or something... The pinnacle that comprises the first 3 pitches is sensational, and so good to do such an exposed line at such moderate grades.

Better, less fingery!

tricky start, cool cave rest half way up!

I thought I had been on this before, but apparently not. Great climb!

We jumped on this thinking we were on Free Burma. We weren't. The second pitch is a great but bold lead! We made it to the summit, which was awesome. March flies, not so great.

My favorite route in this wall, sensational start, and then sustained and steep to finish. Again, the >30 knots winds made this ascent pretty epic! Alpine climbing in the wheat belt! I climbed with a scarf, beany, two jumpers, and socks inside the climbing shoes!

Quite a bit of loose stuff in the middle, I hated most of this, but the finish on the thin crack with ok feet was pretty great actually. I was pretty hungover too, maybe will have more fun if I am not feeling that sick next time...

First bolt looks high like in all routes here, but pretty easy climbing gets you there before you know it. Crux at the top is a matter of 'faith-slab-climbing'. Well protected where you need it!

Great warm up, physically and mentally, makes you think a lot at the top... But I'd only give it one star...

Super cool with a great mix of styles. Standing up without hands on the ramp is very awkward, the rest is straight forward!

This is incredible! I hadn't been on a multi pitch for a while, so the hang belay at the end of pitch 1 was spicy for me, but Em and I had a blast in the end One of my favorites in the blueys due to the nice grade and amazing views. Approach is great as well, just a 1h walk, not raps needed to start. So easy to bail in case the weather turns or something. We also saw a police chopper kick some kids out of Baltzar Lookout - do people base jump from there?

Tough start! Fun after.

I thought this was really really good actually, but I am happier calling it a mixed line. I placed quite a bit of gear to feel better on it and protect the second from massive swings...

Nice, I wish the crack at the start kept going for longer. I did without a #4, just a #3, but having a #4 would make it much safer.

A move in the middle that is trickier than it looks!

Good, but a bit too much "compressed" between the two neighbouring routes, it shares holds with the one on the left especially, which is a bit confusing. Unfortunately a crimp exploded when Che was climbing, right at the crux, so it might be harder now

Wow, this feels scary if you are not used to chimneys, and I am not! But it's an awesome chimney...

I wish François would let me log this as an onsight, as I only fell due to a completely unexpected "exploding jug" that sent me flying near the top of pitch 3! There was just no time to even feel scared, but I screamed like I was dying, haha... In any case — one of my favorite multi=pitches in the blueys, what AMAZING exposure and fantastic climbing. Not to mention one of the most fun approaches I've done in the mountains. Will come back with Emily.

I kind of mostly climbed this. Was there a hand on the grade 11 to the left? Maybe. But the description doesn't clearly say what's out, and I did still go through the overlap... Maybe next time I'll try wihtout that left hand at the start if I can find a way...

Yeah, this is ok, not sure it deserves 2 stars... A juggy but pumpy 19.

Good stuff, my favorite here so far, but I haven't sampled enough!

One of my favorites here, what a fun start!

A fun puzzle, feels super hard for the grade if you don't work out what to do at the crux!

I really liked this climb, probably one of the best of the grade in Mt Quarry?

I'll call this a flash cause years and years ago I got on it and bailed cause I thought the top was too scary. This time I crushed it, super happy about it. The only problem I find is that the second last bolt is too much to the left, it made me go on the next route on the left and then have to down climb back to this one... Plus, setting a top-rope for Heidi was complicated due to rope drag. You might want to top belay your second on this one and abseil down...

That start, damn!!

Again, challenging 19, until Em showed me how to do it!

Very fun, quite technical till third bolt, then you get an amazing rest, and the rest is easy...

I love the 'new way' to do this - definitely more interesting if you keep on the line and off the orange as much as possible...

Stoked to get this, given how hard it felt last time. I agree with others, grade 20. But if you know exactly what to do at the top it is not that bad...

Really fun at the top, but tricky crux at the start for the grade. I'm not gonna try to warm up on this again!

Awesome climb, intimidating start... I onsighted it a year ago, but somehow (got fatter, weaker or both) had a much harder time on it today...

Got all the moves on the second attempt, but a fall after the first bolt and no time to start over... Clipping the second bolt is scary, and you need full faith on tiny feet to do this. Gotta try again next time...
