Sun 5th Mar 2023 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge The Cloisters The Cereals Buttress
Project Chris Warner (open) Sport 18m, 8
Only about 25. This should go down pretty easily really

 
Sun 5th Mar 2023 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Trojan Wall
23 Redshift - Blueshift Mixed trad 35m, 3
Rebolted. And largely brushed. Needs a bit more, and if anyone else gets on it before I get back to it (hahahaha) then you need a thinner diameter crab or two for the last bolt

 
Mon 3rd Oct 2022 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
Devil in my ear - Dane - with Nat Trad
Easier than Demon - needs a brush, and I'll consider a single bolt. Unfortunately putting it in the start would detract from Demon

 
Only for the Devil - proj Dane - with Nat Sport 6
Figuring this out again, still haven't got a real start

 
Sun 2nd Oct 2022 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Trojan Wall
26 Douráteos híppos - with Nat Sport 20m, 6 Good
26 Douráteos híppos - with Nat Sport 20m, 6 Good
Dropped the last tenuous move. Should just lead it once I have skin

 
Sun 25th Sep 2022 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Legoland North-west
24 Motown Sport 15m, 4
TR solo dog to get some tips back.

 
27 Technocrat Sport 20m, 5
Still really humid. This thing is still hard. I should spend some more time getting it done. Elbow not too unhappy

 
Mon 13th Jun 2022 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Legoland Atrium
21 Pas de Deux - with Nat Sport 12m, 4
Break in brand new shoes

 
22 Easy Wind - with Nat Trad 20m
Tr solo lap. Felt good.

 
25 Rentokill Surprise - with Nat Trad 20m
In brand new shoes. I trashed yesterdays ones.

 
Mon 25th Apr 2022 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Honeysuckle Crag Main Crag
20 Mel and Kim Go Boxing - with Hugh Newall Mixed trad 18m, 4 Very Good
Always fun, even if I'm not in the best shape

 
14 East Coast of South America - with Hugh Newall Trad 20m
Great fun, finished up Sickle

 
Wed 20th Apr 2022 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Legoland North-west
24 Motown Sport 15m, 4
2 shots, too cold, and my tips are only just starting to toughen up. I'll be back for it, if only as a change of pace

 
Mon 18th Apr 2022 - Orroral area
Booroomba Rocks North Buttress Northern Slabs
15 Ephemeros Mixed trad 75m, 3 Classic
Linkup Tachyon P1 and then some crack above as the last pitch on a CCA intro day

 
Fri 15th Apr 2022 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
26 Reckoner Sport 12m, 4
Felt remarkably close given my lack of climbing recently. All moves quickly, without looking at my old beta

 
Tue 28th Dec 2021 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge The Belfry
17 The Bat - with bri Trad 15m Very Good
Can't believe it took me so long to get on this.

 
Sat 30th Nov 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
21 Nomans Gland Mixed trad 10m, 2 Good
Quite nice climbing

 
14 Norm's Nees Trad 20m Good
Entertaining and old school. I want to do it on tubes and hexes

 
20 Oxygen Arete Mixed trad 15m, 1 Good
Good. The direct up the arete is probably nicer, but the easier moves over right where the gear is would be the lead route

 
Sat 23rd Nov 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Legoland Poachers
22 Bad Press - with Shane Murphy Sport 15m, 4 Very Good
Good fun, but quite hollow. Hard and pumpy in the sun, but a nice route. OS after the first move.

 
Sat 23rd Nov 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Trojan Wall
13 Labyrinth Trad 70m Good
nice run up this

 
14 Erstwhile Emus Trad 10m
Got to nearly the end of the hard bits. A few flakes are very close to coming off. Shoes might work better too, though they may destroy your feet if you fell. Could get gear at 4-5 m. maybe take a rope next time?

 
Mon 18th Nov 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
26 Reckoner (unknown) Sport 12m, 4
Third bolt up. Fingers were still glassy from Medina

 
21 Norsca Man Mixed trad 10m, 2
Nice features, nice moves. What's not to like? The old 80s steel has been replaced

 
Sat 16th Nov 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Mushroom Rock
13 False Sun Trad 15m
27 Funky Cold Medina Mixed trad 15m, 4
Only did the last bolt up. Felt quite reasonable. Glad the FA stopped at the crack, because the bolt and line above it is stupid hard. Definitely possible though

 
19 Five Go Mad on Mescaline Mixed trad 15m, 2
Sat 16th Nov 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge The Cloisters Simple Simon Slabs
10 Tarantella - with Paul Smith Trad 20m
Sat 16th Nov 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge The Cloisters Equinox Wall
20 Open Season - with Paul Smith Trad 20m Very Good
Very nice, tighter than expected, gloves may have been cutting off circulation or maybe I just worked hard

 
14 Sweetwater Wine - with Paul Smith Trad 20m
Nice, but needs a brush. Cool little section at the start keeps it interesting

 
Sat 9th Nov 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge The Cloisters The Hello Boulder
18 Sasha Cracka - with Paul Smith Trad 15m Very Good
9 Breakaway - with Paul Smith Trad 15m
With rlthe right, cocolossal top out

 
18 Rocketman - with Paul Smith Trad 15m
Nice climbing. Should have worn both crack gloves

 
19 Absent Friends - with Paul Smith Trad 7m
Damn hard, even for 19. Quite nice though a few more degrees would help

 
Sun 27th Oct 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
19 Darkling - with Bonnie Trad 20m Very Good
Quite nice, but need longer arms to collect Bonnie's cams

 
23 Get Smart - with Bonnie Trad 10m Classic
Quite nice. Tricky crux, but now brushed

 
Sat 26th Oct 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
16 Ebony Quill - with Bonnie Trad 15m Very Good
Good fun. The top needs a brush, but then it'll be in a regular rotation

 
Mon 7th Oct 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
26 Reckoner (unknown) - with Bonnie, Paul Smith, Shane Sport 12m, 4
A bit warm today, but good to remove a little more skin

 
17 The Demon Explores the Sea - with Bonnie, Paul Smith, Shane Trad 12m Average
More friable than you'd like. Recommend tr inspection and cleaning if you feel so inclined. The flake on the left at the top is pretty dodgy as well

 
Sun 22nd Sep 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
26 Reckoner (unknown) Sport 12m, 4
Did all the moves ground up. Felt easier than I remembered. Should go shortly

 
22 Fluorescent (Flourescent) Sport 10m
Very nice

 
Sat 24th Aug 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Echidna Rocks Right group
14 Galvin is my favourite (Another 80s line) Sport 25m, 6 Very Good
Quite a nice line up the slab

 
Sun 4th Aug 2019 - Orroral area
Booroomba Rocks North Buttress Determinant Sector
20 Wicked Witch of the West - with Jamie, Mixed trad 60m, 3
Really nice slabbing to finish at sunset

 
24 Rocketman - with Damo, Jamie Mixed trad 25m, 2
19 Madrigal - with Damo, Jamie Trad 25m
Very good climbing

 
Sun 4th Aug 2019 - Orroral area

nice enough, but a bit cold

 
Sat 3rd Aug 2019 - Orroral area
Booroomba Rocks The Practice Boulder
25 Doctor Slaughter - with Duncan Sport 15m, 4 Good
Too cold, saving some skin for tomorrow

Sun 2nd Jun 2019 - Orroral area
Booroomba Rocks North Buttress Northern Slabs
18 Balance - with Hugh Newall Mixed trad 130m, 1
Pretty sure I did the original, and the description here is a variant, Followed the crackline out left on the guidebook second. Good climbing with sparse gear

 
Sat 25th May 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Echidna Rocks Echidna rock
21 Look Hec - No Hands! Sport 10m, 2 Good
Not 21. Maybe 18-19 Tr solo, onsight

 
23 The Crocodile's Back Sport 18m, 5
Very nice and one of the best features around. Needs more traffic while it’s brushed

 
18 Watch Me Better Sport 8m, 2
Not 18. I’d say 16 would be more likely, though it needs a little more traffic to clean up

 
Sun 31st Mar 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Legoland Platform
21 Anakey to Life - with Bonnie Sport 20m, 6 Good
Quite nice climbing. If a little numbing

 
22 Going Grey - with Bonnie Sport 15m, 4
Holds? What is this? Also my legs aren’t happy with deep pistols after last week.

 
Sat 16th Mar 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Legoland North-west
24 Motown - with Bonnie Sport 15m, 4
Dropped the onsight at the last hard move, failing to get back to the arête

 
27 Technocrat - with Bonnie Sport 20m, 5
Hard. Thin

 
Sat 16th Mar 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Legoland Platform
21 Moonbeam - with Bonnie Sport 12m, 3 Good
Quite nice climbing

 
22 Forbidden Fruits - with Bonnie Sport 12m, 4 Very Good
This did not feel like granite. Very cool holds and moves. Fell when the foot popped.

 
22 Forbidden Fruits - with Bonnie Sport 12m, 4 Very Good
Really nice. The top bit does feel a bit more like granite

 
Sun 24th Feb 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Legoland Platform
21 Smear and Innuendo - with Bonnie Sport 15m, 4 Good
Bit harder than last time. And no ice on the footers. Make this a winter climb

 
Sun 24th Feb 2019 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
15 Chopper - with Bonnie Sport 18m, 4
26 Reckoner (unknown) - with Bonnie Sport 12m, 4
Did all the moves. Feels a lot better this year. Maybe a winter send?

 
15 Penny Direct - with Bonnie Sport 18m, 2
Sat 1st Dec 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
20 Dead Fingers Talk - with Bonnie Sport 15m, 3 Good
A few more holds need brushing, but most of it is good. And now stainless

 
23 Us and Them - with Bonnie Mixed trad 15m, 3 Very Good
Finally got it. Lead on two ropes, ditching the first when the bolts start. It’s a 20ish fists into the slab of Illusionary Lines

 
23 Illusionary lines - with Bonnie Sport 15m, 2 Good
I still think this is closer to 24, definitely stiff even if I cruised up it today

 
20 Zen Arcade - with Bonnie Sport 15m, 4
Needs a brush, add it to the list

 
Sun 18th Nov 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
15 Dead Fingers Run Trad
This should be fun

 
8 Heresy Mixed trad 10m, 1
7 Bolt for a bolt Sport 10m, 3
13 Short sighted Sport 10m, 3
This one could be quite cool

 
26 Reckoner (unknown) Sport 12m, 4
Did all the moves, having a fresh look with new eyes, I think it'll go this season if I get enough time on it. To the third should be easy enough, linking that to the top is a challenge

 
23 Slant Flying Mixed trad 20m, 2 Very Good
brushed up quite well, stay right till the second

 
20 Dead Fingers Talk Sport 15m, 3 Good
some cool moves up this one once the holds are brushed

 
Sat 10th Nov 2018 - Orroral area
Booroomba Rocks North Buttress Central Slabs
18 Outer Limit - with Damo Mixed trad 180m, 3 Classic
Swung leads, Quite nice easy slabbing. Took a variant 5th, up the sharp dihedral at 20+

 
Sat 10th Nov 2018 - Orroral area
Booroomba Rocks South Buttress Integral face
20 Euryproctus - with Damo Trad 10m
Hard. Retreated off the roof, but felt like progress might be happening. Try tape gloves not rubber next time

 
20 Integral Crack - with Damo Trad 48m Mega Classic
Great as always.

 
Sat 10th Nov 2018 - Orroral area
Booroomba Rocks South Buttress Peter Pan Area
23 Earthbound Misfit - with Damo Mixed trad 25m, 3 Don't Bother
Dog/retreat. Rock is crumbly. Won’t likely clean up. Could get it dialed, but not worth it. A wasted name

 
Sun 7th Oct 2018 - Orroral area
Booroomba Rocks North Buttress Northern Slabs
17 Equilibrium Mixed trad 140m, 2 Classic
Walk in the park after the alternate first. Traversed right after the second to come up the slab with as little scrub as possible. I’m done for the day.

 
20 Equilibrium Direct Start Trad 39m Classic
Holy shit. I’m alive. Definitely adds some spice. The crux might be protected, but nothing else is. Can definitely recommend tr inspection, this thing has teeth

 
Sat 6th Oct 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
23 Slant Flying Mixed trad 20m, 2 Very Good
Quite fun. And definitely not a 19, dunno why I thought that it was.

Mon 30th Jul 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge The Belfry
10 A Quarter to Three Mixed trad 12m, 4 Very Good
Quite pleasant. Cleaning the draws. Had my back on the right wall this time.

 
13 Belfry Access Route Trad 15m
Putting the ropes up.

 
13 Belfry Access Route Trad 15m
And another lap to clear the ropes

 
20 Territorial Sport 8m, 3
Hmm, maybe 20, I’ll reserve judgement till I try it in warmer weather. It’s not too bad, just a tricky move.

 
Sun 22nd Jul 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge The Belfry
17 The Belfry - with Bonnie Trad 50m
Like my first ascent a decade ago, possibly even colder.

 
Sun 15th Jul 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge The Belfry
20 Scoop - with Bonnie Sport 20m, 4 Very Good
Very good, some cool moves. But probably closer to 22 unless I was having a very bad day.

 
Sun 27th May 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge The Cloisters The Hello Boulder
18 Sasha Cracka Trad 15m Very Good
Still really nice

 
Sun 27th May 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Tower Rocks
23 Us and Them - with Bonnie Mixed trad 15m, 3 Very Good
Goddamn it. Another 2 shots. Still easy though the bottom. Slab is hard. First time failed beta, second time failed finger strength

 
7 Penny - with Bonnie Trad 20m
15 Chopper - with Bonnie Sport 18m, 4
Wed 25th Apr 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Legoland Atrium
22 Easy Wind - with Bonnie, Peri Bolton Trad 20m
First two cams in from the ill fated first attempt. This is way easier when you’ve got the first part dialed. Unfortunately that was several years ago. A good fight, but not too bad.

 
12 Full House - with Bonnie, Peri Bolton Sport 15m, 3
Found lower feet to start, seemed easier. Still not sold on 12 though

 
Sun 8th Apr 2018 - Orroral area
Orroral Ridge Sentinel Rocks
9 The Bannister Trad 20m
12 Cat Scratch Trad 15m Good
Taking photos

 
20 Lartigue (Lartigue P1)
