	25	★★★ Air Malta - with Elliot Kals 1 23 30m Sport lead by Alec Landstra The mantle wasn't as heinous as expected, thank goodness 2 21 20m Sport lead by Alec Landstra Cool steep section, but a bit poorly protected off the ledge 3 22 60m Sport lead by Alec Landstra Great face moves off the deck, then a very enjoyable slab with some awesome tufa moves. Even the drop down traverse is great! 4 25 30m Sport lead by Alec Landstra One of the best pitches around! Sitting on that tufa is such a novelty! Great rock, position and moves! 5 23 20m Sport lead by Alec Landstra Nearly cooked this one when I committed to sequence that was very hard to reverse. Luckily I found the right way eventually 6 22 60m Sport lead by Alec Landstra Was expecting a chossy ramble to the top of the cliff, but ended up getting a fantastic long pitch on great rock!

A simply stunning adventure! Every pitch is great!

A dogalicious start to the day. Was very close to the OS on pitch one, but had to go in hard multiple times on the second pitch to rest. Felt pretty hard up high
	19	★ Hips Don't Lie - with Elliot Kals	Sport 25m		Alec Landstra

	22	★★★ Iron Curtain 1 21 35m Second 2 22 30m Trad 3 22 30m Trad 4 18 30m Trad	Trad 130m	★★ Very Good	Gavin
Took a long long time. Some very thin sections at the grade, definitely much harder than strangeness and harder than the start of evolution. Pretty sure we found the right line based on the description, but found it rather desperate.
	24	★★★ Evolution 1 15 15m Second 2 22 30m Trad 3 21 35m Second 4 23 25m Trad 5 22 30m Second 6 24 25m Trad 7 23 55m Second Mega route! And i actually liked the opening pitches, definitely better than iron curtain if you wanted to do a short multi. The top crux does require gear, and i placed a few acceptable nuts above the #2 cam. Still took a big fall from just below the last bolt. Everything apart from this is reasonable to dog up on the bolts.	Mixed trad 220m, 55	★★★ Mega Classic	Gavin

Brilliant and engaging all the way. A bit of a sandbag, especially for someone not practiced in committing run out climbing. Stopped at the bathtub

	22	★★★ Strangeness and Charm	Mixed trad 150m, 20		One Day Hero
Gave this a pretty decent brush, including the very nice top pitch. Also sorted out the rope snagging obstacles on the rap out of the hole.

	23 Hard	★★★ Right in the Bunghole	Mixed trad 130m, 13	★ Good	Brendan Coulter
“One of the best pitches in bungonia” is a bold claim when competing with the likes of Siblings of the Sun. This wasn’t even in the same weight class. Gets a star for the awesome and unique belay holes, but I didn’t find the climbing all that interesting. Lots of easy stuff interrupted by a (hard for the grade) crux. Dogged through the crux - turns out my finger isn’t better yet. A nice sustained sequence, a bit hard to read. Worth doing - not certain it was worth the walk out though

	22	★★★ Strangeness and Charm	Mixed trad 150m, 20	★★★ Classic	Brendan Coulter
Started via Wailing Cockatoo. Loved p3, and grateful it hadn’t rained recently, because the bath was dry. Finished up Wailing Cockatoo Direct Finish Took a double rack, and regretted it. I think I placed two cams, and never touched anything except my offset nuts and 1 hex.
	21 ~20	★★ Wailing Cockatoo Direct Finish P1 1 Trad	Mixed trad 65m, 10	★★★ Classic	Brendan Coulter
Was sitting in the bath tub, and this line looked better (had no clue where it went, or how hard it was). Absolutely loved the pitch! Was cruisy, edgy slab climbing the whole way. Didn’t do the last pitch, because it didn’t look worth it
	22 Hard	★★★ Wailing Cockatoo	Mixed trad 45m, 5	★ Good	Brendan Coulter
A rude reintroduction to slabs, especially with an injured finger. Fun, but wasn’t close to my favourite pitch of the day. Felt harder than everything else, but maybe I was just re-learning limestone. Started a bit further left and stepped across to avoid climbing through the tree

	16	★★ #2 In The Hole Variant Finish - with Michael Houghton	Trad 20m		Brendan Coulter
Was supposed to be #2 in the hole, but after committing to the groove instead of stepping to the tree, one thing led to another and a mostly-independent route was done
	16	★★ #2 In The Hole Variant Finish Variant Start - with Michael Houghton	Trad 20m		Brendan Coulter
Decided to have a top-rope play on some slabs, then realizing it was protectable (if bold), came back to do it placing gear
	17	★★ Red in the Shed	Trad 20m		Brendan Coulter
Following after Mike - committing not knowing whether that seam would take gear

	26	★★★ Siblings Of The Sun - with Michael Houghton 1 22 35m Second lead by Michael Houghton Surprisingly strenuous pitch, especially with the pack. 2 21 40m Second lead by Michael Houghton Just as I was starting this lovely, slabby traverse, the rain came in. Got myself quite scared, and a combination of wet holds, the pack, and not trusting my feet made me give up and step on the anchor for the downclimb from the last bolt 3 23 45m Second lead by Michael Houghton Solid lead by Mike, keeps going 4 22 35m Trad lead by Brendan Coulter A few fun moves almost makes up for the tree-induced rope-drag and the dirty chossy groove 5 21 30m Trad lead by Brendan Coulter Stiff 6 24 35m Trad lead by Brendan Coulter THIS is the money pitch! It’s almost good enough to make you forget about the first 5. Stoked with how well I read the route, and climbed smoothly in such an epic spot. 7 26 15m Trad lead by Brendan Coulter Got all the way to the last bolt before the pump caught up with my bad route reading. Tough little number, but surprisingly enjoyable. Quality chipping 8 18 20m Second lead by Michael Houghton Meh	Mixed trad 260m, 61	★★ Very Good	Brendan Coulter
A little bit of rain on-route obviously isn’t enough to scare us off - even if it did scare me a little. Stoked to get back out here and do a long route, and super glad I had Mike to rope gun some of those early pitches. Prefacing this: I LOVED the slabs on jumpmaster… Honestly though, skip the ground-up, and rap in for the top pitches. The 24 is worth every bit of effort, but the first 5 pitches were 1-star at best.
