26 The Cabal - with Kamil Sustiak Sport 15m Very Good
Satisfying to clean up an old dog from two years ago first try today. Which was surprising because I couldn't really remember what went on up there. There must have been some lingering muscle memory and/or right knee scar tissue.

24 The Lesser of Two Weevils Sport 10m, 4 Good
If these moves were 20m off the deck, it would be 28. But as they're 5m off the deck, 24 seems nearer the money. Kinda important not to escape too far R out of the line. Also, I think we can do better than "Unknown" for a name after a decade, so now it has one.

FFA. Has all those ingredients you want in a Pierces Pass multipitch. Some adventure, some easier climbing, some harder climbing, all well-protected on U-bolts but with a feeling of growing intensity as you get higher. If you've not been to this wall before, it's around 25 mins walk-in from the carpark to the base of the route, mostly on an excellent track (see Bladderhozen approach notes in guide). Climb, rap back down, walk out. Or combine with The Iron Throne or Bladderhozen for more sport pitch fun in the same zone.

25 Wipe Out - with Doug McConnell Sport 30m, 8 Classic
Between Mon 26 and Thu 29 Apr 2021, one of my quickdraws was removed from the traverse bolt. It's black, 25cm dogbone, Petzl biners. Slightly odd given the entire route and extension were geared up, and everything else was untouched. Maybe a cockatoo ate it?

14 years later apparently, now with trustworthy bolts. I would have called it an onsight but theCrag keeps me honest. You can kneebar your way through the start, if you're that way inclined.

Feedback on this one has been amusing. I truly think there is no move harder than 22, and it's not sustained. But if you approach it thinking it's going to be an easy warm-up you may be in for a shock.

28 Prince Of Darkness Sport 18m Very Good
The "moonboard crux" on the face is pretty punchy (V7 on the MB ). It may be impossible for the shorter climber just due to span. You want to pull with your left heel to go the distance. Not a good one to try in smeggy conditions.

Blackheath Area Celebrity Crags Oliver Stone
23 From The Depths Sport 15m Good
29 Fade To Black Sport 20m Mega Classic
I thought this was 30 when I established it, and it possibly was with the beta I used. Smarter heads prevailed with the beta, so now 29, and I've heard suggestions as low as 27(!) Time will tell. More importantly, it's a pretty unique piece of climbing for this part of the world. [10]

30 Total Recall - with Jason McCarthy Sport 25m Classic
FFA. V stoked. Trying on and off since last May. This route has a place on my list of memorable Blue Mountains dynos. And despite saying that, I don't believe it is particularly height dependent. Have at it! [10]

31 Casino - with Jason McCarthy Sport 8m, 3 Good
FFA. The things we do for 14 moves. As I said in the description this is virtually impossible to grade as the key move's difficulty is largely determined by arm length. Best thought of as a rope-protected boulder problem. 7 days work over 6 weeks.

25 Sliver - with @1293 Sport 25m, 13 Very Good
Placed the anchors and cleaned up this 20yo abandoned project. It's actually quite good if you like long adventurous sport climbing. Might even be soft at 25? Note to self: I still need to chop off a corroded bail biner. [2]

 
28 Basic Instinct - with @1293 Sport 25m, 14 Classic
Vaguely reminiscent of Sunnyside at the Pit. High stickclip to start; steep, moderate climbing for 6 bolts to a ledge below the quote-unquote slab. A baffling move to overcome the slab and then it's game on up the headwall on cool pockets to an improbable-looking, dynamic crux. [7]

21 Constrictor - with Sammi Mixed trad 18m, 3 Very Good
After botching it the other day and finishing up World Party, today climbed as intended.

 
27 26 Forked Tongue - with Sammi Mixed trad 25m, 8 Very Good
Obviously tricky (pointless?) to grade a reach dependent crux, but for me at 175cm of reach, this is worth 27. Climbed in one pitch via Anaconda p1. If you like stop-start routes, this'll be your jam. [3]

 
Thu 4th Apr 2019 - Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre
Taipan Wall - South
22 Anaconda Pitch 1 - with Sammi Trad 17m Average
As part of Forked Tongue. That bolt is now something of a relic.

 
21 Constrictor into World Party - with Sammi Mixed trad 20m, 1 Classic
Done by many others previously as this is the obvious straight-up line of climbing. Well worth doing at this grade and gives a great introductory taste of proper Taipan climbing.

Katoomba Area Ngula Bulgarabang/ Radiata Plateau The Pit Sector 'Sunny Side'
28 Pit Viper - with Emil Mandyczewsky Sport 25m Very Good
FFA. Good to use a bit of trip fitness to get a project done! Links Force Cannon into Farkenright via a long but safe runout (no new bolts). Climb all of the hard bit of FC to the horizontal break just before the ledge. Now bust directly right via a tricky boulder, then jugs across the break to the hourglass hold, continuing R as per Farkenright. Lots of roof climbing! Use a couple of slings or rollers to reduce drag. I was originally thinking 29, but this ended up going quickly, much quicker than Pit Boss.
