	17	★★★ Flake Crack - with Sammi 1 17 15m 2 17 15m 3 23m	Trad 53m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sun 18th Jul 2021
I'm surprised there's not more prangs on this. The layback is pretty slip-off-able and big cams aren't always the best things in the world. Having a couple of #4 camalots for the flake would be prudent rather than relying on one.
	26	★★★ Rattlesnake Shake	Mixed trad 35m, 7	Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre	★★★ Classic	Mon 14th May 2007
This was probably the second ascent. No idea why it's not logged on theCrag. Lucky I have good old reliable 8a.nu as a backup.
	25	★★ Crystal Ships	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Tomaree Head	★★★ Classic	Sun 18th Feb 2007
Happy not to blow this punchy number. Intricate upper section on RPs almost had me stymied. Not a pure onsight as I'd rapped past it.
	25	★★★ Samarkand - with @1293 1 23 15 lead by @1293 2 25 35 lead by Lee Cujes 3 23 20 lead by @1293 4 22 35 lead by Lee Cujes 5 22 20 lead by @1293	Trad 130m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Sat 29th Dec 2018
I led the even pitches and Aaron the odd and even better — all onsight, a no falls day. . It was pretty close for me on the crux pitch as I happened to run out of the cams I needed for the crux section at the 30m mark. I placed some pretty junky gear and hesitated for a long time, hanging off a jug on an overhang before finally committing to the overhung off-finger-sized crack. In full sport climbing mode I laybacked up it, got one working fingerlock and swung out of the layback (and almost off completely) before latching a jug with some desperation. It was exciting! . Fun morning with a great (ever psyched) friend and back home in time for lunch. Very pleased to have finally done this one, and keen for more
	24	★★★ Worrying Heights	Trad 30m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Sun 7th Aug 2005
My second Frog 24 onsight. Felt great.
	24	★★ Plate Tectonics	Mixed trad 18m, 2	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Sun 7th Aug 2005
7/8/05: 2nd. 3/5/03: My hardest onsight to date. I was so off this!
	24	★★★ Walk the Plank - with Cass	Mixed trad 30m, 3	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	Sat 30th Dec 2006
Oh Cass, the memories! It was worth it wasn't it? You're in the guidebook now!
	24	★★ Hate Mail - with Neil	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	Sat 30th Mar 2013
A Monty route, climbed with Monty. Some of the best rock around up high, pretty impressive. You have to jam a cam in a critical pod which is your handhold which I actually thought was cool. Don't be put off by the rusty U-bolts, they're fine. Needs some stainless mallions added to anchor.
	24 M4	★ Thumbs Up - with Duncan 1 24 25m 2 M4 27m 3 15 40m	Trad 92m	Blue Mountains	Average	Sat 9th Mar 2019
p1 only. Snapped a hold and started falling, looked down and saw trad, and found another gear - overdrive.
	24	★★★ The Thin Line of Reprieve P1 - with Aaron Jones 1 Trad	Trad 38m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Tue 26th Mar 2024
Accessed via 80m rap and swing. p1 onsight, then rapped and stripped the gear for Azza's flash. Really fantastic pitch of climbing. Rather than p2 which was wet and vegetated, climbed p2 of Charlie Don't Surf which was actually harder than p1.
	23	★★ Monkey on a String	Mixed trad 120m, 4	Frederick Peak	★ Good	Sun 2nd Aug 2009
2nd p1, OS p2. Pitch 2 needs some chains on the slab, not the dicky 15m trad sketchfest above. p3+p4 not done.
	23	★★ The Guns of Navaronne	Trad 30m	Frog Buttress	★ Good	Sat 27th May 2006
Had to remember what to do with trad gear. A sorry sight.
	23	★★ The Seventh Banana Pitch 1	Trad 20m	Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre	★★★ Classic	Thu 2nd Mar 2006
beautiful, and not hard
	23	★★ Fuzzy Logic	Trad 25m	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	2007
Another ongoing megaline.
	23	★ Tally-Ho The Fox	Trad 25m	Brooyar	★ Good	Sun 2nd May 2004
Holds were full of sand. Obviously hasn't seen an ascent in some time! I employed an interesting crotch-mantle technique.
	23	★★★ Liquid Insanity	Mixed trad 35m, 4	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Mega Classic	Sun 20th Apr 2003
Felt like around 1.5 hours on the lead.
	22 23	★★ Maponus (Maponus p1)	Mixed trad 25m, 2	Mt Tibrogargan	★★★ Classic	Sat 27th Mar 2004
Remembering how to climb trad. Excellent pitch.
	23	★★ Maponus (Maponus p2)	Mixed trad 25m, 2	Mt Tibrogargan	Average	Sun 1st Oct 2006
Not as good as it looks unfortunately.
	23	Liquid Skin - with JJ	Mixed trad 18m, 5	Mt Tibrogargan	Average	Sun 4th Nov 2012
Start was a vomitorium. You're lucky if you get to climb this dry I think. Overall, a bit weird.
	24 23	★★ Some Weird Sin	Mixed trad 30m, 7	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	Sat 30th Dec 2006
Dodgy guidebook meant I needed to have brackets dropped to me from the top on the onsight. Team onsight? Sam did awesome photos.
	23	★★ Last Man Standing	Mixed trad 25m, 5	Point Perpendicular	★★ Very Good	Wed 23rd Apr 2014
Don't be so hard on yourself Monty - this route is as good as any of the others. Nor does it feel squeezed in to me. I notice people are avoiding the grade 23 finish by going right to the anchors on SS Minnow.
	23	★★ Radios Appear - with Sammi, Erik Smits, Kathryn Gardner	Mixed trad 25m, 3	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Sun 5th Jul 2015
Three bolts and lots of trad. Haven't done anything like this for a while and if this was any harder I would have been flying.
	23 23 R	★★★ The Seventh Pillar Left Hand Variant - with Sammi	Mixed trad 46m, 1	Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre	★★★ Classic	Mon 1st Apr 2019
Full version including the pants filling traverse.
	22	★★★ Northern Exposure	Mixed trad 30m, 6	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Classic	Fri 18th Apr 2003
Continuous
	22	★★★ Sea Monsters	Trad 22m	Eagle Rock	★★★ Mega Classic	Fri 13th Mar 2009
The craziest pitch of this grade anywhere. Leave work and GO DO IT!
	22	★★ Short And Sweet	Mixed trad 8m, 2	Coffs Harbour		Sun 1st Apr 2001
soft
	22	Big Mouth Short Crack	Trad 20m	Brooyar	Average	Sun 13th Jun 2004
Finish up bolted corner (FH's). The original bolted start has been swallowed under a lichen forest.
	22	★ Flight Sensation	Trad 15m	Tomaree Head	Average	Sat 17th Feb 2007
Not the warmup I was expecting
	22	★ Blasphemy	Mixed trad 15m, 1	Arapiles		Sat 9th Nov 2002
#3 RP to keep you off the deck
	22	★★ Hidden Secrets	Trad 25m	Arapiles		Wed 20th Nov 2002
	22	★★★ Yankee Go Home	Trad 26m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Sat 5th Jul 2003
Sustained thin crack. This went surprisingly well. (also 2nded 16/5/04)
	22 22 R	★★★ Memorable Moves	Trad 30m	Point Perpendicular	★★★ Mega Classic	Mon 21st Apr 2003
"** BRILLIANT!" Regardless of the 23's and 24's I've onsighted, this could be my hardest onsight to date. It took 100% out of me. I actually fell out of the seam and caught myself on a face hold!
	22	★★ Sea Of Fools	Mixed trad 15m, 4	Brooyar		Fri 1st Sep 2000
	22	★★★ Child in Time	Trad 25m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Mega Classic	Fri 11th Jul 2003
Onsight in the rain. That's what I'm talking 'bout!
	22	★★★ Los Endos	Trad 40m	Arapiles		Thu 21st Nov 2002
Very intricate and sparse protection. No moves are particularly extreme, but it's runout, commiting and majorly exposed. One of my better onsights.
	22	★★ Cecilia	Mixed trad 25m, 4	Arapiles		Mon 11th Nov 2002
Did the giant leap on the start (gulp!)
	22 22 R	★ Emu-less	Mixed trad 12m, 2	Mt Tibrogargan	★ Good	Sat 27th Mar 2004
Erik fell into the rectolotomy tree when seconding. This would be bad if you fell on lead!
	21 22	★★★ Black Light	Trad 25m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Classic	Mon 1st May 2000
	22	★★ Rock the Clock	Mixed trad 30m, 3	Point Perpendicular	★★ Very Good	Sat 30th Dec 2006
Like an easy version of Some Weird Sin
	5.11b	★★★ B3 - with Sam	Trad 30m	Red River Gorge	★★★ Classic	Fri 26th Oct 2012
Hardest I worked all day. Pretty epic trad route given 5 stars. Only 1 usable cam for the first 15m. Climbing high twenties sport routes is surely the key to being able to JUST get up something like this
	22	★★ Stormbringer - with Sammi	Mixed trad 20m, 3	Wilyabrup	★★ Very Good	Sat 18th May 2019
Lovely rounded sloper holds.
	21	★★★ Silk 'N' Steel	Trad 20m	Coffs Harbour		Sun 1st Apr 2001
	21	★★ Thunderbirds Are Go	Trad 20m	Point Perpendicular	★ Good	Fri 5th Jan 2007
Not all it's cracked up to be.
	21	★★ Ronald Muck	Mixed trad 45m, 9	Mt Tibrogargan	★★ Very Good	Sun 29th Oct 2006
Climb in one 45m pitch. Good, heady climbing. You need to crank moves above your gear and not fall.
	21	★★★ A Taste of Honey	Trad 27m	Arapiles		Tue 19th Nov 2002
hardest. 21. ever!
	21	★★ Rigor Mortis	Trad 35m	Kaputar		2001
	21	★★★ Cock Corner	Trad 30m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Fri 1st Mar 2002
	21	★★★ The Black Arete	Trad 22m	Tomaree Head	★★★ Mega Classic	Sun 18th Feb 2007
Amazing unlikely moves, intricate gear, a crazy balance traverse Pamela Anderson couldn't do. What more could you ask for?
	21	★★★ Rock Sex Direct Start (RS Direct Start)	Mixed trad 25m, 4	Mt Stuart	★★★ Classic	Wed 1st Jul 1998
	21	★★ Danny DeVito p2	Trad 20m	The Pulpit (private land)	★ Good	Sun 31st Jul 2005
Linked with Rumple p1 and p2 into 60m mega-pitch.
	21	★★ Fluid Journey	Trad 40m	Frog Buttress	★ Good	Sat 3rd Jun 2006
The upper bit was desperate for me.
	21	★★★ Conquistador	Trad 45m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Mega Classic	Wed 1st Nov 2000
	21	Floater	Mixed trad 20m, 7	Mt Tibrogargan	Don't Bother	Sat 20th Jan 2007
Some scary rock past the second FH (needs some more cleaning)
	21	★★ Australia's Hardest Climb - with Sam	Mixed trad 15m, 4	Point Perpendicular	Average	Sun 31st Mar 2013
Maybe I'll make the news!
	21	★★ Not All There	Trad 25m	Point Perpendicular	★★ Very Good	Sat 19th Apr 2014
This was really nice, not the best to warm up on as the start is quite hard.
	21	★ Spangled Drongo - with Sammi, Erik Smits, Kathryn Gardner	Mixed trad 20m, 5	Blue Mountains	Average	Sun 5th Jul 2015
Thin crux 5 grades harder than the rest.
	21	★ Middle Finger - with Duncan	Trad 25m	Blue Mountains	Average	Sat 9th Mar 2019
Nah, it’s the ring. A bit spicy getting around the roof, as evidenced by the dude who took two massive whippers attempting.
	21	★★★ The Janicepts - with Sammi	Trad 27m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Sat 7th Aug 2021
Man, that was great. Intimidating, glad to have finally done it. Filmed the POV, it's on YouTube. Onsight spolier.
	21	★★ Ethereal - with @1293, Gareth Llewellin	Trad 20m	Arapiles	★★ Very Good	Thu 18th May 2023
Classy Araps rock.
	20	★★ Dream of Purple Peach Popsicles	Trad 32m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Sat 5th Apr 2003
Really good. Traverse out R at the top to chains.
	20	★★★ Devils Dihedral	Trad 45m	Frog Buttress	★ Good	Thu 1st Jul 1999
	20	★★★ Piranha	Trad 45m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Sat 1st May 1999
	20	★★ Snake Charmer	Mixed trad 20m, 5	Serpent	★ Good	Sat 15th Mar 2003
	20	★★ Comic Crack	Trad 42m	Kaputar		2001
	20 20 X	★ Blue Veined Custard Shooter	Trad 18m	Kangaroo Point	★★ Very Good	Tue 22nd Oct 2002
I'm very happy with this! A very bold route on tricky, dodgy natural gear. Very good climbing though, would be very popular if bolted.
	21 20	★★★ Blimp	Mixed trad 25m, 1	Bundaleer Area	★★ Very Good	2002
	19 20	★★ Dry Reaching	Mixed trad 30m, 3	Point Perpendicular	★★ Very Good	Sat 19th Apr 2003
A full-value 19.
	20	★★ Nicabate	Trad 35m	Redcliffs	★★ Very Good	Mon 9th Jun 2003
Very interesting and daunting terrain with a cruel and unusual crux move (well done Phil!)
	20	★ Release The Hounds	Mixed trad 25m, 3	Mt Beerwah	★★ Very Good	Sun 1st Aug 1999
	20	★★★ Beat on the Brat	Trad 25m	Kaputar		2001
	20	★★★ Rickety Kate	Trad 15m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Thu 1st Jul 1999
	20	★★ Corner of Eden	Trad 35m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Sat 1st Mar 2003
Thin gear throughout
	20	★★ Quantum Undertakers	Mixed trad 15m, 2	Point Perpendicular	★ Good	Tue 22nd Apr 2003
A nice slabby wall in a great position
	19 20 R	★ Radioactive Cheerio (Direct) (Radioactive Cheerio D)	Mixed trad 18m, 3	Kangaroo Point	★★ Very Good	Tue 26th Nov 2002
I wanna go back to Arapiles!
	20	★ Ghostly Hand DS	Trad 20m	Mt Maroon	★ Good	Sun 11th May 2003
Looks pretty bad, but it's okay.
	20	★★ Sky Pilot	Trad 75m	Kaputar		2001
	20	★★★ The Wars of the Roses	Trad 72m	Wolgan Valley	★★ Very Good	Fri 1st Dec 2000
onisght 2) second 3) onsight 4) second
	20	★ Into the Fire	Trad 12m	Frog Buttress	★ Good	Sat 8th Mar 2003
Awkward fisting for me
	20	★★★ Cock Crack	Trad 38m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Sun 9th Mar 2003
Jamming down low, face climbing for the rest including an awesome arete finish. Ideally, take three #4 camalots and one #5 camalot.
	20	★★ Footloose and Falling Free	Trad 11m	Frog Buttress	★ Good	Sat 1st May 1999
	20	★★ Termination	Trad 18m	Frog Buttress	★ Good	Sat 5th Apr 2003
Little wires and aliens
	20	★★ Megalith	Mixed trad 50m, 8	Mt Stuart	★★ Very Good	Fri 1st Aug 1997
Redpointed the second pitch later after being benighted first time
	19 20	★★★ Odin	Trad 30m	Frog Buttress		Sun 1st Jul 2001
	20	★★ Egotistical Pineapple (Egotistical Pinapple)	Trad 14m	Frog Buttress	★★ Very Good	Thu 1st Jul 1999
	20	★★ Cadenza	Trad 20m	Arapiles		Sun 10th Nov 2002
Good with the double ropes - big traverse
	20	★ Torrential - with Duncan	Trad 25m	Blue Mountains	Average	Sat 9th Mar 2019
Trad. What you can do with a bung finger.
	20	★★ Atomic Tadpole - with Sammi	Trad 40m	Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre	★★ Very Good	Wed 3rd Apr 2019
Cool to do something on this end of the wall. A really cool easier tradventure. Getting off was unexpectedly involved (soloing down into the chimney behind to eventually reach a rap station).
	20	★★ Fat Chance - with Sammi	Mixed trad 15m, 3	Wilyabrup	★★★ Classic	Sat 18th May 2019
Done as a rather runout sport route. Great sequence!
	20 R	★★ Dazed and Confused - with @1293	Trad 20m	Arapiles	★ Good	Sun 14th May 2023
Remembering how to place wires. Start was committing.
	20 19	★★★ Thor	Trad 30m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Classic	Tue 1st Jun 1999
	19	★★ Togrul Khan	Trad 15m	Arapiles		Thu 14th Nov 2002
A steep chalky corner
	19	★★★ Infinity	Trad 40m	Frog Buttress	★★★ Classic	Tue 1st Dec 1998
accidently stood on a hex up the top, so... one aid!
	18 19	★★★ Wirilda	Mixed trad 70m, 1	Asses Ears Area	★★★ Mega Classic	2002
I led crux
	19	★★ Divergence	Mixed trad 20m, 1	Mt Tibrogargan	★★★ Classic	Sun 16th Feb 2003
Pushing three stars I reckon. Very classic. With the crux on RP's, it reminded me of Arapiles.
	19	★★ Sweet Dreams	Trad 88m	Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre	★ Good	2002
This is the weird groove thing. Mark led the bolted slab/groove.
	19	★★ The Price You Pay	Trad 20m	Bundaleer Area		2002
	19	★★★ Taipan	Trad 50m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Tue 30th Dec 2008
One of the best trad moderates in the Mtns. Linked all in 1.
	19	★★ Sceptre	Trad 95m	Urbenville		Tue 1st Aug 2000
	19	★★ Divergence	Mixed trad 20m, 1	Mt Tibrogargan	★★★ Classic	Sat 11th Feb 2006
11/2/06: 2nd Duncan. 16/2/03: Pushing three stars I reckon. Very classic. With the crux on RP's, it reminded me of Arapiles.
	19	★★ Sorcerer's Apprentice	Trad 30m	Frog Buttress	★ Good	Sun 1st Apr 2001
