Ascents in Northern Tablelands

After 3 attempted “I’m Finished let’s move on’s” and slowly grinding down Skin on a day that potentially could’ve been awful, stoked to have dynoed through the wet rock, moss and pine needles to send this one, then to send it again for good measure

Not the best line at the cliff but another worthy line in its own right at the grade

Very close attempt, slight adjust in foot sequence for the second crux worked out well

some great moves

This is neat, deserves another star. Delicate start and the more moves you do the easier it gets so just keep shuffling! Feels pretty soft for a gara 23

One attempt, fell turning the lip. Managed to figure that out quite quick and it's not too bad but the offwidth at the top is some proper type 2 fun that took a bit of working. Should go in another attempt or 2

Footer blew on scrittle at the start, then got up the flake and traversed to the roof crack and rested. Half did the move through the lip. Pumped silly

little sus, requires some freshness

fuak stuck the little chip and felt real solid then popped da foot

yaaay

Physically felt good but the head wasn't in it, felt quite gripped. First sesh back so I guess it's to be expected hopefully few sessions the head will catch up.

SEND! No big deal in the end, just take my time and keep shaking out. Good stamina route for me

fuak me punted it so hard

Feels doable but didn't wanna sacrifice the skin, only get a few goes before it's cooked

was 17 when i sent it

old nemesis, shits hard

project shopping, sheeeet, hard

project shopping, feels doable, skin was a limiting factor today

project shopping, can get the height can't hold the sloper

cleanin up the doggies

The new gear beta is great walking or unclipping behind you, leaving just 2 reds at the first lip and two yellows at the second. Fell at crux again, the jams are fine I just need much more weetbix and more stamina.

Repeat for the paparazzi. Did something weird at the top and missed a hold and did a funky rockover to finish

The first third is horribly hollow and loose for gear but otherwise climbs well. Topped out on the ledge. Didn’t do the crack which needs a good clean. Not inspired to lead it

Holy shit I had to fucken try so god damn hard on the end of this thing so pumpy, felt like I was gonna vomit. So damn good.

Stoked Volo got this for the 3rd ascent. Almost day flashed it, but ripped off the sweet crux undercling and was gutted. But turned out its still quite doable without it, maybe slightly harder but same grade. Got it 3rd go.

Gara delivers another classic hiding in plain sight. Felt impossible at first and slowly unlocked the micro beta. Had a bunch of 'ok one last go's, mincing up my right thumb and then stoked to send it when I was thrashed and thought I was going backwards

Great climb, took a couple sessions to get the sit start figured out then added in.

First outdoor bouldering, didn't have long before sun down, few quick climbs to break up a long drive
