Ascents by Vanessa Wills

Rpt, such a nice climb I did it twice. Huge snake in the pocket a metre left of the 4th bolt

Alzheimers os, to the anchors of Mr C. Easier than 24 but maybe better for the short

A shuffle of the bolts would make this feel a bit safer

Rpt. Snake around the horizontal break

Rpt, anchors wet, rest ok.

Rpt, surprisingly clean today and climbs nicely. I was surprised.

Rpt, couple of laps.

Rpt. Some ok movement

Two laps for good measure.

Reacquainting myself with the two finger pocket. Rest of it fine.

Sometimes it feels like ground hog day, but it was good to see Louise tackle this on lead

Rpt

A half baked attempt, it’s very friable, just do the original

Nice but suffered from being climbed on when wet a couple of days ago.

Nice moves, but would be a bit of a scary onsight

The bolts were out, drill dust everywhere, I was meant to be evaluating new bolt positions but it was too crozzly to be sure.

Rpt, end of day, Dave still sandbags everyone claiming it’s a 17…

Rpt, a little mossy on the upper part

Rpt no 50 or so

The crag warm up now with bolts

Was pressured into leading it….

Rpt. A little greasy today, but not enough rain to make it dirty

Rpt, to try out the new ring bolts. A consumer classic now!

Rpt. A bit dirty today but the holds are now all solid it seems

MF answer to a campus board. A little bit of rope assistance on the crux move, but quite happy with my crimping today

Rpt, pumpy and exposed for such a short route

One brief foot misstep, felt pretty good otherwise. The usual brown tree snake just below anchors. It didn’t move.

Nice route with interesting contortions on the flakes

A quick lap, in borrowed shoes. Pretty thin

The pinch pillar below the roof has partially disappeared but it doesn’t affect the grade

A different start that’s more crimpy, the crux is still on Bereska which is quite sandbagged at 19

The most comfortable I’ve felt on this

Now all on ring bolts

I’m still keen on a right hand start. Super bouldery funky moves I can barely do, and the start feels harder than 26

Options limited today given the swell and seepage

The climb briefly dried, then the tide started coming back in and it got drenched again

Two laps, distracted by trying to find emergency dentist

Was just warming up when my temporary crown dislodged. Toothache and climbing don’t mix

Rpt

Rpt, the nicest route I did all day.

Dirty discontinuous climbing, even the arete at the top didn’t salvage it

Better than it looked and feels quite long with the traversing. Interesting engineering at the start…

3 laps trying to show my belayer in slow motion how to be dynamic and use her feet, soloed to clean

Rpt, easy but would get a V grade ( probably said the same last time I did it)

Only advantage is it makes it easier to clean

This is a retrobolting of JFH surely. Ok.

A bit tired and sore skin and shoulder after 2 days at Nowra, but cleaning the house can only take up so much time. Fell off a few things due to not concentrating on sequence. Pretty cold and windy.
