Ascents as Tick, Lead, First free ascent, First ascent or Solo as sport by Vanessa Wills

Off the couch after Covid. The walk up the hill was almost enough…

Not worth the skin I spent on it at the reachy start

Not clean today because it was pretty mossy. Gave it a brush but needs more

Warm up through the fig

Rpt, slab dynos

Did everything but the short person crux. Was in good form when I last did this,

The crag warm up now with bolts

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

A quick couple of route before the rain hit

Well that was a surprise. Two goes today, first go finally worked out short persons way to do crux, then dave dislodged the key hold on his attempt. Still hadn’t got through the low bulge clean. Second go I dynoed the low bulge then somehow kept going and found myself through crux without a lot of recollection of the top, but I had identified two good resting stances so gunned for them. Shame it’s going to rain for the rest of our time in Tasmania, didn’t think I had a lead shot in me today.

First attempt, would probably need a few sessions on it to get clean, learning to milk rests and remember all the moves. The best way I could see to do the crux off a bridge doesn’t work for me, as can’t reach the next holds so need to refine a reliable sequence.

Jugged the first pitch after a late start ( done it previously). Second pitch took some figuring out, but it is all there. Third pitch I just couldn’t seem to initiate the crux stand up. Keen to clean up these pitches and do more up there. Stonking light and temperature today. The whole 3 pitches are great sustained climbing.

Two shots today, had to reacquaint myself first go. one fall at crux on second go, got back on without much rest and finished it. A super route. Definitely room for something hard to the left.

I’ve decided the moves are ok. I think the up grade from don’t bother to average is a Covid thing….

Rpt x2 . Bolt a steep juggy sports route and it gets instant popularity.

Progress, got to second last hold, fingers too sore to have too many shots.

Made some upward progress, just have to link it and hope pebbles stay put

After the FA repeated it I was allowed to up the grade

Actually some good moves, decided to down grade to 19, which is right if someone has put the anchor draw on.

Cleaned out the glue so now all the bolt plates fit, did the mantle at the top, decided there must be an easier way to do the crux but not much luck.

This has cleaned up ok. The anchor clip is a pain if short

Still hard past first bolt!

Managed the missing move, now have a to string it together

Not too dirty given its had no traffic for a year

Great friction today

Did all moves but one. Interesting moves, unfortunately crap rock. Something to aim for this lockdown

Rpt, sandstone slabbing seems easier after the granite

I climbed up to the third bolt. It was totally filthy above. I down climbed.

Rpt. Sprouted a ring bolt , and the weird 3 poorly placed anchors.

Rpt, not a good ground up option due to risk of hitting the ground

Nice moves, painful rock. Fell off at last move to rail second go after forgetting about a hold. Pumpy

Interesting boulder problem with a powerful heel hook. need to tick it before I shrink as already on tiptoes to reach arete
