Fumbled both the cruxes but scraped through regardless but at 26. Chris worked out how to climb it at 24.

 
27 One Final Clue Sport 26m
Onsight to the top boulder but cocked it up. Next shot with beta. Sick route.

 
25 Cluecifer Sport 42m, 24
Onsighted to top crux but had no idea where to go as there was no chalk. Onr fall. Criptic moves to os!

 
23 Cluecified Sport 85m, 14 Very Good
First pitch was fun and exposed butmore like 19 really. Second pitch headwall was really classic! Worth it for sure.

 
23 Cluedo Sport 30m, 13
Tricky!

 
Sun 17th Jan 2021 - Mount Wellington
The Organ Pipes The Columns
30 Freedom - with Rosie Sport 25m Very Good
5 sessions in total.

It took me a while to like this climb as it all comes down to a single boulder problem with a reinforced hold, however the moves are actually frikkin awesome and the position is stellar.

Possibly a little easier than Priapism.

Supernaut Face
27 Fairies Wear Boots - with Claudio Trefny Sport 45m, 20 Very Good
Really cool, the crux is like climbing on a 30deg woodie.

Long draws a must for drag.

 
24 Neon Knights - with Claudio Trefny Sport 45m Very Good
Nice route, varied climbing thats slightly tricky to read.

Did pitch 1 with CJ a few years ago. Very cool and very soft.

Pitch 5, second go, cool technical slopers. Conditions helped!

 
Wed 2nd Sep 2020 - Bare Rock
Supernaut Face
25 Into the Void - with Claudio Trefny Sport 45m Very Good
The start is rad and the corner is a cool feature. The top face is crusty and a bit meh though.

I went to the top of the cliff and needed around 21 draws (I ran out).

Highly recommend finishing at the midway Supernaut anchor.

Brilliant route. I fell on it theday before. Sent on warmup today. Turns out 40° rock makes it harder... Good temps today.

21 Way Of The Beanie - with Claudio Trefny Sport 15m, 6 Average
24 The Mullets' Edge - with Claudio Trefny Sport 18m Classic
Very very cool arete. Actually easier than it looks from the ground. The north delivers the arete goods yet again!

26 Bad to the Bone - with Claudio Trefny Sport 15m Very Good
Brilliant burly climbing, turbo sandbag at 25. 26 would be more realistic.

 
27 Redneck Heaven - with Claudio Trefny Sport 30m Average
Whilst it has some fun moves on interesting rock and pockets, this one really does fight for independence.

 
Sat 1st Aug 2020 - South Sister
Pole 62
25 Out of the Shadows - with Daniel Darshan Hazell Sport 25m Classic
Awesome climb, featuring burly jugs!

 
Sat 1st Aug 2020 - South Sister

These two are odd, a nice line and cool rock for sure but really only one route...

Dinosaur Buttress
23 Archaeopteryx Sport 20m, 7 Average
Ultra contrived. Just climb the crack on the left and exit via the last two bolts for a much better climb.

Fireball Pinnacle Area
28 Dark Art - with Claudio Trefny Sport 25m Mega Classic
I'm trying to think of a better arete climb in Tasmania, and struggling. Uniquely sustained.

Second redpoint. A bit soft, possibly 27/28

 
Thu 2nd Jul 2020 - Township Creek
Fireball Pinnacle Area
26 Fireball Sport 25m Mega Classic
Tried for the onsight, got pretty close.

Cool arete with really weird rock on the face, heaps of lil crimps!

30 29 Priapism - with Daniel Darshan Hazell Sport 10m, 6 Very Good
What an awesome route.

29/30, 7 days in total, had to cycle up the mount for this. I thought it was pretty difficult compared to other 8a aretes. Really tenuous balance of body position and power.

Nice one Gaz!

 
Tue 19th May 2020 - North West Bay River
Dog Leg Bend Main Cliff
27 Mark Your Territory Sport 15m Very Good
Sweet technical seam.

I climbed this years ago but its a little harder now some holds / feet have fallen off.

Awkward crux in the groove to an easy but exposed arete.

8a 8a/a+ Brot de Fonoll Sport 32m, 10 Classic
Outbreak of Fennel!!

Elegant arete with more holds than expected.

Took 4 redpoint shots. The second crux at the roof is a heartbreaker.

Some guides have this down as 8a+. It could be, I like aretes so can't accurately comment.

 
7c+ Minimal Techno Sport 35m, 14 Classic
Very polished.

Worked it all out but focussed on Brot de Fonoll

Hoz del Júcar Alfar
6c 6b+ Ese rayito era mío Sport 30m Average
Good, but terrible bolting. There is one line here and it's not bolted, with two 'no-line lines' being bolted to either side meaning the clips are off route.
