Misread the pocket of love. Once I worked that out it was such a great pitch

Tough corner finger crack. Tried to jam through it. Turned out laybacking was much easier

Given 19 in the guidebook. 21 seems more accurate. Doesn't let up. Linked this onto of the previous 22 pitch | 210m, 99 | Mount Brown Main Face | Tue 27th Dec 2022 | ||||

Comfortably the single best pitch of crack climbing I've ever done. Slightly overhanging the whole way, with all sizes from fingers to fists. But the sections of marathon #2 and #3 were so epic! Hopefully I can come back and play on the top pitch too. | 53m | 黎明 Liming | ★★★ Mega Classic | Tue 24th Oct 2023 | |||

Ascents don't come much better than this. Really gave it some beans and scraped through to the half way rest where it backs off significantly to a beautiful splitter hand crack to the top. So fun!!

Linked p2&3 and 6&7. An awesome outing but the descent down the Spearhead gully was a serious adventure.

Would be a classic if the rock quality was better. Quite flakey. A 50m pitch with all sorts of sizes and techniques. It definitely beat me with two sits in the offwidth. Climbed in one pitch.

I had such a great time with this route. Spent 2 rest days cleaning and working out the logistics for this ascent. A deep water solo above a small pool, continuing into a spicy long steep tufa maze and finally the huge tree anchor at the finish ledge. The route was begging to be climbed but demanded lots of effort be put into making it happen. Thanks so much to Hannah for suffering through the belay process, it was probably as scary as the climb itself. What a memorable experience to FA this route!

Big wall mission, questionable style, littering, loitering, but still better ethics than the British.

Super fun lead. I took the wrong cam the first time so had another crack the second time and got it!

This route saw the worst fall of my life and a subsequent concussion last year. Great to tick it next go a year later. I was fairly scared.

Could not be more different to the first half of the route, delicate, powerful and flexible climbing on mostly imaginary footholds.

2 belayers, BIG swinging whips and bash-in carrots. Lots of fun. Unfortunately sat after the crux because the route was 60% moss and I was pumped and scared

One toprope lap to try the mantle and the top moves. Then pulled the crux easily first try on lead. Through the top corner, I had not worked out gear and had really tough time fiddling with RPs and microcams in the middle. On the last hard move, the hand foot layback match on the good crimp I slipped off from well above my 00 Dragonfly. It held and then so did the rope in the roof crack. Pulled back on after aiding back to where I fell and climbed to the top. Didn't have it in me mentally to give it another crack this trip. The route probably deserves 25.

Onsight attempt saw me one move away from hitting the good holds, gear is hard to place and moves are quite strenuous. Good climb

blew the onsite with a foot slip and taking bolt plates that didn't fit the bolts. Had to bail off a sling on the last bolt to collect another bolt plate and then climb to the top.

Either the world's biggest sandbag or something has changed since the first ascent. Wild moves placing fiddly gear from a horizontal knee bar. Then squeezing on terrible holds to levitate feet. A long way from 19. Probably 24
