Actually climbs ok on good rock, a worthwhile addition
|
||||||||
5c 6a | ★★ Proctolin | 15m | Finale Ligure | ★ Good | Tue 27th May 2014 | |||
Not 3 star, sharp and silly anchor placement. I also see it has gone up in the new guide to 6a, and hopefully many of the other routes migrate as well
|

Interesting large pebbles to pull on
|
||||||||
17 18 | ★ Rusty Pins | 15m, 6 | Hospital Flat | ★ Good | Sun 10th Jan 2010 | |||
tricky in places
|
||||||||
17 18 | ★ Up the Creek (Up the River) | 30m, 9 | Wye Creek | ★ Good | Fri 28th Mar 2008 | |||
Good the first time round, but would get tedious after a while.
|
||||||||
17 18 | ★★ About Time | 30m, 13 | Wye Creek | ★ Good | Fri 7th Mar 2008 | |||
Novelty climbing. Weird swirling rock.
|
||||||||
17 18 | ★ Pinky and The Brain (RIght hand route on FHs) | 24m, 12 | Bulahdelah | ★ Good | Wed 10th Apr 2013 | |||
Extend draws or suffer rope drag from bolting that wanders even more than the climb.
|
||||||||
17 18 | ★★ Meritorious (Brennan and Barley) | 20m, 11 | Kaputar | ★★ Very Good | Fri 30th Mar 2018 | |||
Nice route, a great shame it has been bolted. Great gear for 90 % of the climb. Nice stemming.
|
||||||||
5c | ★★ Croccante | Valle del Sarca | ★ Good | Thu 15th May 2014 | ||||
About the only soft route I have encountered in arco

As good an easy route as you could find
|
||||||||
5c | ★ Piccola Chimera | 22m | Nago | ★ Good | Mon 12th May 2014 | |||
This sector has really stupid bolting with too many in first few metres scramble, in odd positions that create rope drag, then malpositioned to clip up high, and unprotected cruxes. And no one recesses ring bolts.
|
||||||||
