Ascents in Arapiles by Rob Watson

Onsight placing draws, pretty fun climb and good warm up for the harder routes

Not a classic by any means but deserves a star for some cool moves

A slice of moonarie at arapiles? Bouldery start leads to runout slab climbing on good incut edges. A series of fairly commiting moves high above small and funky gear, relatively safe but the gear didn't exactly inspire confidence and definitely wouldn't have wanted to blow it!

Incredible, amazing rock, position and movement. Pretty much ticks all the boxes, just stressful enough to keep you engaged!!!

Great hidden gem

Felt fairly hard. Some great climbing though

Fun climbing, hidden gem for sure

Classic col Reece route. Great fun and an absolute pumper

Cooool

Great route, just enough gear where you need it

So nice, classic moves on great rock

Really enjoyable

Incredible! Absolutely stellar climbing on beautiful rock

Really good balancy slabbing, committing gaining the 2nd bolt

Incredible! Glorious slabbing, led the 2nd pitch. Super varied with a very commiting crux above small rps, fantastic!

Absolutely classic!

Really good, a touch spicy but probably not deserving of the R

Great fun, bolts are sticking out a bit

Thin and delicate, great line. Some tricky sequences above small gear.

A feisty little bulge indeed. 2nd pitch would be much better if it cleaned up a bit

Firsr climb of the trip and hardest trad lead

Drank a beer at the lip ha

Really engaging and cruxy off the deck, followed by really enjoyable slabbing to the top. Stellar route

A hoot

Really enjoyed this one, 2 great engaging pitches if you rap off from the chain level with pitch 2

Fun, the start is cool

Very enjoyable. Would be better if the holds didn't feel like they were going to blow off in your face

A grand old time, don't listen to the haters, this route is mega!

So bloody good. Climbed as one mega pitch for full value, epic position

Led 1st pitch

Great fun, would be 3 stars anywhere else

Unsung gem

Super enjoyable route, deserving of the hype!

Fantastic route, commiting face section for the grade!

Mega, led all pitches. Exposed and thought provoking climbing through radical terrain

Super desperate but grinning from ear to ear at the top

Really fun! I reckon it's worth 3 stars

So good! The masochist part of me really enjoyed this

Pleasant

Delightful

Jam school continues

Really enjoyed this one, fantastic climbing on the first pitch. 2nd pitch is meh but worth taking it all the way to the top for the committing summit overhang. Great

Fun!

A cute little number

Very fine 2 pitch outing

Pleasant indeed

Fun, a lot more pleasant than it looks

Good fun jamming, a bigger cam would've been nice for the top half

Delightful

Cool crux sequence
