Ascents in North West by Tim gayton having trad-cpr or ascent-date

Classic route. Avoid the old pitch one route which follows the crack, very polished and tough unappealing climbing. I didn't have my crack climbing brain turned on and climbed too one dimensional on pitches three and four. Jay faired much better and climbed well, and pieced together the route effectively. Don't get sucked into the crack, plenty of good holds just look around and adjust your position accordingly. 5 and 6 cam will make life more pleasant. Also, for the start of pitch three don't get drawn into the traverse which is the route called 'Skink', just follow the crack.

I throughly enjoyed this climb and found this to be a very rewarding climb. The route appears to be light on pro, but once you get your eye in, there are options. Plenty of pistol squats and trusting the feet. Standard trad rack will suffice but include some RP's and micro cams. The meandering line this route takes is excellent and this felt really good to get clean. A solid slab route on the wall.

Sensational climb, with so much variety including some route finding on pitch two. A glorious day out. Bring a fair amount of slings and runners, will prevent rope drag on pitch two. Pitch three is confronting but totally achievable. Identify what cams to place before committing to the chimney, should reduce a tad of the anxiety.

Couple of top rope tough guys. I forgot I had legs and went all arms, the other boys climbed well

Beautiful climb. Great pitches. Didn't realise you could continue after the traverse, will have to return. Bring your slings, 1st pitch starts left then into the crack before stepping right of the crack, lots of slings to avoid rope drag. Tricky section just before the belay, lots of bridging. 3rd pitch is a really nice traverse, definitely builds the cofidence for future traverses, uses plenty of slings.

Really enjoyed this climb, so off balancing sections in the crack but good hand holds high and lots of foot holds.

2nd pitch is probably the pick. Bring your micro cams. Some run out sections. 3rd pitch is very mossy, pretty unappealing. Avoid in the wet

Tough climb, was hard not to get sucked into the crack. I had lots of ugly body slides on the lead, should have bridged a lot more. Bring your slings, I used 12. The ledge for the belay and rappel is beautiful, really exposed. Made the climb all worth while

Very easy route, mostly a scramble. Potentially we picked a different route after pitch 2, only marginally higher than the grades for ordinary trees. Attempted to link into Aphrodite but not achievable without a down climb after the second pitch. Either way nice introductory climb to blow out the trad cobwebs.

Beautiful climb, one of my favourites in the arapilies. Don't take the pharohs decent route, horrible bush bashing

Nice climb, keep left towards the top

Nice climb

Excellent climb for the grade, unrea exposure. Few little tricky pieces, bring your double ropes for the long rewarding rappel

Some good exposure on the second pitch
