Mixed trad 65m, 8 Fortescue Bay ★★★ Mega Classic Tue 13th Nov 2018
Well i dogged the whole thing but im still ticking this because it was awesome. Took some pretty big whips over the waves while the sun was setting and seals played below. What an amazing epic day!

22 ★★★ Black Light Trad 25m Frog Buttress ★★★ Classic Thu 20th Jun 2024
Onsighted the thin low section up to the start of the slab then was so gassed after that I was resting on almost every piece. Struggled holding the megajugs at the top. Loved it.

21 ★★★ The Kraken Trad 40m Blue Mountains ★★★ Classic Mon 7th Aug 2023
Surprised you don’t hear more about this route. Really good layback with some very marginal stances to place gear. Pumpy.

  
21 ★ Super Exciting Xylophone Trad 25m Barrenjoey ★ Good Thu 21st Apr 2016
Had to pull on the first draw, the rest isn't so hard.

19 ★★ Central Pillar of Mordor Mixed trad 20m, 3 Barrenjoey ★ Good Thu 21st Apr 2016
Pooped pants on this. It was slightly damp, enough to make everything feel insecure.

  
19 ★★★ Joe Blake Trad 60m Blue Mountains ★★★ Classic Mon 10th Jul 2023
Beautiful crack ranging from perfect hands, to tight hands, to fingers. Consistently 1s for a fair portion. Felt hard for 19.

Top pitch has a fairly hard undercut start to get established in the corner then east ground with barely any gear until the top out. Probably not 18 and probably only 15m. Next time I would rap from P1.

16 ★★ Man Overboard Trad 26m Point Perpendicular ★★★ Classic Mon 17th Apr 2017

Vastly underprepared gear wise. Used my only .75, 1, 2 in the first part of the crack and bailed after realising it’s the same size the whole way.

Classic for those who like this type of thing. Faffed a bit on the way in (read: slept through alarm) and started climbing by 10am. Some decent rock between loose bushwalks. Some seriously dubious chimneying on the last two pitches. Great day out, back at the car by 10pm.
