攀登 in Mount Victoria Area as Onsight 或 Onsight solo 如同运动攀岩 by Kurt Doherty

Simply sensational. I enjoyed every second of this onsight; it's certainly become one of my favourite easy routes in the mountains. Movement was interesting, with the route following a nice wandering line of features up the wall. The final few meters round the small bulge and up to the ledge felt fantastic. Carrots are nicely spaced, helping to create a good sense of exposure while climbing, but it didn't ever feel dangerous to me (the first carrot is about 10m up, with seven in total, so the spacing is around 3.5m). The carrots themselves are a mix of broad-heads and "normal" ones; of the seven carrots, my bolt plates fit four, so I had to use wires on the other three. I found it very easy for 19, but the finish definitely has the ability to bring heartbreak to would-be ascensionists, so it deserves some respect.

Wanted to check this one out to see if it was another good warm up option; wasn't for me. Quite techy in places given you're on the arete at times. The crux was quite distinct and though I definitely butchered a few sequences, it felt hard for the grade.

I really enjoyed this one, despite the burly start. Rest of the route felt a few grades easier than 21, but has some great sequences. Moving around the final arete felt pretty cool.

Hands numbed out mid-crux but otherwise went okay. A little disappointed with how the simple the rest of the arete was to climb, was kind of hoping for something a little more engaging than simple jugging, but it's a cool position and a fun crux.

Definitely soft for the grade as it's a one-move wonder. The rest is enjoyable jugging with nicely spaced bolts. Could be 20 unless you're short?

Straight after Monkey Girl. Superb climbing. Tough little start to enjoyable overlaps/breaks then great movement through the scoop. Really great value for the grade. Get's a classic in my book.

Straight after Little Triggers. I almost dropped the crux, but just got through. Makes me feel like a beginner haha!

Fun, though the difficulties are over pretty quick.

Straight after Sound and Vision. So good! Loved the crux up top. Great climbing and another classic in my opinion, though perhaps not quite a consistent as Little Triggers. Matt and Dad top-roped it (I was too lazy to climb it again if they didn't get to the chains lol). Matt didn't quite pull the crux, but Dad got through it after a few goes. They're climbing so good!

More warming up straight after the others. Found this really enjoyable. Great climbing and my favourite of the three by far. Dad and Matt both flashed this too!

Not as good as some of the others, but a nice engaging crux. Think I went the hard way on the send, as it felt pretty stiff, but then worked out something better on the way down that felt more appropriate for the grade. Matt flashed on lead, Dad onsighted and Mum sent with only one fall on top-rope.

Really enjoyed the middle section through the slightly overhanging black rock. Good fun.

Gear on and TR setup for Sarah, but it was too cold and she didn't want to climb it. Luke cleaned it and we bailed for the sun at Shipley.

Super fun line and happy to read it well and bag the onsight.

Very cruxy and a little sandy. Felt more like a 20 to me

Soft for the grade, but pretty fun line. Heaps of metal on this one too, which broke up the climbing a bit, but would be great for someone pushing into the grade.

Warming up. Interesting crux for sure, but most of the climbing on this is long moves between good holds; don't really see why it gets two stars. Would be proper hard for shorties.

Interesting start, but over too soon. The rest is pretty nondescript jugging. Soft for the grade.

Not as good as Nappy Action. Much less consistent, but possibly cruxier, climbing.

Really enjoyable climbing and the most consistent one of the day. Dad and Matt both flashed on lead.

Thrutchy and sandbagged start for a 14 then juggy climbing that isn't as interesting as it's neighbour. I'd honestly batman past the undercut and claim a 14 from there.

I thought this was great. Quite interesting through the scoop and a little pumpy by the time you pull round the top. The carrot route to the left, Albatross, seems a little squeezed in though and could probably have been an alternate finish instead of an "independent" line.

Short, fun thuggery.
