攀登 in Mt Alexander having 攀爬攻略

Tough but 6. Is so much harder than it looks!!!!

another FA sniped

be careful what holds you trust, rock is flakey

An injured finger meant I had to find different beta, opting for the undercling out left and bumping to the crimp below the lip.

Rock quality is garbage, climb at your own peril.

Demossed on toprope, then solo'd for FA. Worth doing.

One of the knobs fell off. Still goes.

The trick to sending is to accidentally slice your palm open before trying a line with slopers in it and then begging your friends not to take the FA so you can make a silly video about it online.

rag doll

sharp, had to stop trying because skin

Short but sweet!

So much more enjoyable than I ever expected a mantle on a heel hook to be. Also helped that the intro moves were an absolute delight, punchy with a bit of tension.

Pretty awesome boulder, super awkward to establish but once you get moving it feels much better.

FA was sniped lol

fun traverse. A lot of beta options but i like the gaston

Super tough first move compared to the rest of the boulder. 2nd ascent btw

What a stunning piece of rock! Rare to find this style of climbing at Alex. Rock quality was amazing

Love this thing

solid flow climbing

Very cool. Bring more than one pad and ideally a spotter

Great movement, a classic for Mt Alexander.

Can do all the moves, just come back stronger with fingers and thicker skin. Cool moves with interesting tensioning through the middle. Left drop knee to move up into solid crimp, and remember to grab the roof before moving out to the top out door knob finish

Complete with butt jam on exit 🙃

Mega start sequence into the opposing side pulls

Awesome climb!

Super cool line! Very featured, pity about the kneebar police though. Fell off the last left hand sloper a couple of times, will be back for it

2nd sesh - fell off the last sloper a couple more times before we found alt exit beta. Just one more sesh!!

One of the good starting feet broke, still likely goes at the same grade albeit a tad harder.

Fingers. Heel cam for security, before kinda sketchy topout

Ouchys, hurt my skin.

powwaaaa

Powerful start.

Made possible with secret starting foot beta from Gary who flashed it like a champ 💪

Thought the start was all the way low on both bottom crimps instead of using the left hand high pinch. That felt ridiculously hard! Might be a future low extension. Need to come back and use the proper start holds and also learn how to read.

Epic climb. First move was burly, but suits me well. Upper moves were tensiony but not difficult.

Fun crimpy slab, be careful of top as it's a sloping mantle and slightly tough to get to safety.

Shares same start as vertebrae so not taking the flash.

Very nice!

i think it was lemonade?

Just wanted to take a look and feel the holds. Movement looks 3 star but texture is pure sharp ass crystals. Not appealing to me.

Great movement, definitely rough on the skin…

Slightly terrifying without a spot, tree came in handy haha. Thanks for developing this area Peter, I'll have to try some of the harder stuff next time.

Flake in the scoop is a bit on the loose side, but fine if you're careful.

Pulled that chicken head off and decked. Bit sore. Had to bail. Looks like there's still an edge left where the chicken was but this might make it a grade harder and worthy of a good spot.

Climbs on nice features, though they don't look like chicken heads anymore.

yay back climbing in aus

Took a bit to work out the start.
