攀登 in Illawarra and Shoalhaven as Hang dog by Vanessa Wills

2 shots today. More grating on finger skin than I recall. Knee pads next time 3 knee bars. Middle crux match, r foot up, right hand side pull, left hand unchalked dimple then slipper, forget about chalked holds to left then up to above bolt. Top crux commitment!

Just missing the spanking move, couldn’t stick despite todays excellent friction. One previous go about a decade ago before the 2 extra bolts added probably left me scarred.

2 laps, getting up into undercling is my main problem, the rest is ok, but a few other spots you could fall. Will have to prioritise it this year

Failed again. I have to Dyno past the last bolt. Got the height, just slipped off. Love the rightward traverse in the middle

This area was a bit warmer. Still stumped by reachy move above second bolt. Only thing I didn’t try was foot cam at same level as hand jam, so maybe try that next time. Takes good cams to supplement bolts, #2,3 and 0.5 above last bolt

Did all sequences. Feels about 2 grades harder than FF.

I may be missing something, but getting to the ramp near the top is desperate. It may be reach.... tried 3 ways. The moves after that are ok, and pretty easy to that point. Finally linked a sequence, but it was tough. Try glove right hand next time.

2 attempts today as we were in area and crux draws were on. The lower crux move is nails for me. I stuck it once properly. Managed the next crux move to anchors the both shots.

Going straight up face is hard but worthwhile. Don't think 25 though, should have had it second shot except rain was misting in and I didn't rest long enough. Worth coming back for. Start no harder than the other 2 undercut starts I did today.

Fell off the last move twice. Super spoogy but I don't think I can blame that

Fell off after last bolt. My arms pan doesn't do the undercling reach. Found a sequence on tiny crimps that almost worked second go, but felt about 25. Not sure if I was enroute just below final roof as had to do a crazy traverse from left after clipping a bolt. No chalk anywhere.

Even cruxier for short! But really good

One to come back to with a better right shoulder for that final hard move. Clipped all bolts until fell off before anchors.

NIce, stretchy

NIce, stretchy

Sore knee, and strung out

Roped boulder problem. Not going to happen today with the shoulder spasm. I'm going home!

Went the wrong way 3/4 up and couldnt recover. Damn shoulder pain precluded a second attempt

Pretty hard at 21. Fell off last hard move at top of flake due to pump

10th route of the day, ran out of daylight. Not too bad at all.

Some nice moments, didnt trust the belayer with his 40 second feed to lead on this one.

Rather wet, and I was rather tired. Soething for next visit.

A bit wet and one super reachy move, the roof is the easy part!

Sequency through roof. Worked it out, just have to remember for next time.

End of day, out of light and strength. Got to second last bolt, crux was on slab for shorties.....

the crux was OK once solved, but had trouble with the lower long reach

Felt hard for grade, though I did all moves eventually!

It was too cold....

now this is a 3 star route! No skin left to crimp

finger trashing goodness

very dirty. Hold broke. I think it would be good.

Fell off at the roof 4 attempts in a row then did the move each time:(

one move is a little tricky

Painful

hard way out

lower crux OK, hard reach near top

seam OK. Hard reach near top

the start is ridiculous

Just that move in the middle

Just that move in the middle

Just that move in the middle

Just that move in the middle

I am such a moron. Clipped hard into 'anchor' and then realised there was a move to go!

nearly got lucky on my first and only shot! next time.
