攀登 in Queensland by Brendan Heywood

Either a very big move to a thumb catch or gaston, or more static through the slopy side pull. Will be back

Feels doable but just can't place my left hand right or my feet.

Very cool move, held the wide pinch first go, and almost fell into the match but couldn't find me left foot. Had a few more goes but kept regressing

Inspiring - except for the rain which just bucketed down.

Another thrash but too hot.

Had a cursory play on this but wasn't inspired at all. Dodgy fall.

Alan got me scared before I started, but got to the 5th bolt on the wicked horns so super happy. Dogged the rest

Completely intimidated by this but quickly also got very psyched. Wild moves through the roof and proper knee bar tactics are gold. After the second burn a bee stung me on the right calf. Got it third try

Warmup flail

Another flail, calling it a day

As soon as I saw it, it had to be sent, it just looks fun. Thought I'd onsight it but it ended up a half hour siege before it got sent.

Very happy to repeat this gem.

Got up into the move and oozed onto my gut and it disolved into an grovel which involved my left knee. Very ugly, next time I just have to keep off the rock

There is a big jump in grade for this variant. Hard to judge as I didn’t really try hard without my pad but seems more like a 2-3 grade gap

Not really sure what I did. Started on pockets and worked right into the flake. Super committing with no pads. Tentative!

So close, had a few goes and half slapped the top. It definitely would have gone but I was on a time limit and it was baking hot sweaty business at 2pm in full sun

Would be a classic climb except for the crappy band of pebble rock with the sharp side pull. Otherwise big fun juggy strong moves. I loved the undercling throw near the end.

Stoked to onsight up to the last hold and fell throwing while juiced

Also fell on the start! Felt less easy the second time but did the top fine. Munted my right ankle a little and Ben and carol both did similar damage

Was getting tired, got to 4th bolt and pumped out, big fun fall

Waited for a while and warmed up on the woodie and then got this first try. Cold and windy

Watched carol attempt this and wanted to try the start problem, didn't get anywhere. Want to come back to this

Clean to the start of the crux and just spanked. Back was feeling rubbish after Coolum

Great burly bouldery route, loved it and we finished playing on this in the dark

Figured out the bouldery crux statically but otherwise flailed on this too

Need more biceps!

Sick staunch problem. Got the first couple of moves. Feels doable but just needs marginally more friction and less swing.

Really happy, this is a sweet problem. Felt impossibly last time but only took about 4 goes this time to unlock it.

Have done every move, just not the link up. I really like the cross through move which is probably the crux.

Solo no pad. Feels possibly soft but so jug tastic for granite

Took a few attempts to find the good bits. Got it fourth go. Up to the big jug but didn’t mantle but that seems to be the meat of the problem done anyway??

Thought this would put up more fight! This is easier than half the V2’s at gara, so maybe I have sand bagged gara a little...

Very cool bouldery crimp moves. Loved it!

Deceptive! All the crimps are really only decent as pinches, but but trying to figure it out.

Pretty sweet, very happy just to top rope it clean.

Really happy with this, even with the dog, had a rest one the big jug, then cleanly did the rest until I tried to mantle over the corner on leaves and sand and spat off. Found the better (but not great) mantle a couple feet left. Solid chunky fun moves.

Anchors we're down the slab a little so not a proper tick. The last slab move is hard, the rest of the route is probably 5 grades easier.

Fell at last bolt on first burn, second almost the same but slightly higher just got hands tangled, third go clean.

Annoyed a little I messed this up, after finding the right hold this felt easier than 23

Had a crack but very contrived.

Love it! This is such a sweet problem. Except for the caving thrutching bit. But I love it!

Another classic. Very stoked to find this problem

Geat little sequence

Too hot and bothered. It's one big move but a bit dirty. Needs some love with a brush.

Nice little hop to get your right foot up at the crux.

Classic! Loved it. My kinda climb. The rock here feels like a mix of Thailand jugs and the big smooth Arapiles 'bums'. Just one pumped out rest on the second last bolt.

Got through the awkward roofs moves and pumped out at the mantle.

Was inspired by this from the ground, but found it just sharp and painful. Was pretty glad to land the juicy jug on the nicer band of rock and top and get of the damn thing.

Having tasted the sharp rock I taped up, pumped through the cool flake moves and had a good shake on the mid ledge, then powered up the jugs. Very happy with the onsight! Has to redo it cause no one else wanted to second it

Great to back to this finally

Second clip looked high but it's easy

Onsight foiled by an exploding hold but would have had this. Fun little roof moves

Sustained layback, powered through it fast without breathing much. Got a weird sharp pinch pain in my right palm, possible from gloves too tight

Fun! The hardest moves are the bouldery sequence getting off the ground. I'm counting as an onsight, but I got half way up before scotty informed me I didn't have any draws. Doh! In hindsight I should have got him to throw some up.
