Our tick list of the day:
Warmup at the Sinatra Wall:
- Count Basie V0** great warm up to get the blood flowing with lots of variations right of Nancy
- Nancy V5*** one of Sydney's best fives, easy compared to Mister Smiley or Anorexia but much scarier. Do not fall of the mantle !
- Come Fly with Me V4*** Left of Nancy with some nice pockets and great moves.
Asteroid Belt
- Pizzarete V8*** one of Sydney's best hard aretes, we will have to come back for this one.
- Fear Factor 1 V1** We did not try this one but oh boy I will come back for it.
Kennedy Wall and Beyond
- Dead on Arrival V5*** very tough and the top out is scary. Match on crimp and powerfully lunge to right hand edge then long reach up with balance finish. .
- Kill the Poor V6*** desparate with an excrutiating match on a crimp, followed by a powerful throw. This took Roman two sessions after he lost his fingertips. Is probably more like V7-8?
- Chemcial Warfare V4*** Excellent technical and funky climbing - a must do.
- Lime Spider V4*** shortish arete with some immaculate climbing requiring technical and balancey climbing. A little easier if you use everything and are not fussy about left or right side. .
The Real Kenny Boulder- beautiful free standing boulder right on the walking treck.
- Kenneth the Menneth V5**
- Lefth V6*** nice traveser with high crimp crux.
The Courtyard
- Blunt instrument V3** it was getting late and this balancy double handed pinch felt desparate. We will be back.
- Project Runaway V10** easy start with super dyno at the end. Doable?
There is so much more here and we will need a few moe visits to fully explore this crag. Can't wait for another visit. |
