Paticipants: Duanne White, Dale, Tom Brennan

Skip boring narrative and jump straight to pictures...

Climbed at Mortein Wall and Thompson's Point on Saturday and Dale and I climbed at TP on Sunday while Duanne headed to Point Perpendicular in the morning.

Saturday:

  • Psycho Hose Beast (17): Challenging start to the day
  • Wobblebuns (18): Bit of a sandbag, which I dogged
  • Bitch Itch (20): Probably easier than Wobblebuns, so perhaps overgraded, nice climb
  • Kims (16): Challenging greasy start, harder than it looks
  • Killer Boas (22): I didn't bother with this as I was well and truly pumped
  • Diddy Kong (18): Very enjoyable

Sunday

  • Santa's Little Helper (15): Enjoyable as always and a nice start to the day
  • Mad Hatter (17): Great excursion, something different for Thompson's Point
  • Vanderholics (18): My first 18 lead, and a nice climb although there's a giant rest in the middle
  • Freak Magnet (22): Dale did this one
  • Gina Hardface (18): Harder than Vanderholics, some tricky moves up top
  • Birdsville Track (20): Dogged it a little, after falling in the first section by heading up instead of left. Crux is just after the ledge, and is hard to work out the moves from below.
