Went to the city gym with Corch last night. Climbed:

  • Pillar green 17, lead
  • Pillar green 17, lead
  • Pillar pink 16, lead
  • Slab purple 21, top rope
  • Slab blue 18, lead
  • Slab hard green 23, bailed when my shoulder told me to
  • Far wall, blue 14, onsight lead
  • Pillar green 15, top rope
Pretty east night: 7 routes, average 16.9, total 118 (green 23 not included).

Today I'm feeling really fatigued. My rhomboids, lats, traps, abs and shins are sore and I can tell my quads are tired because stairs are really difficult. Might have to take a week or two off to let my body recover.

Headed to the city gym tonight for a few climbs. I don't remember the last time I went to a gym to go climbing and that was Nunawading. I wonder when I last climbed in the city. Anyway, had a fairly easy night:
  • Facing pillar green 16, lead, onsight
  • Pillar green 17, lead
  • Right of arête purple 16, lead
  • Under leaning arête yellow 16, lead
  • Over leaning arête orange 20, top rope
  • Pillar red 17, top rope
Interestingly, I didn't find the leading very stressful like I normally would.

What's news?

I suppose every now and then I should write about things other than climbing... Let's see, what else has been going on? Luke, Joe and I moved the last of Hannah's stuff in on Saturday so she's officially moved in now I guess. Then we had beer and home made pizza.

I went on a diet a few months ago... Lite'n'Easy is really F'n'Lazy. It's great. The food pretty good and it's not particularly expensive. I don't have to deal with my local supermarket being shit. I feel much healthier for eating more fruit and veg and I've lost a bunch of weight. Earlier in the year, when my shoulder was sore and I wasn't climbing much, I was hovering just under 90kg (25.5 BMI and ~13% body fat). I've dropped back to about 76kg (21.7 BMI and ~6% body fat) which is good except the 3 pairs of pants I bought this year don't fit now.

Work is work. The account I've been working on for the last 18 months has almost wrapped up so I'll be moving offices shortly. It's frustrating that it's taken this long. Looks like I'll still be on the account for a while longer too, just in a different position and no longer on site. We'll see how it goes.

My brother moved up to the Queensland border again. He's just got a job in Brisbane so he'll head there for a bit. Hannah and I will be heading up that way for Christmas which will be nice.

I think that's about it...

Arapiles

I made it back from a week at Arapiles. One of the highlights of the week was leading the third pitch of watchtower crack, one of the two grade 16 pitches in the 95m of climbing (the other is the final pitch, which Adam led). Watchtower crack is the line in this picture (only the upper two pitches are completely visible here, there's 2 pitches of climbing to get up into the cave):

Yes, stepping out and around that roof was very, very full on.

The list:

Muldoon (Adam), necrophiliac (Adam), mantis (Adam), fang (Adam), stalagmite (me), aardvark (Adam, yoyo), hornpiece (Adam), d major (Adam/me alt), pedro (Adam), megalomaniac (me), megalomaniac (Adam), electric warrior (TR), Agamemnon (Me/Adam, alt), kaiser/resignation (Adam/me, alt), Adam bailed off aristocrat, ivan (me), blockbuster (me), watchtower crack (me/Adam, alt), pitch one auto da fe (TR), Look sharp (TR fail), first pitch touch stone (Adam), touch type (Adam), kamikaze (me), xi (Adam/Cam), lamplighter (Adam/Corch), mari (Adam), electric warrior (Adam), bygone (Corch/Adam/me, missing link (Adam).

More later.

Absolutely smashed a few problems that I'd struggled with a lot previously too. Fell off a couple that I'd previously found relatively doable though too. Might've done better if I hadn't gone to Burnley with Sol yesterday.

Simpleton

  • Oct. 24th, 2009 at 3:30 PM
Snowman
Saturday Sol and I walked in to Mount Stapylton Amphitheatre. We decided to climb a route called Simpleton which is around 85m of climbing, grade 18 and takes a line near route 14 in this topo (we started lower on the cliff, headed up the shallow corner directly up from the first belay as per the guide description and did the direct finish up through the roof, marked with a 16 here):


From the base it looks a little more like this (last pitch is incredibly foreshortened):

I racked up at the base and headed up the initial wall to a series of wide ledges. After scrambling up the ledges the real climbing starts, working up through a stepped corner up into a small cave where I built a belay. Shortly after Sol joined me at the belay and the real fun started.

From the cave, the route goes up to the roof of the cave, then around the lip of the cave with difficulty and up to a shallow corner system. Watching Sol navigate up through the lip of the cave was pretty tense. It took some serious balls for him to pull through that move and the next couple of metres were no walk in the park either. Sol established a belay part way through the pitch, midway up the shallow corner about level with the little zig-zag in route 15 on the topo, and I started seconding up to join him there.

I found seconding the pitch Sol had just climbed incredibly (and irrationally) frightening. By the time I reached the belay I was a gibbering wreck. Sol just smiled, handed me the gear and said "Your lead stallion. You'll kick yourself if you don't". So we hung there for a while and had a chat about the next pitch. We sorted out the gear. We sorted out my plan for the next pitch: one more good piece just here at the belay (#0 c3), nothing for a few body lengths and not much worth holding on to really either but good feet and it's slabby so it should be ok, there should be a good cam in the vertical crack above that, then up through the little bulge (more gear), on to the ledge above that (bolt) and then home free to the belay.

With one leg shaking like Elvis I started up the pitch. With a little swearing and a lot of swearing I quickly made my way up through the section with no (worthwhile) gear to the vertical crack where I placed a #2 camalot. Then I put a second one in because I didn't want to take a huge whipper if I fell and it pulled. A few more moves and I was under the bulge, home to a huge 'thank god' hold. I shook my arms out and placed some more gear before pulling out around the bulge and sliding up to the ledge that usually marks the end of the second pitch. Usually I'd be pretty happy to see a bolt but as I clipped the rusty, skanky, mild steel bolt I felt no sense of safety or relief so placed some other gear before continuing on up the wall above to a stance below the roof (about where 14 and 16 split in the topo).

Sol joined me not long after and we did the sort and shuffle with the rack. Sol headed off and up to the roof and the hand traverse afterwards. Besides the large cams needed to protect it, it was a fairly unremarkable pitch. We sat in the sun for a while, sipped some water and eventually rappelled to the ground, quite pleased to completed the route.

Note to self:

Write up Spillway (33m, 18) and Navarre (40m, 17).

Went to Arapiles on the weekend with Sol. Summary:

Saturday:

Brolga, 113m, grade 16. Slab. Thin. Led the first (16) and third (12) pitches. Was very scared.

Omaha Beach, 80m, grade 18. Led the second (16) and third (10) pitches. Was more scared than on the previous climb. Managed to scare my belayer too by being 3 or 4 metres above a piece of gear that was 3 or 4 metres off the deck and not looking at all solid in where I was. To make it worse I traversed out a few metres under the roof before placing some gear. Fortunately, I didn't notice at the time how exposed I was.

Sunday:

Charybdis, 30m, grade 15. Very scared but determined not to put myself in the situation I was in on Saturday. With a lot of climbing up and climbing down, a fall, a bit more up and down I eventually reached the top of this.

I'm a Little Dinosaur, 25m, grade 18. Sol led this (somehow) and managed to look pretty calm for most of it. I was fairly scared seconding.

Necrophiliac, 25m, grade 16. Belayed Sol as he crapped his pants on this. Seconded without issue.

Corch and I didn't do heaps of climbing last night.

I Climbed:

  • West wall, green 13, lead
  • West wall, purple 15, lead
  • West wall, orange 19, lead, couple of rests and a fall?
  • South wall, orange 22, lead, one fall and one rest
  • Hydro wall, blue 16, lead
  • East wall, steep orange 16, top rope
Only 101 but I was happy to finally stick the last two moves on the 22 and call it a night.

Gilham's Crags

  • Oct. 5th, 2009 at 11:25 AM
Snowman

Late Saturday night I put the clock on my phone forward and set my alarm for 7:45. 2am and my phone set its clock forward an hour. So at 6:45 DST I was up and about. I could've used more than 6 hours sleep. Breakfast was Sol's crazy porridge. It's good shit. Then there was coffee. A little more coffee. After a third cup of coffee I packed up my tent and stuff, packed the car and headed around to the start of the walking to Gilham's Crags. Cam was supposed to be close behind us.

After a lot of waiting and fucking about Cam arrived with our packs and we walked 5 minutes through to the waterworks road (again) and then spent 15 minutes slogging up a hill in the full sun. It was quite warm by the time we got to the crag.

First up we headed into the shady gully where I led Two Slobs on a Slab (20m, 14). This was a fairly intimidating lead for me with a very committing move on slopers around the overhang down low though the gear there was pretty decent so I was fairly happy. Once standing above the overhang though, the only place for gear I could see was level with my knees. I placed a very small cam (I think a size 0 c3, 10.7-15.8 mm range) but couldn't get down to examine the placement so I wasn't sure how far to trust it.

I turns out I didn't really have much choice. With routes I'd climbed previously, if a route was slabby, it's wasn't very steep. This route was both quite steep and quite slabby, with a lot of fairly rounded sloped holds in places and not a huge amount in the way of good gear placements. In some places it felt more like a series of boulder problems stacked one on top of another. Fortunately, there were several better stances where I could stand, shake out, think, relax and plan before tackling the next section though none of them felt like the kind of place I could hang around for too long.

About 15m up, I placed a half decent cam but it was quite shallow and I wasn't in the mood to trust it. With something in place I took a little time to look around and all I found and placed was an awful nut. By this stage I breathing hard and struggling to clip the rope. I move up a few inches and found a far better nut placement. With a lovely lactic pump burning in my forearms I looked at the mini belay I'd just built and figured at least one of those 3 would hold if I fell. I looked up and the last 5m of climbing, down at the 15m of air below me, looked up and committed.

A body length or so further up I found a solid .75 cam and then I calmly ran it out for the last 3 or 4 metres, pulled on to the top of the block, lay on my back and enjoyed the sun for a while. Once the burning in my arms subsided and I was a little calmer, I built a belay and Corch seconded up to join me.

With my lead tank thoroughly drained for the day I ate some lunch, seconded Cam up Head Over Heels (16m, 22) and then top roped Golden Gherro Greper (18m, 18). A bit later I wandered way down to Retro wall and watched Sol lead Begenung (20m, 17) and then Corch and I seconded that. Corch thought about leading something else but decided not to.

We realised it was quite late by that stage and packed up and headed back to Melbourne via the B160 to Ballarat. Next time I'll go via Ararat I think as there's options for food other than Ballarat McDonald which sounded like the Mario Brothers piloting USS Enterprise through an asteroid field. Dropped Corch home and got to bed a bit after midnight.

[Note: For the drive up and back, Corch and I listened to "The Top 100 Hits of the 80s". Track 100 was playing as I pulled into my driveway after dropping Corch home. Here's the track list: Tracklist )]

Mountain Lion

Snowman
After dinner on Friday night Corch and I jump in the car and headed west, through Ballarat, a selection of wide points in the road and finally turning right at Dunkeld some time after 11. Got in to Strahans around midnight and set up camp. In bed around 1am.

6am Saturday: Up and about. Headed to Mountain Lion. Warmed up on Whiskers (22m, 6) when I meant to climb The Jaguar Express (25m, 6). What's the difference? Well Jaguar's description mentions good pro, Whiskers' description mentions it's poorly protected for the first half. Lesson learnt? Read guidebook better. Corch then headed up Vanya Was A Black Feral Cat In Drag (15m, 7) without any dramas.

With a little encouragement from Josh I decided to have a crack at Decapitating Tweety Birds (23m, 16). Given that my last attempt to onsight a 15 ended with me swinging in the breeze I was a little hesitant. I pulled on though and slowly moved up the wall. At one point I paused to query Josh on his claim of there being good pro and he pointed out that my left hand was next to an excellent nut placement. With some gear in I headed off left though a thnner section of climbing, placed some rubbish gear here and there and started moving up towards a huge flake. I was certainly happy when I got to the 'thank god jug' on the flake. After that it was a quick easy scramble to the top.

Next I seconded Masticating Mice (14m, 17). I was very impressed with Ben leading this as it has a quite difficult and pumpy finish up an overhanging corner crack.

Wandered down the cliff a little and Corch climbed Lions Premiums (15m, 14). I led Pangur Ban (15m, 14). Went for a wander and then seconded Jaws (40m, 18) while Corch seconded Sylvester (40m, 17). After that we headed back to the Vanya area. Watched Sol pop off a 20 (which Jeremy had nearly had a grounder on earlier in the day), packed up and headed back to camp.

After dinner we sat around the fire talking and smelting glass bottles into interesting shapes in the fire. Got to bed around midnight EST.

CBD gym climbing

  • Sep. 29th, 2009 at 9:21 AM
Snowman
Last night headed to the CBD with Andy, Al & Graham. Cam showed up too. Jeremy and Greg arrived a little later. I climbed:
  • Under arête yellow 16, lead
  • Pillar easy green 17, lead
  • Pillar pink 16, lead
  • Angled crack area red 18, lead
  • Between cracks blue 19, lead
  • Around the arête orange 20, toprope
  • Followed by the around the arête blue 18, toprope
  • Steep blue 20, top rope with many falls
Only 144 but I wasn't really pushing for endurance as I was climbing the day before. I was more interested in getting on lead and trying to bump my head space out a little more. The blue 19 fit the bill well for that as it's really quite scary in a few places with some thin moves to get to draws down low, an tenuous clip from a very awkward hold (a croissant, could possibly be avoided by clipping a different draw or by matching but matching makes you weak) and up high a couple of very long moves to good clipping holds a long way above your last draw, far enough above that you end up clipping the draws near your knees...

Headed out to the You Yangs yesterday. The weather was a little windy and overcast but otherwise pretty nice. We headed up to Royalty Walls.

  • Koo Woz Ere, grade 16, 12m, red point
  • Live and Let Di, grade 16, 14m, onsight
  • Dead Queen in the Middle of the Road, grade 15, 15m, seconded clean
  • Corner R of Jack of Hearts, grade 8, 8m, solo
  • Regicide, grade 20, 10m, toprope with a rest
  • Random undocumented route, grade ?, ?m, onsight

Nunawading

Snowman
Let's see what I recall about climbing last night. Courtney and I warmed up on the black 13 she'd struggled with last week. She didn't even hesitate and pulled around the overhang almost static which was good. Next the yellow 15, then I took 2 falls at the dyno on the blue 20 and then we did the red 16,

Corch arrived and climbed the red. Then we did the orange 16. I'm not sure what else. Then we had a go at the red roof. Corch made it up with half a dozen rests or so. I made it to the 6th draw before I popped off and had a bit of a swing in the air and lowered off.

I had a crack at the purple 20 at some point but couldn't quick the start and headed up the black 17 instead.

The highlight of my night was the 22 Ben convinced me to attempt to onsight on lead. My initial reaction was no fucking way but with some prodding from Ben, I tied in. The bottom half is probably grade 18 or 19 which was good because it let me get a good distance from the floor before I took my second fall for the evening. A little shake out and a think and I made it another couple of draws before falling two moves (and two clips, they must be big moves now I think about it) from the top. Another shake out and think, pulled up again and got my hand on the penultimate hold before my foot pooped, closely followed by my hand popping and me saying some bad word as I fell a few metres. I lowered off at that point, pretty happy with how far I'd got.

My hands are a bit fucked though, I need to do some skin farming (click to zoom):

I headed back to The Lactic Factory for a quick crack at week 4's problems. Given that I didn't feel 100% and the A problem felt out of reach when I first got on it I thought it'd be a pretty crap week. I warmed up a little more and then ticked the A problem second shot and almost ticked the B problem first shot, getting it on the second too (although it didn't look pretty). The C problem involved a very left shoulder intensive move so I gave that a miss for the week. Given that Vu couldn't do it I think I would've struggled.

I spent the remaining 2 hours working on problems that I'd struggled on previously. Found some new footwork for the white I'd been struggling with and can now send it fairly easily. The black and blue that I was barn-dooring off is fairly easy now. The blue with the awful start went second shot. The pink at the back is still just out of reach but I can stick two more moves on it. The light green in the same corner is also a lot closer than it was. Hooray for getting stronger and a little lighter.

Profile of Horn Piece. I'm not quite sure the source photos I used were true to vertical so I've corrected as best I recall

Headed to Arapiles again over the weekend. Pitched my new tent for the first time (outside the lounge room). Glad someone finally made a tent for tall people (2.4m long).

Saturday woke up at 5:30am because Sol left his alarm on. Out climbing by 8am in light rain. Led Horn Piece (33m, grade 13) without too many issues. A little annoyed at myself for getting so freaked last time I was on it but pulling up around the bulges up high is quite intimidating. Rapped off and the rain cleared. Next I led D Major (50m, grade 10) and had a pretty decent time. The second pitch is brilliant.

After lunch I didn't feel like leading anything else. Jeremy was thinking about Aardvark (18m, grade 18) and with a bit of encouragement decided to have a go. He had to rest a few times but made it to the top with a little persistence. I seconded it clean (surprising myself a little) but was absolutely pumped senseless when I went I pulled over the top. We put a top rope on Aardvark and everyone had a crack at it. Once everyone was quite tired, I scrambled up it again, pulled the anchor apart and rapped off again.

We headed to the pub for dinner and then returned to the pines and sat around the fire melting beer bottles and chatting.

Sunday people got moving a little slower than Saturday and we didn't make it down to Watchtower Faces until mid morning. People were already on the route I'd planned to climb, Panzer, so I racked up beneath Chameleon Connection (113m, grade 13). I did not find this an easy or enjoyable route to lead. By the time I made it to the end of the second pitch I was not feeling very happy with my leading and we decided to walk off early, leaving the upper 2 pitches for another day.

After a couple of peanut butter and honey sandwiches I figured I'd have a crack at the first pitch of Panzer (95m, grade 12). It felt like a doddle compared to CC and I wished we'd got there in time to lead Panzer in the morning as I thought if that'd been my first lead for the day I think I would've continued leading for the rest of the day quite happily.

We packed and headed back to the pines around 4pm, about an hour later than we'd arranged to meet Sol. Turns out he'd headed off for a little more climbing so Andy and I told him we'd meet him in town and headed to the milkbar for a pie and a milkshake, the climbing shop to pick up my resoled shoes and the pub for a beer.

Eventually Sol arrived and we headed to the Royal Hotel in Horsham for a parma. Drove back to Melbourne, dropped Andy home, dropped Sol home, got home, got in the shower, got a call from Sol that he'd left his phone in my car and was heading to Sydney at 6am in the morning... So, back in the car, drove to Sol's, dropped off the phone, back home and then finally in to bed around 1am...
