Sweet Dreams, December 2010

This 5 pitch, 117m route needs trad gear including cams, and some hangers for carrot bolts on the way and for most anchors. We were protected by Welsh Dragons gear on most of this route, as I couldn't find many bolts. It was the first time for me to use my own spring loaded device. They were very useful especially at the last pitch.

Bullet Hole Wall at Berowra

As the name says there are so many machin-gun bullet holes.
This is IGCM, grade 19, thou its hard if you don't know how to move. You need to bring brush to clean. Lot of fun.

This is Looks Poxable, grade 21, has one finger pocket, two finger pocket, and three finger pocket ! ! its till grade 21. so need to work on footwork properly. Then i can go up. need to bring a brush. No way if its wet as its slippery even if its dry.

I had one rest on my rope today, thou it was manageable
when I paid proper attention to my foot/toe. it still was sport grade 20.
Will clean it at the next visit. Monday 22nd November, 2010
