Top Rope ascent by:
Fantstic route!
Great sustained 5.10a laybacking. Not difficult, just strenuous. Really fun. Would be a bold lead.

Fun and strenuous
I don't know if this is safely leadable. Maybe places to place a few nuts. Not bolted. A fun climb. Pretty strenuous but good jugs. Difficulty is mostly lower down.

Dirty and tricky
It was muddy when I did it as it was march. Could be led if you are bold and confident. Definitely a stiff 5.8 though.

It was wet
Can't really say to much as it was wet when I did it. Just top toped it. Really sketchy runout lead. The rock was wet so feet and hands were shite. Probably made it seem harder than it was. Would be a decent route dry.

tricky
Hellish start. The rest of the climb is fun and sustained. Good holds but lots of changing of body position to use feet. Pretty pumpy up to half way.

part
I only did part of this route. I started on Slanted Thoughts and moved across to Pulsar (I had a bunk shoulder but got bored of the crack part way up). It is fun. The holds are pretty thin. It is really abrasive though, so anything is a good foot hold. The move from the little ledge is a lot of fun.

Fun climb.
Some crimpy little bits. A lot of fun. A nice big wall. Really nice rock. Water-formed basalt.

Hard at the time.
This was my first roof I think. definitely pretty difficult for a 5.8. I would rate it more a 5.9 I think. It is a Victoria classic though. Difficult to get off the ground.
