Routes

Reference	Title	Grade	Length	Pro	Quality	Alert	Operations
1	1Romeo Void, 22	22	8m		0
P1 22 8m The minimalist line of pocks to the left of the thin crack makes for a great boulder problem.
2	2Silent Freeway, 24	24	8m		0
P1 24 8m Trad A thin crack provides a difficult challenge.
3	3A Day in the Life of Jim Collins, 22	22	8m		1.02
P1 22 8m The first of many routes at the Bay referencing the fate of the pilot of Flight TE901 and his tragic entanglement with Mt Erebus. Presumably when legitimate rock star John Allen soloed the first ascent of this route there was little chance of him hitting the ground with the same impact. P2 Trad
4	4Wet Dreams, 19	19	8m		1.02
P1 19 8m Trad This finger crack is harder than it looks but still a considerably easier proposition than Silent Freeway. The gear is reasonable and provides a good trad lead at the grade.
5	5Blind Paratroopers, 16	16	8m	3	0
P1 16 8m 3 A balancey proposition, but one of the easiest bolted routes at the Bay. Presumably the title is a reference to the only folk who could fail to notice the chipped hold.
