Monique Forestier @moniqueforestier leading Black Gold (25) at Corroboree Walls, in the Blue Mountains. I rebolted this route on ring bolts (and beefed up the belay) a bit over a year ago because… well it’s great line and probably hadn’t

So yes had a memorable day at #oliana today. Managed to rouse the old donkey in to getting the job done (not my belayer, I mean me). Progressively throughout the day the donkey morphed into a mare, not the spritely filly that I’d hoped for, but a wise mare nonetheless. She’d taken on similar undertakings in the past, and so managed to send her project, T1 Full Equip (8c) ✅
Huge thanks to Mark Trompp for the 3 months of strength training it really paid off. Also thanks to @roblebreton for your guidance in climbing training.
Massive thanks to @abdgym for the looong belays.
