- Kachoong (21), Arapiles is one of the most photographed routes in Australia. I’m so happy that I can capture Sam @lanfourr and Winnie @wenling1205 climbing it. It wasn’t easy to get to the film spot but totally worth the traverse and everything. Roof climbing on the sandstone just looks amazing.

That's the best video if Kachoong that I've ever seen. I loved the silence other than the wind and the gear. I also like how you captured the whole climb, not just the roof, but the stunning wall below as well. It brings back memories (and a bit of a palm sweat).
Amazing footage indeed!
Iconic, I broke my leg on it, I fell pulling through the lip, hitting the head wall
This brings back such fond memories! Thank you so much for posting this video!
When did they add the bolt off the belay? I don't recall it being there in 2004 when I did it. I could be wrong though; it's been a minute.
I seem to remember my first bit of gear was where he put his first cam; efing scary!
Side story: When I was bringing my partner up off the belay on the lower wall, there happen to be another climber next to us on "Silence is golden" (24/11d). His belayer happened to have the same name as me. (Comparatively, there aren't many Cameron's in the world) This guy was screaming "CAMERON, TAKE, TAKE, TAKE" So there I was, literally pulling my partner off the wall. Poor guy, I felt so bad, he could barely take the gear out, let alone climb efficiently.
Man you where amazing
What a video!! Amazing combination of totally pro-style climbing, great shots with well-used zooming, and musical/sound effects for a more engaging watching experience. More of these on CZcams, please...
Back in my day (70's-80's) nobody clipped the third peg as a fall would mean no way to lower off :-) Looks like there's new rings and all.
Nothing short of epic!
Beautiful video of an amazing climb!
What? No Kachoong? You obviously don't know how to climb this route. Thanks for posting this video; when I was a kid, Kachoong was was one of the hardest routes at Araps; the dream climb I could never hope to do. Now a veteran (60) 5.11a seems so simple; I'll have to tackle Kachoong next time I'm in Oz.
Beautiful
cool video dude 👍
Where’s Winnie?
學長請收下高大登山社學弟的膝蓋太神啦!
Bloody rippa
How do you unhook those things once your up the top?
The second climber takes them out
Very nice video - here's another one showing Stefan Glowacz soloing the same route:
