Access issues inherited from Toohey Forest

'Toohey Forest' is owned by the Brisbane City Council. It's an important habitat for 400 plants and animals, and is very popular with walkers, joggers and picnicking families. Therefore the usual rules of taking out your rubbish, keeping noise to a minimum, cleaning any chalk marks and so on are particularly important here if climbing is to remain an acceptable activity in the eyes of the community.

Approach

Just downhill from the 'Rooflet Boulder' and 'Boulder IV'.

Easy start and then find holds to L to get over the bulge.

Start standing with hands on sloper and crimp, swing up a heel and mantle

FA: Dan G, 2012

Sit start under roof, with tricky side pull to mantle.

Start with hands in the break. A nice undercling and high feet will allow you to reach past the blank looking rock. Trend left via rail and use the good sidepull to mantle.

See that horizontal human bodywidth sized slot to the right of Smeegle that opens up into the cave? You know what to do. Squeeeeze! Inside to outside is easier.

FA: Philip Ly

Starts at the little cave on the undercling, then traverse out left till you run out of holds. Head straight up the slopey top-out.

FA: Alex Mougenot, Jul 2020

LH undercling and RH on small hold just below the lip to start. Move up via slopers, mantle over the bulge and top out straight up. The block to the right is out.
