Description

This is the tallish boulder that leans against the right side of the Eco-terrorist Block. The problems on this boulder range from easy to moderate in difficulty. There are two descent options, the front face of the boulder or the tree on the backside.

Access issues inherited from Handsome Crag

A locked gate has been put at the bottom of the old access road, but you can still use other access roads and some walking to reach the crag. The crag is on Crown Land and administered by Forestry Tasmania.
