Description

This is the first house-sized boulder you see on your left. There is potential for several problems on the main face, however they have not yet been brushed. There is a classic V6 on the right face called Chronicle of a Death Foretold.

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.
