Nowra Babylon Areas The Gaza Strip Dead Cat Wall
	17	★ Difference Of Opinion	Sport 10m	★ Good	Fri 24th Sep 2004
Really cool climb. Worth a star before Murray.
	18	★ Murray	Sport 10m	Average	Fri 24th Sep 2004
Damn hard finish for an 18, maybe something has come off.
Nowra Babylon Areas Babylon Western Cliffline
	20	★ Dintir	Sport 15m, 5	★ Good	Fri 24th Sep 2004
I actually found this one on par with Waramsin in terms of difficulty. Maybe it was just first climb of the day, and firt time in two months on rock.
	22	★ Waramsin	Sport 15m, 4	★★ Very Good	Fri 24th Sep 2004
This is a really good climb. Don't let the difficult looking start scare you off it.
Nowra Bomaderry Creek Scattered Crags Julian Rocks
	15	Possum (Felcher)	Sport 7m	Average	Fri 22nd Jul 2005
Not completely worthless.
	16	Poussy Poussa	Sport 7m	Crap	Fri 22nd Jul 2005
Absolutely no way this mank is a 16. I think 26 would be closer to the mark.

Another great climb. Really good moves, with one big reach, then the rest is just uncertainty pleasure.

Stiff 18 when it's 34 degrees.
	18	★ Backdraft	Sport 22m, 7	★ Good	Mon 21st Jun 2004
Just a bit hard to find the best holds near the end.
Nowra The Grotto Cliffline Gonads Wall
	21	★ Dr Pepper	Sport 14m	Average	Fri 16th Jul 2004

Sooooooo close to coming off this one!
	22	★★ Violent Flemm	Sport 22m	★★ Very Good	Fri 16th Jul 2004
Pretty cool climb. Look right for crimpers when it starts to get a bit thin.
	21	★★ Word on a Wing	Sport 22m	★★★ Classic	Fri 16th Jul 2004
Just one move in it really, and it's not that technical anyway
	18	★★ Depleted Gonad Circumference	Sport 20m, 9	★★ Very Good	Thu 18th Dec 2003
2 pitches. Chains to finish are not at the top of the wall.
Nowra The Grotto Cliffline Iceman Wall
	19	★★★ Worm On A Razor	Sport 30m	★★ Very Good	Mon 21st Jun 2004
Take at least 14 draws if you intend to clip every bolt.

Was a bit harder than 15, just because we were doing it in light rain.

Very, very intense lead

Nowra The Grotto Cliffline Donutland Rightside
	17	★★ Annually Fixated	Sport 33m, 9	★ Good	Mon 26th Apr 2004
Pretty impressive climb, worth the half hour it will take. If you think you can see the loweroff bolts from the ground, think again!
Nowra The Grotto Cliffline Donutland Leftside
	13	★★ Blade Flake	Sport 22m, 6	★ Good	Fri 28th Nov 2003
Easy
	19	★ Apple Related Tragedy	Sport 22m, 6	★★ Very Good	Fri 28th Nov 2003

Nowra The Grotto Cliffline The Colosseum
	22	★★ Wonderfully Wicked Women	Sport 23m, 7	★★ Very Good	Fri 22nd Jul 2005
NOt my style, but can appreciate the crack line.
	22	★ Barbie's Bitchin'	Sport 9m, 3	★★ Very Good	Fri 22nd Jul 2005
Just one thin and balancy section. Fair grade.
	22	★ Slimey Ken's Knob	Sport 9m, 3	★★ Very Good	Fri 22nd Jul 2005
More like a diffucult 21 when compared to the surrounding 22's, but would be fair anywhere else.
Nowra The Grotto Cliffline Powerlines Area
	19	★ Pick The Nose	Sport 12m	★★ Very Good	Thu 27th Nov 2003
	20	★ X-Ray Ted	Sport 26m, 6	★★ Very Good	Fri 22nd Jul 2005
Pretty run, but a good climb.
Nowra Thompson's Point Lizard Block
	15	★ Gecko	Sport 16m, 4	★ Good	Wed 30th Jun 2004
Good warm-up climb.
	14	★ Lounge Lizard	Sport 15m, 5	★★ Very Good	Wed 30th Jun 2004
I found it quite enjoyable. Good for a warm-up again.
Nowra Thompson's Point Sloth Area
	20	★ Three Bloody Roofs	Sport 10m, 4	★★ Very Good	Wed 30th Jun 2004
Took me way out left from 2->3
	16	★ Couch Potato	Sport 20m, 8	★ Good	Wed 30th Jun 2004
Poor barstards tring a 16 for the first time might find that start a bit challenging.
	16	★★ Sloth	Sport 23m, 8	★★ Very Good	Sat 22nd May 2004
Always enough jug action when required.
	18	★★ Everything But The Wasp	Sport 25m	★★ Very Good	Sat 22nd May 2004
Good climb to finish the day up. Long (Nowra) but easy nice climbing.
	20	★★ Backtrack	Sport 18m	★★ Very Good	Wed 30th Jun 2004
A bit ahrder I thought than Sidetrack
	20	★★ Sidetrack	Sport 18m, 7	★★★ Classic	Wed 30th Jun 2004
Very clean nice climbing.
	19	★★ Itsablue	Sport 18m, 6	★★ Very Good	Wed 14th Jul 2004
Good warm up
	22	★★ The Other White Meat	Sport 12m	★ Good	Wed 14th Jul 2004
Pretty thin, but a good climb.
	20	★★ Rootasaurus Rex	Sport 20m	★★ Very Good	Wed 30th Jun 2004
Worth the walk around here. It's worth at least one star.
	21	★★ Diprotodon	Sport 22m	★★★ Classic	Wed 30th Jun 2004
Awesome Climb
Nowra Thompson's Point The Fossil Cave
	19	★★ Cromagnon	Sport 22m	★ Good	Sun 21st Aug 2005
Not too bad. Pulled through the start because I hate the stupid chimney and have done it once before, almost at the expense of my extremely sporty harness.
Nowra Thompson's Point Vine Wall
	19	★ McFrys	Sport 30m	★★ Very Good	Wed 14th Jul 2004
Really enjoyed it. Quite exposed, and no double rings to second your mate up or lower off, so take a big sling to thread this huge rock at the top and then walk out.
Nowra Thompson's Point The Wastelands
	18	★ Dancing In The Garden	Sport 22m	★★ Very Good	Wed 14th Jul 2004
Looks like it has been extended. Worth the time. Well protected where required for beginners.
	19 18	★★ Lucy Can't Dance	Sport 22m, 8	★ Good	Wed 14th Jul 2004
A few tricky bits in it
	17	★ Moshpit	Sport 15m, 5	★ Good	Sat 31st Jul 2004
I think it has an 18 move in it. It's really balancy to get over the last bolt before the doubles. Other than that, a nice climb.
	23	★ Ryobicide	Sport 20m, 7	★ Good	Sat 31st Jul 2004
I'd like to give it a star just because it is my first 23 onsight, but it really isn't worth one. If you are out of stared 23's jump on it. It is really varied climbing, from a balancy layoff start to thin slopers on a slab and finally a bit of a haul over a roof.
Nowra Thompson's Point Betty Blue Area
	19	Girl Finger	Sport 10m	Average	Fri 25th Jun 2004
Bit too crimpy for me. Worth doing though.
	18	Exfoliator	Sport 10m	★ Good	Wed 22nd Jun 2005
Pretty average rock.
	23	★★★ Still Life	Sport 10m, 4	★★★ Classic	Wed 14th Jul 2004
I swear I have done some harder 22's. I'll take the tick happily though.
	17	Kicking Dogs Balls	Sport 8m, 3	Crap	Wed 14th Jul 2004
The worst climb I have ever done. Absolute slime ball with crappy moves and not worth the time of day. Do Still Life instead, it's probably easier and much more enjoyable.
	16	★ Petit Miam	Sport 8m, 4	Average	Wed 14th Jul 2004
Way to dirty due to the traffic it receives.
	18 20	★ Not As Steep As Some	Sport 8m	★ Good	Sun 21st Aug 2005
Good face. Not an easy 18.
	20 21	★★ Broken And Barbed	Sport 18m, 6	★★ Very Good	Sat 26th Jun 2004
Maybe it was the end of the day, but the start was quite technical. Good climbing though
	21	★ Real Buggers Don't Die	Sport 12m	Average	Wed 6th Jul 2005
Pretty tricky start sequence
Nowra Thompson's Point The Grease Cave
	18	★ Black Adder	Sport 15m, 7	★ Good	Fri 15th Jul 2005
	17	★★ Bullwinkle	Sport 15m	★★ Very Good	Fri 15th Jul 2005
	23	★★ Pulling On the Porcelain	Sport 12m	★★★ Mega Classic	Tue 8th Jun 2004
Seems easy once you have done it clean.
Nowra Thompson's Point Little Grease Cave
	21 21 R	★★★ Mosquito Slap	Sport 30m	★★★ Mega Classic	Sat 26th Jun 2004
Up there with the best I have done yet. Think about the logistics before you go, it's quite an adventure.
Nowra Thompson's Point The Pocketed Wall
	20	★ Traditional Evolution	Sport 25m	Average	Sat 7th Aug 2004
Bloody thin, stiff 20. Had one fall due to a rock snapping off.
	19	★★ Picture This	Sport 12m	★★★ Classic	Fri 29th Jul 2005
Very Blue Mountains. Great climb. Don't need the medium friend if you are confident on 19.
	20 21	★★ Je Baise Ma Frangine (Je Baise Ma Fraigne)	Sport 12m	★ Good	Sat 26th Jun 2004
Shame it is so polished, makes it a grade harder I think.
	22	★ Meaty Mesmo	Sport 10m	★★ Very Good	Sun 21st Aug 2005
Pretty easy 22 for Nowra.
	22	★★ Murdoch the Horse Fucker	Sport 12m, 5	★★★ Classic	Fri 25th Jun 2004
Very intense. Tricky start, then heavy finish. good though.
Nowra Thompson's Point The Very Nice Wall
	22	★★ Killer Boas	Sport 10m	★★★ Classic	Fri 25th Jun 2004
Very nice, short climbing
	24	★★ Pale Yellow Underwear	Sport 10m, 5	★★★ Mega Classic	Wed 5th Jul 2006
Finally.
Nowra Thompson's Point Gunbarrel Wall
	19	★★ Gun Barrel Highway	Sport 25m, 10	★★★ Classic	Fri 10th Jan 2003

	20	★★ Birdsville Track	Sport 23m, 9	★ Good	Thu 8th Jul 2004
	18	★★ Planet Mossvale	Sport 28m, 10	★ Good	Wed 5th Jul 2006
Good now it has rings.
Nowra Thompson's Point Vanderholics Wall
	18	★ Gina Hardface	Sport 15m, 6	★ Good	Mon 1st Jul 2002
	19	★★★ Vanderholics	Sport 25m, 8	★★ Very Good	Mon 1st Jul 2002
Nowra Thompson's Point Alley Wall
	17 18	★ Bombtrack	Sport 24m, 9	★★ Very Good	Sat 31st Jul 2004
Don't let the dirty looking start put you off, once you get on the second bit of rock, its a really well protected, fun climb.
	21 23	★ V Lix The Cat	Sport 15m	Average	Tue 21st Jun 2005
	21 22	★★ Tinman	Sport 20m	★★★ Classic	Sat 7th Aug 2004
A very cool climb.
	19	★★ Tour Of Duty	Sport 14m, 5	★★ Very Good	Sat 31st Jul 2004
Just one tricky bit.
	18	★ Slub Motion	Sport 10m, 5	★ Good	Mon 27th Oct 2003
Hard start
	16	Me	Sport 8m, 2	★ Good	Fri 29th Jul 2005
Much better than it looks.
