Hiker's Route

A fun walk. Best to use it on the way down from coming up the Caves Route around back.

Caves Route

An all-time South East QLD hike. Not entirely sure about the 4, as one section in particular has an interesting sequence, but it's fantastic to get your head in the game for exposure. The tree into the chimney was down when we were there, so we both scrambled up the middle traverse, and rigged some trad to link a climb further on the left.

Shit Heap

My first exposure to jamming. Taped up and spent the first half dogging to get the technique down, but then warmed up to it and enjoyed the rest. Great lesson in the bomb-proof power of a good hand jam.

Electric Lead

My first trad climb, seconding clean. Loved the jams, chockstone, and the wasted energy trying to clean some salvage (a good practical joke in retrospect).

Coco Pops

Nice move coming out of the cave, into a safe run to get you used to distance between bolts, and a lovely second half of big jugs up the crack, lots of layback and pull potential. Lots of fun.
