Grade Route Gear style Popularity
Upper Tier Upper Tier Bouldering
V3 The Humbleizer

Sit start on foot jug with RH layaway in front of big spike at left end of face. Up via hugging and more difficulty than seems reasonabl until able to climb around left to finish on foot ledge on east face.

Boulder 3m
V7 Still Lost and Lethal

Extends LAL left via more tenuous moves to gain arete, eventually finishing at the foot ledge on the east face.

Boulder 5m
V6 Lost and Lethal

Sharp sit start 1.5m left of BVL. Layaway edges up and left via small flat tops and continue left to good layaway just inside arête

Boulder
V5 BV Left Sit

Sit start with LH gaston (LaL start) and low RH layaway. Push up right to join BVL at very thin flake.

Boulder 3m
V3 Bon Voyage Left

Stand start on very thin lay always a metre or 2 left of BVR. Pretty sharp!

Boulder 4m
V2 Bon Voyage Right

Sit start as for the Golden Path. Up via large undercling to jug (or layaway jug up left if you feel inclined). V1 as a stand which makes one wonder why people are forever building cairns to get into the route!

Boulder 4m
V4 The Golden Path

Sit Start 3m left of PUM stand on excellent golden edges. Traverse up and right to gain the stand start (the large undercling above is out, about V2 with it in).

Boulder 4m
V8 Pumping Ugly Muscle Sit

Golden Path into PUM stand. Only V4 to the stand but sustained crimping tips it over the line.

Boulder 5m
V7 Pumping Ugly Muscle Stand

Start immediately below PUM bolt. Long hard move via thin undercling to poor edge (the large undercling further left is out). Finish at jug gaston/layaway beside bolt at 5m.

Boulder 5m
V6 Half Man Half Crack Sit Start

Sit start with big underclings and make powerful moves into line until the obvious large side pulls at 4m (or just swallow the medicine and keep cranking through insecure groove to top)

Boulder 4m
Middle Tier Middle Tier Bouldering
V7 Pet Cemetary

R to left traverse of whole face. Will be harder if shelf rest eliminated.

Boulder 30m
V7 The Squealing

Start on ground level sloped shelf that marks the end of TAFMT. Sustained slabbing left and up finishing once established in small incipient corner at far left end. V6/7

Boulder 10m
V6 The Animal Farm Memorial Traverse

Long ground level traverse of the squeal like a pig slab. Best done right to left starting at giant pocket. Hard moves for first 4m to blackened stump then miles of slabbng to gain obvious ground level hands free about 2/3 away across face (start of The Squealing)

Boulder 25m
V4 The Seventh Wave (aka The Dragon)

All class 4 star mega classic. The amazing scaled dyke winding up the wave shaped down hill side of the boulder below Squeal Like a Pig. Stand start at right end of dyke and traverse left following dyke to steep moves. At lip swallow hard and mantle (crux). Very easy 4m slab to salvation.

FA: Nick Hancock, 2000

Boulder 7m
V5/6 The Dragon Sit

Reach dependent sit start at right end of dyke. V4 if you stack to reach jug, V4/5 if you can reach the good edge mid height on the dyke, V6 from slimps at base of dyke.

Boulder 7m
Lower Tier
V4 Yet Another Boulder

The wall between Another Boulder and the right arete. Thin, but there's a Thank God hold at 3/4 height.

FA: Charlie Creese, 1989

Boulder
V2 Another boulder.

I first did this in 1989 - perhaps a first ascent. Start beside the rock that's embedded in the ground and head straight up the face. The landing is not ideal, but plenty of people have done this and enjoyed it.

FA: Charlie Creese, 1989

Boulder
20 Static Relief

FA: James Falla, 1986

Boulder 9m
V3 Flaketastic

Around back of the static relief boulder is an obvious line of big incut holds bordering the hollow plate. Sit start with RH low and climb to the obvious horizontal dyke. When you’re standing hands free jump off or easily up (but not so easily off!)
