Routes in Grand Junction Wall

Start about 20m left of Krusty the Climb, and 20m R of Slay Ride, at a prominent red shale blob. Stick clip a staple above the vegetated undercut, traverse 8m to the right, then up to an anchor in the black rock about 5m from the top.

The longest stick clip at Shipley, and the batman is quite a rope shredder too. Start 20m L of Supercal, at a gap in the handrail where it bends to a post embedded in a boulder.

Another route that is unfairly overshadowed by its 'three star' neighbours. Up the log and first two bolts as for The Eviscerator then traverse 5m L to the lefthand line of bolts.

Excellent. Very thin and technical up the orange wall to a nip in the tail. Save it for a cool day. Straight up off the log.

A very popular route, and one that seems to be a good introduction to the grade - probably due to the plethora of bolts at the crux. Start as for GJ, stick clip recommended, then take the righthand line of bolts off this log.

Start 5m right of Supercal, up the log just to the right of the end of the railing. The crux will have you silently flying. Bye!

Needs medium cams (BD #0.5-2). There's no need to touch the sandy broken flake R of the 2nd last bolt. Keep climbing through the roof (past the fixed carabiner) to chain anchor. A 60m rope works.

Long, sustained - excellent. One of the longest routes at Shipley. Start as for SFB for a bolt then long traverse right, hard crux, then pump until oblivion with a left trend through the steepness to finish. USE A 60M+ ROPE minimum.

USE A 60M+ ROPE. One of the best routes on the whole wall - sustained but no definite crux (unlike many routes on this wall). Start about 15m R of AAO at the next log. This is the left line of the three.

Up the log (stick clip recommended, as with all the log starts), then straight up. Great moves with a powerful little slab to a tricky, annoying, probably undergraded finish.

USE A 60M+ ROPE (tie a knot). Good long route but often dirty from runoff. Start as for WAIA, stick clip recommended.

Start: Lefthand route off the 4th access tree. After the silly runout this is one of the best 23s at Shipley.

Right hand route off the log. Mostly cruisy grade 22ish climbing - then a final sting in the tail at the end. Use a 60m rope!
