Access Issues:© inherited from Wonderland: Wonderland is in Conglomerate State Forest. Camping, dogs and bolting are all legal.
Approach:: Gentle 10-20 min
About 80m right of Canine Wall. After an alcove section of chossy cliff.
Ethic:© inherited from Wonderland: Bolting of routes is legal and there is quite a bit of potential for new lines. Most older routes top-out and adding bolt anchors at the top is deemed acceptable in the interest of preserving vegetation at the top of the cliff. Replacing bolts on routes is OK if required but adding bolts to existing routes is not. The sandstone often offers solid, natural protection which should be used instead of fixed protection where possible.
