Routes in Glasshouse Mountains

Traverse the entire length of Brumby Wall.

Matt's route on the right side of The Watcher boulder. Originally tried in 2015, returned 5 years later with pads and spotters.

The longer route on the west side of The Watcher boulder

The Northern face of The Watcher boulder

Up and right to jug, then to top. A bit easier than the original as a broken hold actually made it better

Up from the jugs and left to the top.

Up the prow on the north east side of the boulder.

A circular problem that traverses around the entire Bobcat Boulder. Originally started on the southern side of the boulder (the easiest starting point).

Hand traverse starting at the far right of Dozer wall and finishing at IKR. Good for a warm up

Delicate start to easier finish

Another tall, easy one. Sit start, don't use crack or block to the right for more value.

Up the nicest looking part of the wall.

Tall, easy, and sketchy. Just how I (used to) like it. Not much for moves but if any aspiring highballers want to try out their headspace, jump on. Pads not much help here.

Feels committing, but once you do it's a shoe in.

On the far left of Dozer wall, in a corner system. Start on the left wall and finish up the right wall.

Stand from grassy start. Mantle on crumbly holds. Sit start might be better

Left of centipede boulder.

Right of the bonsai boulder face

Stand from rail, trending left

From Lego Pillar scramble directly up low angle bushy rock to a ledge. The real climb starts here. Few slightly overhanging moves will take you to easier terrain. Scary semi-detached blocks abound on this route making gear placing a real gamble. This climb is currently top-rope only. Anchors on the summit are made from a collection of many small trees.

The easy access route at the back of the pillar.

Sketchy corner at the far south of the wall. Climbed as access to top.

Start at left of ledge. Scramble up in front of tree, then continue up top section of Mountie Hunter. Might be a good beginner lead.

First bolted climb at wall left. Up small face to ledge, then continue up to chains

Start 2m L of 'Red Dwarf'.

Climb past 3 FHs then R to the DBB shared with 'Red Dwarf'. Really nice moves in the first half.

Start 5m L of 'De Shrünkenklimb'.

Follow the 3 FHs then traverse L to the DBB shared with 'Bijou'. Consider stickclipping the 1st bolt.

Classy. Pity it's not longer. Leave the fourth bolt clipped when toproping, otherwise the lean of the climb makes it difficult.

Start 2m L of 'Nadir'.

Climb past 3 FHs to the DBB.

Start at the rightmost line of bolts on the east-facing wall about 15m L along the cliff from 'Like Icecream For Spiders'.

Follow the 3 FHs then traverse L to the 'De Shrünkenklimb' DBB.

Start just to the right of the corner in between Nadir and ‘Like Icecream for Spiders’. Up past first bolt to ledge, carefully past this to second bolt. It was easier to clip second bolt before half the ledge broke off. For full value, skip clipping anchors, stay inside the stemming corner and top out.

Stepped corner system. Several ways up this on toprope. A few loose blocks need to be dealt with before it'll be safe to bolt

Start in the corner about 20m L along the cliff from 'Elfin' & 'No Biggie'.

Climb the corner then traverse R onto the face and up past 4 FHs to the anchors.

The anchors consist of 2 solid FHs with new stainless hardware for lowering. However, 3 old rusty mallions are still in place. Whoever has the chance/tools/inclination please remove them.

Up the luge! A very cool climb up a great feature of the wall

Fun and thought-provoking

Climbs crumbly looking short face 5m left of Elfin.

Stick clip first bolt to protect tricky moves off the ground.

Straight forward but pleasant face climbing on small holds. Sustained and quite powerful for such a 'Queensland length' route.

Hard at the bottom, soft at the top. Best served late in the day. The top section is ledgy but well protected.

Start 2m L of 'No Biggie'.

Follow the line of 4 FHs to the anchors shared with 'No Biggie'.

Start at the rightmost line of bolts on the dark, north-facing, columnar wall you first come to when approaching 'Dwarfland'.

Stem up the shaft past 4 FHs to the anchors shared with 'Elfin'.

Corner system right of No biggie

Short but fun climbing up the west facing wall

Sit start on crimps on the bottom right hand side of the block. Work your way up and left on crimps.

Sit-start middle of the face and right of Flashlight Assist. Use spread crimps to get to an obvious side-pull. Big moves up and right to a victory jug and mantle. Will be a hard send but high quality problem!

Sit bunched on stacked crimps: good upper L crimp (R start hold of Into The Bush) and low R crimp. Huge move up and right to the best hold you can reach. This line doesn't veer left like Into The Bush.

Contrived test of dyno strength!

Sit-start with low L hand crimp rail and upper R hand crimp. Blast up and left to a jug and mantle straight into a bush.

Sit-start left of shield and straight up into the mantle.

flat hold to gain jug move feet up then stretch to finishing jug.

Keep off please.

Attach yourself to the under side of this horizontal pillar and make you way out and up!

Start on the overhanging pillar and cling your way to the top!
