1.1. Pygmy Terrace 14 routes in Crag
- Summary:
- Description:© (kieranl)
-
A series of compact orange walls with terraces in between. This is the right-hand side of the same escarpment as "Millenium Caves". This area is closer to the road than "Millenium" but it is nothing like as good.
Mobile phones get Telstra coverage from the top terrace, deteriorating as you get closer to ground level.
- Approach:© (kieranl)
-
Drive up Goat Track from Buandik and park at the Cave of Fishes car-park (as for "Millenium Caves"). The top terrace, with a red wall and cave, is visible above the tree tops to the right as you face the start of the "Millenium" track. The terraces rise from right-to-left so, from the start of the "Millenium Caves" track, aim to the right of the top terrace.
