23/24 Go North by Northwest

Take the direct line of 'Go North Young Thang' and avoid the left ledge above the slab by clipping the lower traverse bolt before heading up on the thin pockets and crimps. Looks like it will be a great line, but a bit contrived.

SportProject 7
21 Go North Young Thang

As for 'Texas', up 3 bolts to ledge, then traverse right 2 metres, clip RB then very cruxy move, up through roof and step right to anchors. All RBs. If you are in trouble at the crux a bolt plate on an old carrot and a spare draw will let you aid

22 Frogs Outa Water

Short wall with three bolts. Starts off ledge 1m L of PMMHH. Straight up wall past some dubious rock to the cave. Nice mantle to finish. Belay in back of cave. Rap off.

25 Pretzel Logic

4m L of TBL. The first of two fine, short cracks which finish in the alcove below the cave. Don't be put off by the seepage on the lower section of this and the next route. They are definitely worth the effort and not easy ticks

Another gem. The crack 3m L of PL. 1 bolt and two fixed hangers. Lower off anchors in the alcove above.

24 Monkey In The Soul

Through the overhang starting from the ledge above Pretzel Logic. Starts at the base of the overhanging nose of orange rock. Clip the first ring then through the overhang. The next two chain runners are attempts to remedy two problematic clips. After chains traverse R along the lip passing 3 more rings, a difficult mantel move and finish just below the manky roof at the rap station.

22 B Jam

Initialled BJ. Fully rebolted and do as one pitch. Starts 3m L of HIL. Up the little slab to horizontal then up over small roof to orange corner and up to next roof. Yeehaa.

20 Locked and Loaded

Start up the stepping stones through the slime left of the chossy feature step right avoiding the crux of the unknown 25 then traverse left along ledge back onto it. Extenders to reduce rope drag. Or down climb traverse after clipping to retrieve last draw to remove drag. Contrived but fun.

Sport 35m
24 Lethal Weapon

Start as for SOG but go right and do tricky mantle onto ledge, up and bouldery moves to last bolt. Anchors are to left - shared with SOAG. Difficult to clean route so get someone to second maybe.

25 Son of a Gun

Rock at bottom looks like crap but the higher you go the better it gets. Follow the rings up trending left then back right through a couple of good overhanging sections.

25 Ringtail

Starts off the same terrace as previous route. Goes up the lovely orange wall a few metres L of BSMBP. The crux is the headwall above. If you do not wish to run it out after the third bolt a #1 or #2 cam will add courage. Rap anchor. Rebolted in 2015. 12 rings. The original route was intended to follow the hex bolts but it was never done. The Rings take the line of least resistance. Can appear a little run out so take a few mid size cams to sooth the nerves. A lower pitch has been added with four rings (easy # 16)

20 Corrosion Castle

Megaclassic through steep juggy ground. Back to ground level, about 20m L of 666 The Beast 66, on the left wall of a small corner. Steep, airy and scary. Retrobolted 2020 (from 9 carrots to 19 Ubolts including the 2 sets of anchors). Can be done in one pitch with a sling extender or so.

  1. 10m (16) Up thin crack to Ubolt belay (3 bolts)

Abandoned project - now open

The route starts in the left side of the cave, just to the right of Finger Candy. Start in back left at very rusty fixed hanger, and pass four more rusty FHs to finish on rope wrapped around a rock pillar, with single carabiner. Danger - all bolts and the anchor need replacing. Appears abandoned, as confirmed by Paul. Close to grade 30. Up for the taking if you want to rebolt and try. You may need to be able to do a double foot free shoulder lock on a roof, on slopers.

The first route you come to, on the initial decent into Ten Pin Gully access. Cruisy warm up. While technically not part of The Sports wall, it is on the some cliff line. Start easily on the block half way down the ramp.
