13 The Very Easy Route Sport 110m Very Good
Surely this will eventually become a local bumbly classic on par with Sweet Dreams? Genuinely easy low angle climbing with decent rock quality. First pitch is a bit grotty but after that I thought it was clean enough.

Highly recommended to use the descent gully with the fixed ropes. Walking around via the north walls and main wall is very overgrown right now and a tricky bushwalk.

21 James Bultitude Closed Project Trad 80m Good
Seconding James, 2nd pitch only. Desperate thrutchy crux. Good line, bolting is probably done but still needs a lot of cleaning in places to get more than a star. Will bring broom next time.

 
20 Modern Masculinity Top Pitch Sport 15m, 2 Very Good
Well done James. This is crazy exposed and weird. Needs to be cleaned more though.

20 Big Bird Sport 65m Very Good
Not quite classic, but unique and really cool. Most jamming I've ever done on a sport route. Led the 2nd pitch in a dry-mouthed hungover haze, but had to pull on the draw to get over the crux bulge, which may be harder than 20 and won't be getting any easier. Bring a brush for the last pitch as it is still cleaning up.

Closest non-sandstone to Sydney, get on it and get funky.
