Routes in Townsville

Mantle direct is slightly harder.

Starts 2m right of Nahaul, on and just left of arete. Standing start on bad slopers, and find a way to get your foot up onto the one good foothold

The direct sit-start of “Too Many Slopers”.

Sit-start going left to join the start of “Too Many Slopers”. Now contrived and superseded by Alister's beta “Too Many Slopers Direct” but cool enough to include here.

Starts 1.5m left of Nahaul, on small sidepulls. Up to the jug out right, and then up and left to mantle.

Up arête just right of corner to a solid mantle. Uses crack but not wall left of crack.

Start as for Nahaul and keep go left to finish above “Girl’s Time” on slopey holds.

Corner crack from a sit or stand.

Single move mantle problem. Sit-start on block, mantle overhang on slopers and good feet.

The arete from the right-hand side.

Arete from left-hand side.

Face just right of arete, without using the arete.

The cool hands free slab just to the right of “Disillusioned”.

Don't ever bother, but if say, everything else is being climbed: Very close to the ground. Undercut sit-start off obvious slopey hold in front of small tree. Watch your feet.

Sit-start on jugs moving left on slopers. Watch your back on the block!

Middle of face starting from opposing sidepulls.

“No Sleep to Brooklyn” but eliminating the right-hand sidepulls.

Start low on jugs. Move up and left to join "No Sleep to Brooklyn” at the top

Mantle the slight bulge starting from a sit-start on the little arête.

The arete just to the right. Nice easy warm up with some great footwork. Move to middle of slab and mantle.

Standing start move directly up the middle of the face to finish.

Possibly one of Madoc's old projects that has been forgotten over time. Sit start and move directly up to finish on "two Pointer".

Sit-start in the middle of undercut slab. Move right to the arete and up via hard last move. Easier in winter.

Sit or crouched start on arete off good edges, (final move of “Wondergirl”). Straight up. See also "Weight Gain Variant".

The standing start to "Weight Gain"

Sit-start following the obvious flake crack to finish.

Obvious sit-start under the hanging flake. Up and steeply traverse right along the lip, moving round the corner and then mantling off the final good holds about a meter before the tree.

Start as for “Monster of Rock”, only takes the low traverse option after the first few moves. Big sideways move off the huge flake to small edges, then to jug. From jug continue as for “Monster of Rock”.

Stand start near “ Monster of Rock” & “Pulled Muscle Tendon “ but go straight up.

Nice short face.

Short problem up crunchy face, starting off low set of holds.

Standing start, slap your way up the right-hand arete.

Sit-start, slap your way up the left-hand arete to easy finish.

Elimination problem: You may only use left arete as a starting hold for your left hand, right arete is completely out. Sit-start and move up through the middle of the face on flakes, reaching up and right to small sloper dish then pop to Jug to finish.

Same Sit-start as "Hope and Hindrance" but dyno directly to finish. Besides the initial starting hold, all other holds on the arete are out.

Fun lowball with great movements. Sit-start as far right as possible on crimps, then traverse left to final diagonal rail and mantle to finish.

Standing start next to the tree, move directly up on crimps and slopers to finish.

Standing start, establish yourself on the wall then traverse left and up to finish above “Anticlimax”

The best of the three. Low start under the obvious jugs.

Sit-start to “Blood” Left hand on small triangular crimp on face right hand on arete rail feature. Pull on and move directly up onto jugs to finish.

Arete right of corner from either side.

Face right of arete. Many variations.

Slab left of big blocks.

Traverse around to finish before the blocky gulley.

As “Wolf of the Cosmos” but do the full loop.

Sit start just R of the tree (cramped). Tough start on slopes.

Sit start off good flakes to arete.

A short arête with the chunky undercling.

An ok problem Right of Lunge.

Pocketed slab.

Starting at the left-hand end of the long vertical face, traverse right along the slopey top and finish at the flake at the right-hand end. Surprisingly tricky.

A variant of "Ice Cream Topping". Mantle half way for an easier problem.

Starting in the middle of the wall off the small left-hand sidepull and tiny right-hand crimp. Tricky feet and then launch for the slopey top. Fingery Fun.

Sit start on the short uphill arete (below the obvious hanging knob) with right-hand sidepull and lower of the two left-hand slopers. Fun.

Essentially Nasty Knob, without the right-hand sidepulls. Sit start below the horn, with the slopers at the base of the vague arête. Now go straight up via some small divots and slopers to gain the horn. Reachy last move.

Start sitting on the block below the short face and slab. Start 1.5m left of the tree, hanging off the left-hand arete and small crimp on the face. Up to hold on slab and finish moving up and left.

Mantle onto short slab using the one obvious good hold. Climb it at 5 O'clock and find out why.

Starts just right of the tree (tree no longer exists) and up on slopey holds with a crux slap for the juggy flake.

Straight up the dimpled face starting off sidepull and slopey pinches.

Up the obvious flake arête. Standing start off small blocks, step up to small underclings then follow the flake right. A good problem.

Start from ground off small holds (slopey crimps).

Left-hand variant of "Creaking Limbs", starting just to the left on better footholds, finishing via a great jug. Balancy goodness.

Middle of the blank looking face below the hanging flake. Starts crouched off the obvious low handrail, up to flake.

Sit start on the rocking boulder, then a single move dyno to the top.

Short, steep sit start below the obvious flake and up. Sharp.

Sit start at left-hand end of tiny bulge, moving Right and topping out at highest point.

Start way around to the right and traverse left to the start of "Unnamed Traverse #1", and top out left.

Reverse direction of Training Day.

Starts 1m left of "Bum Crack". Up from cluster of small edges to slopey pinch and a hard mantle.

A balancy crack and face climbing to a slope at the top with a pleasant top out. Classic. See Bum Crack Sit-start for a slightly harder problem.

Same as "Bum Crack" but with the obvious sit start.

Start as for "Bum Crack Sit Start", only go up and across diagonally left to finish up as for "Harry Houdini's Hand Holds", via a tough and thin traverse.

Start 2m right of "Bum Crack" with a high slopey left-hand pinch, and a bad lower right-hand hold. Paste your feet and up to some slopes and a tricky mantle. Stack mats or blocks to reach the left-hand start hold if you are too short - see "The right cheek high start".

Same as "The right cheek" but starting high with pads or blocks.

Crank through steep wall from slopes on lip. Starts off the flake embedded in the ground. Alternatively start as "Pull Hard Variant 1"[1993001625], "Pull Hard Variant 2"[1993001625], or "Pull Hard Variant 3"[1993001736].
