---|---|---|---|---|---|
20 | ★★ Deep Freeze
Up to roof and over to loweroffs at top. This is all on bolts and worth getting on. Great climbing and the view!!! FA: R.Young.A.Prehn, 1980 | 18m, 11 | Blue Mountains | ||
18 | ★★ Uncle Amy
Nice exposed arete on the right edge of the high ledge. Excellent! Take care with one of the roof "jugs"; it sounds hollow and fragile. Pull past it. DRB on ledge at top. FA: G Short & J Smoothy, 2009 | 16m, 6 | Blue Mountains | ||
19 | ★★ Damn These Electric Sex Pants
The left hand route on the high ledge. 2 carrots and 4 FHs. Double ring anchor. FA: G Short, J Smoothy & G Bradbury, 2009 | 16m, 6 | Blue Mountains | ||
18 | ★★ Last Call for Fame and Glory
Starts on right side of high ledge, just left of the corner crack (Second Thoughts). Up wall past 1 carrot and a few FHs to DRB on ledge. This is a sport route if you are comfortable running it out at his grade - otherwise, place a couple of medium cams in the breaks. FA: M.Colyvan, J.Smoothy, R.Weigand & P.Colyvan, 1982 | 16m, 6 | Blue Mountains | ||
22 | ★★ Serious Leather
Start 4m right of PS, 2m L of DF. Wall, flake and small corner to roof. Over and onto wall above to loweroffs. FA: S Knight & R Weigand, 1982 | 18m | Blue Mountains | ||
11 | ★★ Second Thoughts
The nice square cut corner, above the fixed rope. A great beginner trad lead - take med-large cams. Best to belay/lower off anchor on Uncle Amy on the right - otherwise top out onto loose ledge and belay off single RB and tree way back. FA: J.Bishop, J.Aalders & S.Van der Sluys, 1974 | 25m | Blue Mountains | ||
19 | ★★ Popular Opinion
A bit of banter - "Colyvan was under intense pressure to do this route in defiance of Ralph's claim to the upper half...via his direct start. All kinds of serious threats were levelled by his 'friends', including being struck off The Regulars List for Life" -A.P Start on the right side of the high ledge. Step right off the ledge and climb the wall 2-3m R of Uncle Amy, to lower offs. FA: M.Colyvan, G.Hill & P.Colyvan, 1982 | 15m | Blue Mountains | ||
21 | ★ Nocturnal
Doesn't add much. Start on the right side of the high ledge. Step right off the ledge and climb 1-2m R of PO to the bulge, but then basically rejoin PO to surpass the bulge. Then step R and join PSD to the top. FA: Bundy | 15m | Blue Mountains | ||
20 | ★ Hurly Burly
The corner 4-5m R of IN. | 22m | Blue Mountains | ||
18 | ★★ Impotent Narcissus
A fine roof crack on good rock! Start 1m right of WE. FA: H.Luxford & C.Peisker, 1976 | 30m | Blue Mountains | ||
22 | ★ Weigands Effort
There is a graffiti mark to the LEFT of the climb. Ignore this! Short corner to roof 2m right of DF. FA: R.Weigand & G.Hill, 1982 | 30m | Blue Mountains | ||
24 | ★ Popularity Stakes
The leftmost route at ground level, at the bottom of the fixed rope. At the third ringbolt you can either go left and up to slot - at least grade 25 (medium cam required) or straight up on bolts and small flake, then finish left and up Nocturnal. It's possible to link into Serious Leather for a more sustained finish. The original 1988 version of this route actually finished way left and up Popular Opinion. FA: G.Bradbury & J.Smoothy, 1988 | 18m | Blue Mountains | ||
24 | ★★ Popularity Stakes Direct Finish
The logical finish. Instead of traversing left into top of Popular Opinion at the 3rd bolt, go straight up the easy ring bolted wall (shared with Nocturnal). | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
22 | Over Under Upside Down
Start 6m R of HB. Roof then slab. Trad, dirty. FA: G.Bradbury, 1983 | 30m | Blue Mountains | ||
★★ Macca's Effort
Mantle up on to ledge below flake in roof 2m R of IN start. Gain good incuts on flake, then go for the lip and mantle again ... Probably wander on up from there.. Still have to decide if it's trad or sport, established climb off gear in IN. Set: Macciza a.k.a. Macca | Blue Mountains |
