16 | Mistral(variation)
| 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
20 | Project 1
Start: Sparse older carrots on wall 3m right of DT. From the ground, it appears to require gear between 1st and second carrots, then ? FA: Unknown, 2000 FA: Unknown, 2000 | 15m | Blue Mountains | ||
20 | ★★ Mombassa - left arete of TS
(Is this the same route as TS DS?). | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
25 | ★★ Hermaphrodite Hamster
Old 80's project rebolted. Line of rings up the hard blank slab 2-3m right of Technical Stuff, to DRB. FA: K Allen & C Coghill, 2009 | 20m, 6 | Blue Mountains | ||
Trad | |||||
12 | ★★ Dragon's Tooth
Classic. The obvious wide corner crack. Rack recommendation: A single rack of cams with #4. You don't necessarily need a #5 or #6. At the start, bump the #4 cam as high as possible (deep in the crack) and then as your next pro, see if you can find a thread runner (a pocket that you can sling around). Either step R to the lower-offs of adjacent routes, or go to tree belay at the top then walk out to the road. FA: J.Bishop, J.Aalders & Mr(?)Wilson, 1974 | 30m | Blue Mountains | ||
17 | ★★ Technical Stuff
Start on the right side of the arete. Cams to carrots to DBB. Some of the carrot bolts are large diameter; brackets fit, but only just. An easier variant steps left after the second bolt to finish up the left, slabby side of the arete. FA: J.Smoothy & A.Penney, 1979 | 20m, 6 | Blue Mountains | ||
12 R | Mistral
Crack 3.5m right of S. Up onto blocks then corner to top. FA: J.Bishop & J.Aalders, 1974 | 30m | Blue Mountains | ||
22 | ★ Malignant Polymer
Start: 5m right of MMR. FA: G.Weigand & G.Clark, 1983 | 30m | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★★ Fohn
Direct start to Mistral. Start right of Mistral at crack leading to slab with single bolt below overhang. Climb thru overhang to join Mistral and step right at top to Panasonic Princess DRBB lower off. Rack recommendation: Single rack (#0.3 to #3, with double of #2) and a set of compulsory nuts. FA: W. Williams, A Halkyard & K Melville, 2009 | 20m, 1 | Blue Mountains | ||
Sport | |||||
26 | ★ Calamity Jane
4 metres left of Dragon's Tooth. Rings on left side of central wall of the square cut recess. FA: Ivan Valenta | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
22 | ★★ Samnivel
Great wall climb. Thin in places. All rings. Start: 3.5m right of TS. FA: J.Smoothy, S.Knight & R.Weigand, 1982 | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
21 | ★ Panasonic Princess
All Aussie iconic carrots in their full glory. A tad run out to keep you modest and humble in this mean world. Delicate balancey moves up the arete and then the final jug fest up head wall to loweroffs. FA: I Valenta & J Montgomery, 2002 | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
20 | ★★ Metabo Man
Start 1m L of MMR, up the slab then the nice leaning grey headwall 2m L of MMR. All carrots, but the first one is high and a tricky clip so either clip the first carrot of PP on the left or bring a cam. FA: J Allwood, 2000 | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
23 | ★★ Mal's Mega Route
Steep classic on good rock and rings all the way. High first bolt can be supplemented with small cam in a break, or a long stick clip from first ledge if you wish. Start: 4m right of M. FA: M. Gray & J. Smoothy, 1982 | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
25 | ★★ Roger's Smegma Chute
Start 5m R of MMR, one high FH in grey rock then the orange headwall on rings. A bit more sustained than MMR with an exciting overhanging dyno to finish. Beautiful rock. Add a grade if your reach is limited. Although latest guidebook states an attentive belayer is required, no amount of attention avoids the nasty crux fall. Instead fix a 120cm sling to next bolt and clip where the bolt should be. FA: Roger, 2008 | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
18 | ★ Ooops
Line of obvious fixed hangers between Dragon's Tooth and the Technical Stuff arete to loweroffs. FA: G Short P Mort, 2008 | 15m | Blue Mountains | ||
19 | ★★ Technical Stuff (direct start)
Instead of starting on the right side of the TS arete, start on the left side following two carrots. Finish up TS. (Is this the same route as Mombassa?). | 20m | Blue Mountains |
