Grade Route Gear style Quality
Sun 7th Jan 2024 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd Dalpura Head The Lost Pillar
23 Lost Crack - with Josephine Roper Trad 110m
We climbed the first two pitches and then bailed, climbing up through the cave system within to end up on the other side where our other party threw a rope down for us to escape on.

Not sure if the whole side of the thing has slipped, but the route certainly doesn't match the description well re sizes of crack on the first pitch. If you're going to attempt this route (don't) then be sure to bring a #6 or at least a #5 for the off width section with otherwise 5m of run out above a nasty fall.

But yeah, don't climb this line. I almost died. So much choss and loose blocks. And then a piece of the cliff the size of 4 car tyres fell out above me as I was pulling.
