P1. 22m 24. Blast up crack to belay at large horizontal break.
P2. 38m 18. Absorbing climbing up corner to top. Tree belay.

ethic
A fortress of blue mountains trad climbing. Some serious ground up first ascents have been done by local stone masters. At times the gear is minimal. If its too serious than pick something else. Keep in mind the purist approach of these areas before further development.
