The chimney left of the corner.

Start up the corner for 6 metres then step left into crack-line and follow this.

Take the corner all the way. Pull out left around the summit block.

Start on wall right of the corner. Up through the bulge to the weakness, then the left crack to the top.

Start as for Looking For a route to the steepening then take the right-leaning crack to the top.

Next major cliff south of Magic Mountain. Park at the saddle just south of Party wall. Walk south-east through saddle and continue horizontally (?) for 10 minutes to cairn then down descent gully.

Originally called 'Mirage' Wall but there was already one of those.

Major corner 10 metres right of descent gully. Previously named Fatmorgana. Maybe a typo somewhere.

Corner, at roof move right then up tiny arete then wall and crack.

This area looks stunning from the 'Victoria' Valley but it's a bit disappointing. Left of the steep gully that splits the crag is one of Gariwerd's loosest, most dangerous faces. This is unclimbed.

The left-facing prominent corner.

Quite good. Pitch lengths are guesses.

Start: Start below cracks on the left wall of the prominent corner of "Arrival"

1. 20m (21) Up the face a couple of metres left of the corner to a ledge.

2. 20m (19) Up a bit, then out right under roof to a really nice crack on arete.

Start: Start at a distinct off-width corner about 20 metres left of "Arrival"

1. 40m (19) Up corner, avoiding the use of off-width technique to tree.

2. 10m (19) Up crack behind tree.

Start: Start about 25-30 metres left of "He Reviewed..." at a good line with a bulging crack start.

1. 35m (16) Steeply up the line and on past the tree into the corner. After a superb hand-crack, avoid a dirty, closed corner by traversing left. Go up and belay on any of a series of ledges

2. 30m (-) Move back right and climb the wall, tending right, going just past the left side of an overhang to belay in a large cave. Take care with the rock on this pitch.

3. 10m (-) Walk ro the right-hand end of the cave and go up through more bulges.

There is a beautiful orange wall some distance to the left with a grey corner on its right side and an attractive set of thin cracks. All routes stop on the long, narrow ledge at 35 metres with a 40 metre abseil from a tree at the left end of the ledge, down A Word Too Much.

The grey corner marking the right-hand side of the wall. Beware of loose blocks.

The line up the face just left of the grey corner of "At Tienappels"

Great climbing. The right-hand line on the orange wall has a right-facing corner at 2/3 height.

1. 10m (18) Short, steep wall with difficult protection to terrace. Up 2 metres to ledge.

2. 25m (21) Up wall to base of corner then corner and crack to horizontal break. Now 4 metres wall (crux) to belay.

Awkward wall left of 'Mental Gymnastics' to terrace. Left-facing corner then the left-most of the major lines on the orange wall.

Wideish line marking left side of orange wall.

Up wall just left of wideish line.

Continue left past a cave with stinking goat carcassess to a steep gully. There is a route at the foot of the gully, on its right-hand side.

Sustained wall to base of left-facing corner. Up corner to loose ledge on right. Climb a thin crack to a wide crack and go up past a couple of blockages to abseil tree.

Start: Start on the right side of the gully left of the orange wall and stinking cave at the line left of a major, cruddy corner.

A large, broken cliff.

There are two obvious corner cracks leading from the ledge that is accessed from the gully, this is the left-hand one.

1. 20m (17). Start 5 metres from the left-hand end of the ledge. Tricky start (crux) to gain corner crack which is followed to exit left and belay on ledge.

2. 30m (17). Tricky move through roof above, up juggy face to short black corner then up to big grassy ledge. To descend scramble up and rightwards then step down to ledge and find fixed knotted rope in deep crack (2x60m ropes to ledge.)

There are two obvious corner cracks leading from the ledge, this is the right-hand one.

1. 20m (15). Up corner then step left onto juggy face, up to rooflet step right onto airy plate and continue up to ledge belay.

2. 30m (18). Trend left up juggy face towards the flake in the roof above. At roof beware loose blocks instead climb through roof a metre right from obvious flake then blast up juggy wall to ledge. Scramble right to ledge with knotted rope in deep crack (2x60m rope rap to ledge).

The stepped corner that trends slightly left will appeal to all tradsters. Don't let the moss put you off.

Start a few metres right of Flemish Vanilla, through the steep terrain to a broken ledge. Balancy moves gain the next horizontal, then continue up the seam above on positive edges. Step left onto a ledge after 25m and rap off here (alternatively complete "a long mountaineering pitch to the top. Bring your crampons" - Mentz/Tempest 2001).

Same start as for 'Somewhere' , but step L into a shallow corner under the overhang, then up until you are level with the burnt banksia.

Start where a large block almost touches the roofline. Continue up until level with the burnt banksia.

To descend, traverse L to the rap anchor above 'Foo Foo's Fourby'.

A pleasant ramble interrupted by one "big" move. Start: 7 m right of CCBA on top of block. Up R slanting weakness in middle of wall to gain roof, then up rounded arete. Easy ground to bollard anchors.

A steep crag in a remote setting but less than 100 metres from the car. There are one or two options for hard new routes.

The overhanging wall

A good climb up the best line on the cliff. It's an attractive corner that doesn't quite reach the ground and leads to a roof.

1. 30m (18) Up the steep wall below and left of the line until able to step right into base of the corner. Up the corner until just below the roof. Traverse left to the arete. Up through the left end of the roof, traverse 3 metres left to avoid dirty rock then up a little to a ledge.

2. 8m (-) Easily up right.

Nice but a bit loose. Start 2 metres right of Prague Spring.

Face to small, left facing corner and up this to roof. Move around right to easier upper wall.

Steep start and finish but not all that great.

Start at undercut corner 20 metres right of Prague Spring.

Up the corner until near the roof then traverse left to the arete. Overhanging groove above leads to steep, dinnerplating rock.

Start 5 metres right of On The Amazon. The shallow, loose-looking corner. Left under overhang and up to ledge. Left and up on easier broken ground.

Another isolated outcrop with only the one climb to date.

Nice climbing up obvious weakness in the middle of wall closest to road. Move left into first shallow corner at half height.
