Fun climb, first pitch harder than the second. Double ropes handy on pitch 2, you need them anyway for the 50m abseil.

Absolutely stunning. Maybe one of my favourite routes ever. The fact that this doesn’t get more traffic is a crying shame. Should be #1 on everyone’s Grampians bucket list if you’re climbing low 20’s.

sustained line, awesome climbing!
if feel like more fun, try to climb 2nd pitch as the overhanging chimney - pro seems to be very good and moves don't seem too hard but exposure is mind-blowing! you are in an overhanging chimney!
