Routes in Lost World

Nestled in a hole within the southern end of the Lost World boulder field is an overhanging boulder split by a finger crack. Begin at the beginning. The best way to explain it is to do it.

Climb the crack past two blocky ledges to just below the base of a small vee groove near the top. Hand traverse left and finish up a short crack.

Up Face It to traverse. plug in a couple of hand size cams in break and continue up weird shallow groove.

The lightly vegetated, thin flared crack 3m right of the vegetated corner of Quarryman. Climb the crack and the shallow corner above.

A #4 Camalot make the top out more palpable.

Thin crack finishing at one (rusty) bolt.

hand, fist, finger crack

Start: L of Savage Journey is a dirty corner chimney and L of this is a fine looking north facing crack.

The obvious arête right of Cruise Air and left of Lactos.

Many holds have broken, originally 29, possibly now in the region of grim 30/31.

Brilliant fun little chimney - stay near the entrance. First ok nut placement is 12m up, so top-roping is recommended

Contrived but cool climbing with an as-yet impossible topout.

not sure how this has been listed as 8 meters? unless you want to bring some tat and do a sketchy rap at halfway

Climb offwidth for 8 meters, step left up slabby boulder into hand crack, medium cams for anchor, scramble off down the gully to the right.

Stem and jamb the thin corner left of Back on the boarderline

Up wall past 2 bolts, into thin had crack

The offwidth/ squeeze chimney between BOB and NF. A no 5 big bro and a #9 cam help.

hand crack

Start: The front of the buttress to the R of the central gully

"Devoid of any natural gear"

15m right of the central gully, twin cracks with an overhang halfway up the cliff. Jam the cleaner righthand crack (though it is still often slippery).

Climb short crack on L, traverse R and then into main crack

Start: Wall with two horizontal breaks about 50m R of the central gully.

first placement is about 6 meters up. not for the feint of heart.

beware the semi-loose microwave-sized blocks high up in the crack.

Bolted arête right of Lost Wanderer. Sustained and powerful.

The cleaned, well-protected crack just right of Hurricane. Desperate, sustained and technical flared finger/hand jamming leads to sustained bridging and jamming to the top from about halfway. Crux at the first bulge around 8m. A good test-piece before tackling Albatross at Lowdina.

The bolted arête to the left of Dyazide and right of Great Southern Land, starting from the ledge at half height.

Short finger and laback crack below Endorphin. A couple of bouldery moves, small/medium wire protects the middle.

Ends on ledge, or link into Endorphin!

Possibly 24 if your tall with small fingers.

Absorbing climbing. An old aid line that was freed in fine style. The second crack left of Adolf. The thin crack up the striped wall. Climb the crack with increasing difficulty. Small cams required.

The original free version. Starts up the off-width on the left before stepping right into the finger crack. Finishes around on the left at the end in an easy corner.

The way to do it. Climb via both the Direct Start (25) past 2 bolts, and the Direct Finish (25) past another bolt. DRB.

Unique and weird. Do it for the entertainment value. Tackles the prominent diagonal left leaning flake at the right end of the cliff. Struggle up the off-width chimney 3m left of Paladin until you can traverse out left at the flake. Move up the flake to a roof, swing left around the arête and finish up an easy chimney.
