More pleasant tale than gripping yarn. Awesome friction slabbing at an amenable grade with lots of bolts ... for a slab.

Really fun first pitch with some interesting climbing up the crack. Pitch 2 was great slab climbing and while the holds were small the angle made it quite easy. The 3rd pitch had a couple of fun moves in it.

Anywhere else I'd call this "good," but a 3 pitch slab only an hour from Sydney? That's "a Classic." Lots of fun. Recommended.

Moaned my way up the first pitch placing as many pieces of trad gear as there were bolts. Now I'm totally Araps ready.

Good climb and well bolted, nice crack to start (shame so short), then nice long slab pitch with bolts placed well at small footholds. 3rd pitch looks pointless from below but actually has 2 or 3 nice moves and is worthwhile.

Great climb. Good belay stations on the way up. 2nd pitch was exciting because of all the moss. Really recommend this for a beginners multi pitch.

Great fun, still a little dirty but will clean up with more ascents. Ran pitch 1 and 2 together but wouldn't next time, too much drag and communication is hard but a 60m rope just makes it. Loved the unique bolting!
