	M1	★★★ Via Ferrata	Via ferrata 25m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sun 6th Sep 2015
Repeat. Stunning steep pumper on immaculate rust-coloured holds that seem to appear right when you need them. I was climbing so fast I almost pumped-out and fell off.
		★★★ Via Ferrata	Via ferrata 25m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Will Vidler	Fri 17th Nov 2017
Surely this is up there alongside other such classics as the Sweet Dreams Wire Traverse or the Bell Super Crag Descent Rungs as one of the best routes in the Bluies!!
		★★★ Via Ferrata	Via ferrata 25m	Blue Mountains	★★★ Mega Classic	Rob Medlicott	Sun 8th Apr 2018

	25	★★ Hermaphrodite Hamster	Unknown 20m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Nick Clow	Sat 9th Jan 2010
2nd go, good technical slab
	25	★★ Hermaphrodite Hamster	Unknown 20m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Jacqui Hume	Sat 18th Apr 2009
Thin moves, mostly good edges though some small. Goovey moves, delicate footwork required.
	25	★★ Hermaphrodite Hamster	Unknown 20m, 6	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Sat 27th Feb 2010
I thought it was samnivel at first!
	25	★★ Hermaphrodite Hamster	Unknown 20m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sun 28th Sep 2014
Exploratory lap. Thin as, bro... And bloody sharp at that. The "crystal crimp" crux hold is malevolent. The main crux involves a lot of moves on tiny edges, for a mere 5m of upward climbing. Totally doable in cooler temps and with skin on my fingers. Worthwhile, and a touch different for a Blueys slab and one to come back to for sure.
	25	★★ Hermaphrodite Hamster	Unknown 20m, 6	Blue Mountains	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Sun 8th Feb 2015
Did this 4 years ago, 2nd shot. Thought it was the 22, so it felt a bit hard on micro crimps
	25	★★ Hermaphrodite Hamster	Unknown 20m, 6	Blue Mountains		Jason	Sun 8th Nov 2015
Some good falls. Need to work the feet a bit more through the upper crux
	25	★★ Hermaphrodite Hamster	Unknown 20m, 6	Blue Mountains		Jason	Thu 24th Aug 2017
Some tiny holds and intricate footwork required. Wanders a bit.
	25	★★ Hermaphrodite Hamster - with Ben Sanford, Gilbert Flynn Coombes, Rowan	Unknown 20m, 6	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Will Vidler	Fri 3rd Sep 2021
Realllly quite hard but actually pretty awesome pure slabbing. Figured it all out and I think I could do it without too much effort, but oh boy is it insecure, and reachy. I also contrived myself quite hard to make sure I was having a full value slab experience. There is a spot or two (especially at the top) where the climbing becomes more escapable. Tried it twice on TR.
	16	★ Kirk	Unknown 19m	Blue Mountains	Average	Tony Williams	Mon 13th Jun 2005

First accent of crack right of Casablanca Slab and The Dalek arete. Slabby start to crack left of orange scoops thru roof to ring bolt belay on spacious ledge. Easier than it looks when you are in the bird cave.
