	15	★★ Jaunt	Trad 45m	★★★ Classic	Sat 2nd Aug 2003
Probably the best on the South Face. Quite an interesting & varied adventure with exciting traverse high on pitch 3!
	13 16	★★ Travail	Sport 20m, 11	★★★ Classic	Tue 13th Apr 2010
Awesome exposure and superb views. Easy climb, but more like a 16.
	16	★★ Mind Games	Sport 20m, 6	★ Good	Tue 13th Apr 2010
Nice views, easy slab, but definitely not 16! More like 18!
	16	★★ Strong Arms	Sport 14m, 8	★★ Very Good	Sat 17th Aug 2002
Nice! Too short. Nice jump for start jug, then pretty cruisy up smooth, clean rock. Good views.
	14	★ No 1 Crack	Trad 6m	Don't Bother	Sat 8th Feb 2003
Trad leading practise. Ultra short and pretty boring. Could have solo'd it no probs.

	16 17	★ Blossom	Sport 10m, 4	★ Good	Sat 2nd Nov 2002
Easy peasy. Nice holds. Good warm up.
	20	★★ One Blank Wall and 3 Bloody Rooves	Sport 12m, 5	★★ Very Good	Sat 12th Oct 2002
Stuffed up the onsight! Tricky crux lunging for crack off smooth wall. Top roof section is easy but pumpy!
	9 12	★ Iria	Trad 10m	Average	Sat 12th Apr 2003
Second time I've climbed it. Did it again for trad practice. This time I liked it!
	15 17	★ Space Trucken	Sport 10m, 4	Average	Mon 30th May 2005
Not great.
	8	★ Nursery	Trad 10m	Average	Fri 18th Apr 2003

	20	★★ Crawdad	Sport 12m, 5	Average	Sat 3rd Aug 2002
Pretty thin for a 19. Easy enough up and over bulge. Quite run-out!
	17 18	★ Fingers	Sport 12m, 5	★ Good	Fri 5th Apr 2002
Contrived. Did without natural gear except for a nut at start. Not bad.
	11	★ Gum Tree Wall	Sport 10m, 4	Don't Bother	Tue 13th Apr 2010
Easy as pie, but still undergraded. I would say 14/15.
	15 17	★ Piece of Piss Direct	Sport 9m, 4	Don't Bother	Sat 17th Aug 2002
A piece of pxxx! Pretty short, & more trouble getting the gear off than it's worth.
	20	★ Extra Terrestrial Turkey	Sport 7m	Average	Sat 17th Aug 2002
More of a boulder problem than a climb. The start is a thinker, but the top is garbage.
Illawarra and Shoalhaven Wollongong Mount Keira North Face
	21	★★★ Wallyard Arete	Sport 18m, 7	★★★ Classic	Sat 2nd Nov 2002

	14 17	Reefer Headed Woman	Sport 5m, 4	Crap	Sat 9th Nov 2002
A warm up. Nothing more, nothing less.
	22	★ Ants In Your Pants	Sport 7m, 7	Average	Sat 9th Nov 2002
Was first outdoor climb (25-12-99). After 3 year, I finally returned with Pooks and red-pointed it first attempt! Years of regret - the monkey is off my back!!
