Ascents in Northern Tablelands

Quite contorting

excellent 1st pitch followed by a hard crack pitch

great slab climbing, great second pitch

An awesome way of getting to the bottom of the gorge. The chains and bolts seem fine. Another group walked down at the same time and were about half an hour quicker than us rappelling but we had way more fun.

tree good pitches

excellent slab climbing, 2 great pitches

Perhaps unsurprisingly this is a pure crimp fest! The start of the climb is quite fun before the vertical section starts. Made a few links through the cruxy very static crimpy section directly above the horizontal break. The top half is a little smoother - not sure it would be after linking what lies beneath. And then there's the view! What an awesome route!

We had to leave before we led this. Climbs quite nicely

spanked me!! azz n i seiged it n had no love

Classic Follows a water streak up a huge slab loved it take 4 brackets&rack of freinds

Worth every bit of the epic farmers friends battle during the hike in. Start is a little run-out. 7 bolt plates, 0.75 and a size 3 Camalot was all we needed. Great climb with excellent views!

Had a bit of trouble finding the start (would've helped if I'd read the description properly) :-P From the two belayer/anchor carrots follow 3 carrots up the slabby scoop to the R (there is great potential further to the left for better slab). Cool moves through the overlap and L bring you to the base of the next slab which is thin and cruxy and gets the grade I guess. Two more carrots here up the slabby arete. The crack at the top is beautiful and eats up red (#1), yellow (#2) and Blue (#3) BD cams.

This route is freakin awesome! such good climbing and probably my favourite at the grade/style at Gara. Not sure why but upon rapping in and cleaning up a few holds (possibly hasn't been climbed in over 25 years?) we thought that this might be pretty straight forward. Not so. Was going okay until I blew the onsight by breaking off a hold. Had a few rests after that working some of the more committing moves. Had a second go on top rope and was stoked to get it clean. I'd love to get back on this and lead it clean from the ground up. Get on it, Gara classic!

first time abseiling to get to the start which was SO FUN!

After a beautiful walk in over rolling hills, two tree rappels, an adrenaline inspiring run-out, and a walk home in the dark, today was a certified epic!

FFA. Great slab moves, through a Rooflet, a slab Dyno and then a nice finger crack.

So good, a couple spicy moves still but its all there

Great slab climb. Slipped off a few times, could do with some brushing if you are rapping in and 2 #3 or #4s for the breaks.

fuak, I couldn't see one of the carrots and thought it was gonna be some 10m runout on tricky slab with no chalk anywhere so I bailed. Once on the ground again I could see the carrot from the side so I went up again and sent. Mega rock quality and very engaging.

another lap on trs for funs while Brendan bolted

Bush bash mission to find the top of this route, with lots of prickly spike plants profusely piercing my pants… but a fun land engaging line for sure. Reminds me of hazards climbing at freycinet. Pre-placed the draws on the rap because… why not?

Very cool, done in one pitch

This one has been on the list for ages and I should have done it years ago, its one of the best routes in the gorge! It climbs well and it's in a top spot

Sports climb, a tough one for the shorties.

excellent wall, serious lead

cool

Flashed at the New England Climbing IV

fucking hard

Good fun!

Nice!
