Ascents of Mergers and Aquisitions

What an outing! It took more landscaping than climbing to send this one. The second pitch we're renaming the "veggie patch" as its currently the grow op of an abundance of ferns and 1 decent sized shrub that will provide a decent sling in a few more years. The updraft today was ridiculous, sending all the ferns i pulled out of the crack up the face of the wall. Doubles in all the wrong cams made this quite exciting and threw my plan of sewing it up out the window. I absolutely recommend this route to anyone that enjoys a bit of adventure. The turn off is about 4.5km from Deans Gap rd and there is now a boom gate at the entrance. There is no burnt out car anymore, but its obvious where it was. Wish we had more time, can't wait to go back for the Naughty Corner.

Would be a destination route with a bit more excavation

Fantastic crack feature that's been climbed before. Gave it a revamp with new bolts, belay and lower off. Bring your trad gear and give it a go.
