Summary

Fun deep water solo area on good rock with plenty of potential.

Description

Watch out for the barnacles! Big jugs all over. Climb up for fun and jump off when scared.

Access issues

Don't come here if there is a big swell running..

Approach

Access by kayak or paddle board is easiest, make sure the swell is under 3ft... You can carry watercraft down from the point perp carpar via the tubes fire trail. If you are up for a multi sport adventure it is possible to swim from the Gully

Ethic inherited from Point Perpendicular

Point Perp is predominantly a trad crag. There has been more bolting recently but this is a particularly contentious topic. A lot of the bolts are the traditional Aussie carrot and some routes require you to bring up to a dozen keyhole hangers.

Grade Route

Obvious route up the arete then travers across sunbaking ledge above hairy pores and up flake.

Committing heel up to nice sun baking ledge... Jump when ready

Easy climbing, crux is finding good rock at the start closer to the water

Conquer the overhang via some fun layback moves. When at the comfortable ledge take a deep breath and use the finger crack to go a bit higher.

Up the left face of the arete to the obvious ledge, then bombs away.
