Nice. This climb is below twins. Don’t do what we did and wander off into goat country looking for the end of the crag.

	16	★ Sloth Sally	Trad 10m	Crap	Sean Ealey
super chossy, basically a collection of loose blocks and flakes waiting to pull off. protection is not great, not really worth doing
	14 ~13	★ Twins	Trad 12m		Sean Ealey
great climb and bomber cam placements the whole way up, definitely sport 14 not trad 14

	20	★ Toad Hall - with Mark Thomson	Sport 10m, 5		Andrew Davies
Too hard for me!
	13	Vaughns Smelly Crack	Top rope 10m	Average	Andrew Davies
Not sure why this marked as "top rope" because it has bomber pro.
	14	★ Twins - with Mark Thomson	Trad 12m	★★ Very Good	Andrew Davies
Better than it looks. Despite appearances a couple of small cams are useful.

	16	★ Sloth Sally - with Andrew Grech	Trad 10m	★★ Very Good	Cliff Barnett
Bring small cams and hope they hold in the slightly suspect rock. Nice finger crack leading to layback move with a handy tree to help you with the top out.
	20	FA ★ Toad Hall - with Matt Tranter	Sport 10m, 5	★ Good	Cliff Barnett
Easy to ledge then thin face climbing finishing with a throw to a jug pebble.

Sun 11th Mar 2018 - Badgerys Lookout
	18	Ring Rise, Ring Set	Sport 11m, 3	Average	Donald Gibson
The first bolt is too high. Combined with the friable rock, this makes the route unsafe to lead in its current condition. If you would like to lead, I’d suggest placing a plate and draw from abseil or top rope, then either pre clipping the first bolt or making the draw from a long sling. In addition the climb felt hard for 18 - but perhaps that’s because I am not used to limestone / conglomerate rock.
	15	★ Lay back Bertha	Top rope 10m	★ Good	Donald Gibson
Good moves - even if some of the holds felt as though they might break off in your hands. Also, maybe a little harder than 15, particularly if it is bolted and becomes a lead climbing route.
	18	OCD Top Out	Top rope 10m	Average	Donald Gibson
A bit contrived to avoid touching the adjacent climbs.
	14	★ Twins	Trad 12m	★ Good	Donald Gibson
Lovely climbing. Very straightforward with unlimited options for trad gear and one bolt at the bulge near the top.
	18	★★ The Intimidator	Sport 10m, 3		Donald Gibson
Lovely bouldering moves up to the second bolt, then a little run out to the last bolt, especially as the climb is on carrots meaning the last bolt feels a bit tenuous to clip. To make it easier to clip, I placed the last bolt on top rope before leading it. Felt harder than 18 - but is definitely a good climb with great moves.

	17	★ Wrecked Car Crack	Mixed trad 20m, 4	★★ Very Good	Josh-wah
Fun corner crack with a little exposure and some good views. Can be top roped. Lots of loose rocks second half of climb. Make sure belayer has helmet.
	16 15	★ Lay back Bertha	Top rope 10m	★★ Very Good	Josh-wah
Easy start, layback flake harder with cruz just after the flake I reckon. Harder than a 15 due to finishing moves. Good route.
	14	★ Twins	Trad 12m	★★ Very Good	Josh-wah
Short and easy but fun. Can be top roped. Two eye bolts at top of route.

	18	★ Cart-wheeling to the Edge of Infinity - with Oscar Bell, Vaughn Edmonds	Mixed trad 20m, 5	★ Good	Adam Rabjohns
Had a little play on this route , using the DBBs from Gravity. Line tends left of bolts.
	22	Excalibur - with Oscar Bell, Vaughn Edmonds	Sport 20m, 5		Adam Rabjohns
Abseiled in off the chains at the top. The route is very loose with a high chance of dislodging rocks while climbing. I bailed just before the last move
	17	★ Wrecked Car Crack - with Oscar Bell, Vaughn Edmonds	Mixed trad 20m, 4	★★ Very Good	Adam Rabjohns
Fun corner crack climb, crux is about 1/2 way up. I lead the last move after another climber bailed.
	15	★ Lay back Bertha - with Vaughn Edmonds	Top rope 10m	★ Good	Adam Rabjohns
Fun little lay back. We top roped the route but i would like to add some bolts in the future to make it a sport route.

	16	War's End - with Brett webb, Paul zucchetto, Vaughn Edmonds	Mixed trad 20m, 3	Average	Adam Rabjohns
Not sure if i went the right way for the last few meters. The rock was covered in moss...needs a good clean.
	16	★ Sloth Sally - with Vaughn Edmonds, Brett webb	Trad 10m	★ Good	Adam Rabjohns
	6	No Time - with Vaughn Edmonds	Trad 17m		Adam Rabjohns
Crux last move.
	14	★ Twins	Trad 12m	★ Good	Adam Rabjohns
Tend left of the line of bolts, start near cave on the left. Needs a couple more bolts for safety.

Friable rock. Holds kept on breaking off!
	18	★★ The Intimidator	Sport 10m, 3	★★ Very Good	Gavin Evans
Pumpy. 1 rest at 2nd bolt. Toproped on 22/9/03.
	17	★ Wrecked Car Crack	Mixed trad 20m, 4	Average	Gavin Evans
Dirty but a good variety of moves. Hally lead, Steve 2nd. Almost got taken out when Steve dislodged a large handhold.
	16	★ Twins	Trad 12m	★★ Very Good	Gavin Evans
Nice climb up parallel cracks. Hally lead. Toproped on 10/5/04
	18	★ Cart-wheeling to the Edge of Infinity	Mixed trad 20m, 5	★ Good	Gavin Evans
Probably grade 19. Hally lead.
