Difficult route finding and loose rock especially in the lower half. Very mental and not for the faint-hearted. More like grade 15 than 11. Led 6 pitches, Dave led 3. Some great pitches. 10 hours bottom to top. If you need to escape you can traverse off the Terrace into the Chasm.

Decent climb, easy after first two moves. Runout to second bolt is way less scary than it looks.

Look. I'm claiming this lead, after someone abandoned it, despite claims the existence of a couple of low-placed nuts made it a pink point. Who got to the top Paul? I think that settles it.

really interesting, once you worked it out, clipped the first and third bolt, but now that I know the moves, I'll do them all next time

Big holds. Fine once I got over almost falling into the chasm you have to step over to actually get on the climb, prior to first clip.

Fun! Committing move on lead between third and fourth bolts.
	17	★★ Wishbone - with Kym Campbell	Mixed trad 15m, 5	Average	Rebecca Trigger
Cruisy. Nice big ridges for feet, small mantle at top to reach dbb a few metres from edge. Salve to the ego after aborted attempt on next-door Fear the Smear.

You don't get many long multi-pitch routes in WA, but this is serious fun and a great day out. It packs a lot of variety into six pitches, and despite some decent runouts it's good holds all the way. Take a friend or two, a full rack of trad gear, and have an adventure. Expect 1.5h walk in, 7/8h climbing, and 1h walk down,
Sun 6th Oct 2013 - The Stirling Ranges
Bluff Knoll North Face
	17	★★ Hell Fire Gully 1 16 lead by Ashley Felton 2 17 lead by Ashley Felton	Trad 250m	★ Good	Ashley Felton
Found this an awful lot harder than the 14 grade would suggest, more like a 17/18. Mainly due to the difficulty in setting protection, much of the climb was run-out to an unsettling degree. White-knuckle trad climbing at its finest. Lots of loose rock, as you'd expect. Our progress up the face was too slow, so we had to traverse out at the top of pitch two via the Prickle Traverse (this was mercifully a safe and straightforward walk back to the tourist trail). Next time.

Good weather, track in was difficult to find. Approach slabs were wet and dangerous. Rock was in great condition. Ring bolts were slightly run-out.
