Routes as trad in Perth

Some confusion over this line. The 2nd edition of CAWA's Perth Rock Climbing Guide has this line as the steep crack just left and round the side of 'Krakaddiction'. The line is actually the slightly overhanging crack at the right end of the face round the corner, above the shallow pool (see photo). There is a rusty bolt at the start, before the route joins an often dirty crack which runs to the top.

Start below bolt (hanger required) and move right to FH (long draw to reduce drag) then delicately move back left to gain black slab. Hard moves up to groove and continue to small that takes gear.

Climb on the crack only (without using opposite wall to chimney). Its quite strenuous and sustained with the some great moves especially the top half.

Start the same as My Face Is Numb, traverse till you get to the small finger crack and place small cam, then up to first and then second carrot bolt on the face. (Don't stand/rest on opposing rock wall, Keep to the rock you started on)

Start in left of right trending crack. Strenuously underling up crack to jams and crimps at top. Small cams and nuts required.

This climb is desperate crimp-and-smearfest and that's on a good day! Start approx 3m L of On The Slide, on solid, flaky rock just R of the round nose. Option to thread a wire/ thin tape pro on spike, then up to 1st bolt. Slightly L to 2nf bolt where an extreme but short crux leads to 3rd bolt. Up the easier slab past 4th bolt to lower off anchors.

The big ol' roof crack on the right boulder, get ready for this flower to eat you up and dribble you out. Either trail second rope or view https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCljblIsMYk for drag reduction technique

Up large flake then up.

The left line

Obvious arête 3m left of Flipside. Three spots of pro bring a nut, FH, and 0.5 or 0.75 cam.

Mixed Trad

Starting to the far left, climb the slab to first piece of pro. Move over the roof to the crack and place more pro. Move up and traverse right pasting your feet to good rest hold, continue right into small finger crack and finish scrambling up the gully. *Protection is good but there isn't much.

Follow the seam and continue up the arete on it's RH side to a tricky mantle and easy finish. Just enough gear.

Unprotected. Northern most Boulder. Hard start to easy scoop.

The right line

Start 3 m right of Caledonian Way. Climb the wall on thin holds to the first bolt. Step left delicately to below the small bulge. Desperate climbing gains a tenuous foothold below the second bolt. The high left handhold can be gained by a variety of frightening moves. Continue on easier rock and finish as for Major. If you fall during the tricky clip of the 2nd bolt you may well deck out. Character building.

The thin seam up the centre of the wall opposite Mac's Crack, protected by small nuts. Vertically challenged individuals may experience trouble starting, others may not have time to place pro!

The arete on the second boulder with one BR

Most of this route has fallen down and the remainder is threatening to fall any day now. So beware!

Start as for Split Personality but don't move left. Go directly up on small holds to the ledge. Dynamic moves to get over the headwall.

Four bolts and small friends.

Shares start with A Boring Day in Baghdad. Place some small friends then tremble and quiver your way up the overhanging wall with 2 bolts to DBB.

The most deceptive line on the crag. Start at the blocks just right of Red Giant. Up over the bulge to clip. Move left to a triangular niche and up thin lay-away crack past another bolt, into a cave. Step right to an undercling, clip and grovel to the top.

Start as for First Route, protecting with gear if desired. Then go direct up the wall to the right of the First Route crack to the first FH. Continue along the bolted line towards the top out.

As for Super Slab but after the first bolt go directly up to the second one and then directly up to the sentry box above. Finish up the crack.

Needs cams to protect top.

A classic Peth jamming crack. A tough start leads to pleasant jamming. Take small to medium cams and nuts.

Start between 'Friend of Easy' and 'Nice And Easy', straight up and traverse right on gear, going up through two bolts

Just right of Book of Torah. High first bolt – stick clip it !! One more bolt and some finger sized gear and smaller. Amusing boulder problem start to easy slab. Use DBB up high as for Book of Torah. Scramble down off right.

Mixed trad (gear & 2 FH bolts. The very obvious groove or shallow corner that is used as a reference point, located approximately midway across the crag. Ensure that good small wires/cams are placed before the committing 1st bolt clip-and-crux sequence. Continue up seam to lower off anchor of White Elephant.

Mixed trad (4 bolts & gear). Start at base of obvious crack/drain. Up crack to 1st bolt FH (8m). Move R approx 2m and up to base of featureless light gray slab to 2nd FH. Straight up from here, keeping bolts to your L before reaching short headwall and lower off anchors. (medium to large cams) One of the classics of Mt Cuthbert.

Climb the chimney at the L end of the crag then traverse out, around and up the crack.

Originally and aid route called Band Aid, this overhanging finger crack will result in you laybacking like never before. Protect with nuts and small to medium cams. Perhaps best natural route in Perth.

Shares anchor with Urban Ethics. The anchor sits after a sharp ledge. It would be recommended when top roping to use a fixed rope and when decending rappel or walk down.

Old deathroute. First pitch now hopelessly entwined in new bolted routes.

Start in the crack and move out to the right arete. Powerful moves to get to the top

Start just to the left of Red Giant at the overhanging left side of the block. Up to the line of Red Giant and follow it to the first bolt. Move right and up face past the next bolt to a large ledge. Move left and up the wall past another bolt to finish (crux).

Start as for Gate of Mordor then after reaching the top section trend right following the last two fixed hangers for Red Giant

Follow hand crack until gaining the first ledge. A carrot bolt has been added to the second ledge to protect the mantle. Powerful moves on delicate gear are required to follow the overhang to the left. The top section is runnout but cruisy

Start 1 m right of Flypaper at the moss-speckled wall with a thin crack. Climb the wall directly to the bolt of Flypaper. Finnish through small V-notch in the skyline.

Start 2 m right of Bootiful. Climb through the two V-shaped niches and take the great wall direct past a bolt at 15 m. Gaining the bolt is totally desperate.

Start as for Sundowner. Climb to the first bolt, then up and right to reach the piton in the triangular niche on Bootiful. Follow the groove up and left to the sentry box and finish through the overhanging hand jam crack.

There is a single bolt at the top of the route or numerous trees to set a top rope. Walk to the top of the route is only a few minutes.

Originaly done as a V1 highball. It has also been done with ropes and settles out at a more reasonable and well protected grade 20.

Clean steep and classic crack climbing.

Grunty moves off the ground to escape gravity and the end will test your wide crack finesse.

Rather exciting without a rope.

Arête left of slot machine. Very bad protection.

Location unclear

Looking at wall the climb and another near it form the outline of Africa. The climb is 6-7 metres long, small to mid size cams required, laybacks and underclings for about a 19/20grade.

Loose blocks at top. Is located at Inner Gosnells Quarry up on the Goatland area in to the left.

As for Book of Torah, but at the second bolt head straight up to the stereotypical LASER finger crack. It’s too short and a not steep enough but it’s still rather memorable. 2 bolts and some finger sized gear and smaller. Use the same DBB as Book of Torah. Scramble off right and down.

Magic broomsticks were out in force during the first ascent. Starts at the thin crack behind a bottle brush. Squeeze up through the branches with technical footwork and disappointing finger locks to a sloper jug. Thin gear. A delicate move takes you to an easy angled, gear gobbling crack that leads to a DBB lower off.

Starts as per flashdance. Climb straight up to bolt and top out.

The start can be protected with small nuts, then continues past 1 carrot bolt. Shares anchors with Fedayeen

Start below the piton. Can be protected at 3m by a small nut out right. Continue straight up past piton to loweroffs.

Thin. Risky.
