Routes in Lake Adelaide

A great little route as either an alternative start to the East Ridge or a short climb on its own.

Superb climbing and great position/ exposure in lower half, then runs out of steam in upper section.

Arguably the greatest rock climb in New Zealand.

Two steep pitches up a continuous crack to join the North Buttress route where it briefly traverses round towards the NE Face.

Access route from ground level to ledges under the Vass-Judge. Can scramble up to Tootsies from the top of the first pitch

Long slab and face climb right of the water streak on the Phil's Biv slabs.

Slab and face that straightens out and extends the original Tootsies

Good slabby face climbing marred by poor bolts

Daisy is a multi-pitch climb on the north-east face of Barrier Knob. Nice moves in every pitch on great quality rock.

1st Pitch 12 2nd Pitch 19 3rd Pitch 18 4th Pitch 15 5th Pitch 20

Nice, well protected climb. Good fun.

Traverse left along a prominent ledge to the base of the buttress. Pitch 1: Easy groove right of buttress. Pitch 2: Steep wall and cracks, round right to groove and then right onto rib and up to a sloping belay (crux pitch). Pitch 3: On up rib, round right over blocks, up groove and out right up exposed 2-metre wall. Pitch 4 (7 m): Scramble up to ridge.

Direct start to SE Buttress. Steep and interesting climbing with some loose, shattered flakes. The buttress above is the best part.

Climb the ridge on the left of the South Face of the West Twin.
