18 Cacophonix

Start up the overhanging wall thru great rails up the bulging then face move left into finger-crack finish

Fairly large (plate sized, 3cm) rock at the start of Cacophonix (the 18 going up the outside corner) is loose and sounds very hollow. Quite low to the ground but could cause a nasty scare for climber and belayer if it came off unexpectedly. Is marked but will rub off soon.

Muizenberg Trad
17 Reacher

I believe we opened this new pitch. It is just a simple line just after the last pitch of Muesli. Just look at the hole in the roof that works as a nice undercling. Moving to the right reduces the grade to 16. Going to the jug on the top left after the undercling gives this pitch the 17 grade. Continue easily to the top.

Follow the track that contours the base of the mountain until able to see an impressive chockstone in an unusual place. The route starts around 6m to the right of the chockstone.

  1. Climb easily towards an obvious undercling hold and move to the face on the right climbing it until able to get to a ledge.

  2. Climb the crack system just above the anchor of the first pitch and move left when at the same height of a dead bush. Move up the face until able to reach the horizontal rail. Jam left on an airy traverse to belay from an airy stance around the corner on a small ledge.

  3. Climb straight up the easy rock band until able to see a cairn.

  4. Around 4m right of the cairn climb up for 5m and move weirdly to the left towards two twin parallel cracks that can be seen from the bottom of this pitch. Climb up the cracks to a small roof, move right to a recess to reach another face. Climb the face up to a ledge just below an easy looking brown face.

Scramble leads to the top.
