24 | ★★ Wave of Mutilation
A tricky crux on sensational turtle shell rock. The route begins at the left hand end of the Trench. Follow three FH to a chain anchor. A #2 Rock will protect the start, or stick-clip the first bolt. FA: Tim Marsh | 12m | |||
19 | ★★ Used Platypus Condom
Steep pumpy jug hauling on orange rock. Located on upper wall deep inside chasm. Two RB's to start then medium gear to DRB lower off. FA: Neil Monteith | 16m | |||
18 | ★ Over And Out
Wide overhung trench 4m right of 'Used Platypus Condom'. No wide trad gear required. Surprisingly steep and interesting. Walk off descent. FA: Neil Monteith Hannah Lockie, 2005 | 13m | |||
20 | ★★ Raver Girl
A pumpy rising traverse on gritty rock with a nails hard start. Starts 5m right of 'Over And Out' at right edge of undercut grey wall. Boulder past FH to gain horizontals. 'Monkey' leftwards across these (medium SLCD's) to a flake forming an arête. Up this arete (FH) to finish. Walk off descent. FA: Hannah Lockie Neil Monteith, 2005 | 15m | |||
21 | ★ Raver Boy
A thin direct finish to 'Raver Girl'. Climb past first FH to horizontals. Arrange pro (medium SLCD's) and head rightwards on thin crimpers past FH to good holds. Up juggy wall past 3rd FH to top. Walk off descent. FA: Neil Monteith Hannah Lockie, 2005 | 11m | |||
16 | ★ Aleutian Crack
The shrubbery isn't as bad as it looks! On the left side of the entrance to the Marianas Trench there is a wide crack. From the ground, scramble up on jumbled blocks for 5 meters to gain the base of the crack. A couple of layback moves take you to a grassy ledge. Climb the slab on the left of the crack to avoid some vegetation before stepping back into the line and on to the top. A big cam (4 Camalot or similar) is useful. FA: David Jupp & Tim Marsh, 2002 | 35m | |||
17 | ★ Pike
Good, delicate and well protected slab climbing. The slab and shallow cracks 5 meters left of Aelutian Crack. Climb short grassy crack onto the slab then follow the cracks to the base of the compact red/orange corner. Move left and finish up 'Cindy'. FA: David Jupp, Tim Marsh & Michael Homfray, 2002 | 35m | |||
21 | Pike Direct
A direct finish up the compact red/orange corner and the arete above has been top roped in the low 20's (depending upon reach), however, both rock and protection are poor. FA: Tim Marsh & Michael Homfray, 2002 | 35m | |||
9 | Elver
Two meters left of 'Cindy' is a broken chimney which splits the slab in half. Start 1-2m left of this chimney (5m left of Cindy) and follow the cracks in the slab before weaving through the tufts of grass above. A tricky start with minimal gear quickly gives way to very easily protected if occasionally mossy climbing. FA: David Jupp, Michael Homfray & Tim Marsh, 2002 | 30m | |||
14 | Cindy
Well protected moderate slab climbing with an entertaining finish. The short chimney crack to a dog leg crack three meters left of Pike. Take the ramp up right to the base of the shallow orange corner at the apex of the wall which is passed on the right. FA: David Jupp & Tim Marsh, 2002 | 35m |
