Routes as unknown in Top End

A caving style squeeze route exists inside this buttress, shady and cool and really nice if you are into that kind of thing (wallaby faeces, spider webs and abraded skin). It travels the full height of the buttress. In the cave below, chimney up and squeeze through gap to exit on the batcave. Step left and continue groveling, to body jam width. FRA (Solo) Stuart Anderson, although likely bat and gecko reseachers, pre arrival aboriginals and most species of local python and spider are likely to have beaten me to it.

Left of Pink Moon on the arete there are five camouflaged bolts. Follow obvious line to top with sneaky juggs on right fo top out onto carrot bolts. Requires meat belay from ground for descent.

On face standing on Camp Rock the obvious crack line, intimidating step across from the camp rock onto face, low protection required to stop falling into the gap. Small wires and cams to top, unprotected top to carrot bolts or walk off back.

Mixed pro, desperate 2nd bolt.

Stick clip, very high first bolt

Run out finish.

Stick clip high bolt, Short and sharp.

1BR not much else reliable for pro. Everything looks like it will break.

Another runout finish.

An outstanding and very engaging climb on the back side of the pillar. Climb the right side to until you can tenuously bridge the gap between. Follow the steep crack up to the roof, then traverse right under the roof to ledge. Finish easily up from here. Watch rope drag

As mentioned above, starts on softish rock this climb develops into one of the best (if a little short) corners you could want to climb. Some committed lay backing with a convenient rest at mid height. Does it get any better??

Directly on the other side of the pinnacle from Harvey Crumpet is a fine line that takes a shallow right facing seam. This climb is easily identified by wildly undercut area just to the right. Follow the seam up onto the slabby wall then delicately up

Stunning climb, a bolt or a large set of nuts (not the wired kind)and a small brain will see it led one day. Start on the right hand side of the front buttress, right of the obvious corner. Up the face trending right, then up the wall just left of Where Dick Goes Down.

The name gives it away. Good safe and well protected beginners lead.

Up the front of the buttress on the RHS of the Sanctuary entrance, opposite Where Dick Goes Down. Go up the short corner on the right of the summit roof. Grade 15 if you go straight up the initial unprotected overhang.

Nice direct finish to rambler. Up the initial unprotected overhang and straight up through the top overhang. Done in Hiking boots originally.

Nice climb, needs one very small (very) cam

Face between Rambler and Coupla More Hectapascals. Start from small tree up onto largish vegetated ledge, then up through lovely short slabby face and over small roof to top. Watch the loose block just before toe top. A good climb.

Left and right variants exist at about same grade

Starts left of Ficus. Climb straight up left of Ficus, traverse right below bulge, up and over to finish.

Wander up the front of the pinnacle

Obvious easy line of weakness left of Rations

First pitch about grade 11, up to nice clean corner at 15. Obvious easy line left of Supply line to ledge. Second pitch is obvious orange corner.

Up to and into very obvious and memorable crackline through beautiful blank headwall to finish

Very cool, 2 cruxes and lots of good climbing in between. Great pro. Around the corner right of Supply line. Take thin crack in rooflet then up wall to ledge. Overhanging finish.

Harder than it looks!!! Start at slabby face near rocky gully, climb face through a dicky mantle and a series of small overhanging sections. Finish up arete.

Gnarly looking line through a series of pockets in the centre of the wall to a sloping and nasty crux. This line was reportedly climbed earlier bysome visiting crew from WA, few details recorded of this ascent.

Starting at the end of the overhung red face, stepping left at 6m to gain arete. Exciting and exposed climbing.

Much loved except by lovers of sheep. The really obvious mantelshelf near the base of

NES. Really just a boulder problem, however it is usually toproped due to the dangerous

landing.

Looks like a great line, Ist assensionists report it is dangerously loose in places
