---|---|---|---|---|---|
23 | White Lie
Start 10 metres left of 'Random Route' on a ledge six metres up. Climb the wall to some wire placements, then awkward moves to the bolt. Pass this with difficult, then up the short diagonal crack. FA: Richard Watts & Mike Law-Smith, 1983 | 10m, 1 | |||
13 | Random Route
An obvious, marked corner with a bulging right wall, when walking down left from 'Bile'. The name says it all.
FA: Neil Anderson & Peter Aitchison, 1969 | 64m, 4 | |||
14 | ★ Random Route Variant
A good alternative second pitch is the steep corner crack four metres to the right. FA: Mike Todd & Tony Wood, 1969 | 12m | |||
16 | ★★ Random Route Direct Finish
The direct finish! | 12m | |||
17 | Randy Route
Harder and slightly more direct. Start after pitch two of 'Random Route'.
FA: Ian Lewis & Lincoln Hall, 1974 | 32m, 2 | |||
19 | ★ Dropkick
Start about four metres left of the second pitch of 'Random Route' at an obvious corner. Up the corner past a bolt and continue up to a short crack. Move left to a second bolt and up the water-streaked wall to an overhang and thread runner. Pull onto the ledge and traverse left to belay. FA: Mike Peck & Joe Lynch, 1987 | 15m, 2 | |||
22 | Dropkick Direct Finish
A steep finish which is a considerable improvement on the original. Instead of traversing left below the overhang, continue straight up past a fixed wire and two bolts. Move left and up the arete after the second bolt. FA: David Jenkins & Simon Carter, 1990 | 18m, 2 | |||
19 | ★★ Mirage
A good companion route to 'Morning Thunder'. The belay shimmers 10 metres over the horizon. Start three metres right of 'Random Route' in a corner to the right of a loose column. Up the blocky corner, then more difficult moves up the wall above following the incipient cracks. Move right at the top (or harder, straight up) and then easy moves up the slab. FA: John Smart, 1982 | 25m | |||
23 | Thermovision
Start on a bushy ledge five metres right of 'Mirage'. Up a brushed streak with two bolts; take some small wires and RPs. FA: Adam Blizzard, Mike Peck & Ken Luck, 1987 | 30m, 2 | |||
15 | ★ Eavesdropper
A mediocre traverse. Start five metres left of 'Pelican Punch'.
FA: John Hoskins & Tony Wood, 1970 | 80m, 3 | |||
22 | Wes' Birthday
The thin bolted wall left of 'Pelican Punch'. Two bolts on the first wall, and two on the top wall. FA: Tallis Didcott & Wes Smith, 1990 | 30m, 4 | |||
16 | ★★ Pelican Punch
The prominent crack line on the wall left of the first pitch of 'Hurricane Cracks'. Up the wide flake crack then a ramp to a diagonal line which takes you to a ledge on 'Hurricane Cracks'. FA: Phil Cullen, 1970 | 20m | |||
15 | ★★ Hurricane Cracks
Popular, with an excellent second pitch. Start at a short slab eight metres right of 'Eavesdropper'.
FA: Peter Aitchison & Neil Anderson, 1968 | 55m, 2 | |||
16 | ★ Singularity
Uninspiring and dirty in appearance, but the climbing isn't too bad. Start 12 metres to the right of 'Hurricane Cracks'.
FA: Peter Aitchison & John Price, 1968 | 52m, 2 | |||
22 | Lust in the Dust
The thin brushed wall right of 'Singularity' with four bolts. A dirty finish leads to a bolt belay on a mossy ledge. Rap off. FA: Mike Peck, 1989 | 15m, 4 | |||
14 | ★★ Lichen to Love
Aptly named and a fine companion to other routes in the vicinity. Start at the lichenous pillar right of 'Singularity'. Up the pillar and flakes before moving right across the moss to a corner. Up this and more moss to a large bushy ledge. FA: Phil Cullen & Peter Mills, 1970 | ||||
17 | Dratsab
Another moss and dirt special. Start at an obvious corner crack 20 metres to the right of and below 'Singularity'. The first pitch is worthwhile.
FA: Peter Aitchison & Tony Wood, 1968 | 75m, 3 | |||
17 | Bluetongue
Very dirty. The crack three metres to the right of 'Dratsab'. Climb the crack to a ledge, up left to another crack and then leftwards up a diagonal crack. Done in two pitches. FA: Peter Mills & Lincoln Hall, 1974 | 35m | |||
15 | ★ Felix
Start (marked) two metres right of 'Bluetongue' in a niche. Up the open corner, right then back left up a sloping ramp and corner to a ledge. Up the V-split cracks to finish. Done in two pitches. FA: Tony Wood & Graham Horrocks, 1967 | 34m | |||
22 | Lager Frenzy
The obvious brushed line left of 'Derision'. A hard start leads to sustained slab climbing past two bolts. Follow the brushed line left to a third bolt and up past this on flakes. Scramble up the choss to belay. FA: Mike Peck, Adam Blizzard & Craig Kentwell, 1987 | 30m, 3 | |||
15 | ★ Derision
The dirty crack 30 metres right of 'Felix'. Climb the corner crack, scramble up the choss, then step right into a crack. Originally two pitches. FA: Graham Still & Tony Wood, 1967 | 38m | |||
14 | Flying Tortoise
The curving chimney eight metres right of 'Derision'.
FA: Joe Friend, 1973 | 50m, 2 | |||
15 | No Wucking Forries
More choss. The obvious chimney two metres right of 'Flying Tortoise'.
FA: Gary Scott & Simon Parker, 1975 | 45m, 2 | |||
17 | The Bleeder
"Horrible and harder than 17 for a human being." - Chris Larque. The obvious corner crack and chimney at the bottom of 'Cocker's Gully' (50 metres right of 'Flying Tortoise').
FA: Bryden Allen † & Ray Lassman, 1971 | 50m, 2 | |||
13 | ★★ Red Strides Gully
Another poxy gully route. Start four metres right of 'The Bleeder'. Up the buttress to a platform, into the gully, then right and over the boulder. Up to a large ledge and finish up the crack on the left. FA: Tony Wood & John Hoskins, 1971 | 28m | |||
10 | ★ The Lace Face
Start at the gully right of 'Red Strides Gully'. Climb the groove in the right wall. FA: Bill Wilson & C. Claridge, 1975 | 20m | |||
18 | Crack left of Tea Bag
FA: Unknown | ||||
18 | Tea Bag
Start beneath the clean line five metres left of 'Passionfruit Crack'. A bouldery start leads to a crack. Up this, through the bulge, and up the wall above. FA: John Stone & Bill Begg, 1979 | 25m | |||
19 | ★★ Ratbag
Between 'Fleabag' and 'Tea Bag' with one bolt and RP placements. FA: Ed Garnett & Noel Ward, 1996 | 20m, 1 | |||
19 | ★★ Fleabag
White fleapowder has cleaned up the originally friable holds and dirt - quite popular and well worthwhile. Climb the brushed wall with three bolts about three metres left of 'Passionfruit Crack'. Take some RPs and wires. FA: Dave McGregor, Mike Peck & Simon Carter, 1985 | 20m, 3 | |||
7 | Passionfruit Crack
The garbage gully 20 metres below and right of 'Red Strides Gully'. Walk up the gully with a bit of chimneying at the top for variety. FA: John Hoskins & C. Douglas, 1970 | 28m | |||
19 | Scumbag
No Bolts! The thin crack and flake just right of 'Passionfruit Crack'. Getting to the first protection is somewhat perilous. FA: Joe Lynch & Mike Peck, 1985 | 25m | |||
25 | ★ Candy Samples
Technical and fingery climbing on a deceptive wall. Takes the brushed waterstreak 10 metres right of 'Scumbag'. Up the flake to a bolt. Climb past this and a couple of wire placements to a second bolt and the crux. Struggle up this into the easy groove and up to a tree belay. FA: Mike Peck & Joe Lynch (yo-yo), 1986 FFA: Steve Mayers & Scott Camps, 1986 | 25m, 2 | |||
24 | ★ Mudshark
Fairly sustained with a hard finish up into the groove. Start about four metres right of 'Candy Samples' at the incipient corner. Thin moves up the slab to the flake then continue up the wall past three bolts into the easy groove. Walk up this to the top and a tree belay. FA: Tony Barten, Joe Lynch & Mike Peck, 1986 | 25m, 3 |
