Good slabing with a sting in the tail, 4 carrots and one br.

Line of carrots and fhs to the right of frangipani.

Take the ramp and follow the chalk, glory jugging on an overhung wall. Alternate start to ramp, climb bougainvillaes start at the same grade.

FA: Matthes Kerkmann

Pumpy with a staunch crux.

Line of camo rbs, thin cruxs with sustained climbing the whole way.

Break left at 'Barramundi Dreamings's' 5th bolt and follow 3 U-bolts to anchor

FA: Jason McCarthy, 14 Jun 2014

Glory jugging, follow fhs.

Great route, sustained and great quality.

Tricky crux through strange ramp, great climb at the grade.

There are two options to finish this climb. Right of the fig tree or continue up left of the tree through dirty rock past one carrot and possibly two rings. The left option is rarely climbed.

Solid featured rock with a little bit of everything.

Set: 2 Dec 2018

Battle the bulge Big moves across the steepest face in the gully finish off with a crimpy traverse.

Set: 2 Dec 2018

Warning Rock: Falling rocks

Stellar climbing takes the left line up this gently overhanging wall. Sustained and bomber rock.

FA: Matthes Kerkmann

There are some nice technical transition sequences that would make an onsite ascent of this climb feel about a grade harder.

FA: Mark Schultz

Next to cave

Another climb bolted with Fixe wedge bolts in soft rock. RECOMMENDED TO NOT BE CLIMBED

Great short technical climb, starts right of ride my ramp.

FA: Col Reese & Andy, 2009

Technical left hand traversing line of fhs. Great sequences.

FA: Matthes Kerkmann

Up first two FH's of 'Linkshander' then over bulge, trends left to ledge then right and up to anchors. Very thin and sequency

Set: Jason McCarthy & Jenna Brady, 2012

FA: 2012

The scary stemming corner, dodgy pro and rock. Not for the faint hearted.

FFA: 7 Oct 2018

Beginners and kiddies adventure climb with an interesting 5th bolt

Set: Adam

FFA: Adam & Chris Jokinen, Jan 2019

Best warm up and beginner climb, 3 carrots and one br.

Great alt start to Vegemite, 3 carrots one fh.

A couple of harder moves at the second and fifth bolt due to smallish footholds, the rest steady and enjoyable. Can be a bit sandy as all routes on this wall.

FA: Andreas Roilo, 26 Aug 2016

Follow line of 4 carrots one br, shares anchor with dynamite.

3m left of 'Black Betty'

Note: small cams
