Ascents in Kangaroo Point by Jeff Callow

A bit pumpy for the grade.

Majorly awkward. Pteradactyl is a much better climb.

Classic climb!

Good learner trad climb.

3 laps

3 laps

Climbed on trad gear. Needed a selection of smaller nuts and the following cams: 0.2, 0.5, 1 (need 2-3) and no. 3.

Very dirty

A bit dirty

Left-hand variant (same as trad route, but using the bolts)

Classic as always

Need to work out the sequence of moves at the two overhangs. Apart from that, a really nice climb.

The roof at the top of the slab has changed since I last climbed this route back 11 years ago. There's a build up of sand or set cement powder or something similar that has removed some of the former hand-holds on the rocks of the roof. So the roof moves are a bit harder than they used to be.

This is a great climb. Took massive fall from just under the anchor down to the third bolt. This climb could do with another bolt somewhere on the final slab!

Make sure you have some small cams with you: 0.3 & 0.4 are a must!

Good lead climb practise

Nice bit of crack climbing work. Rock a bit flaky at the bottom (hence the name).

Enjoyable warm-up. No marking, so not sure if I climbed Zoro or this one.

Easy warm up

Enjoyable challenge (for me)

Climb has two or three alternate routes. Bolts available for lead climbing. In shade of trees near southern stairs.
