Finally ticked it off! Very consistent for the grade. Started at 7 and took us 10 hours car to car but that was probably due to having a coffee while enjoying the view for 20 mins before we rapped in. Rope drag on 2nd and 4th pitch were tolerable. Carrots were difficult to locate so ran it out in a few places which wasn't anything to worry about considering how easy the climb is. Take a few short slings as cam and nut placements may not be available when you want them or may not appear to be of a trusting quality. Had a piece of iron stone ledge brake off in my hand while leading the final pitch. If you start this climb late ensure you bring sun protection.

First pitch looks chossy yet enjoyable despite its appearance. Chose offers poor placement options so used two ring bolts to the left to compensate for this. Only a few moves through the short slab albeit quite a lot of fun.
Second pitch face climbing is very good however the cave offers thin holds with no good placement options. An old steel peg (in good condition) is securely placed up the back of the cave offering needed protection. Fun climbing from the cave to the corner crack (#5) and up past the bush. Take slings to extend your placements to reduce rope drag.
Third pitch was short and is certainly the best of the route. Use slings for tree belay as evident ring barking from rope anchors.

First pitch was definitely value for money, perfect hex territory too. The first pitch was approx 20m gauging from the middle of the rope marker. The second pitch through the chimney was filled with a felled tree which Dusy kindly removed. The chimney is a scramble with no placement options (not that you need placement at all for this part). The second pitch is definitely no more than 15m however due to rope drag I would recommend belaying from the tree at the top of the chimney then heading up the final 5m. Worth doing for the first half of pitch 1 (option A in the Bluies guide book). The second half of this pitch 1 is a messy scramble through dirt and leaf litter. Loved this pitch!

Excellent beginner trad multipitch! Didn't place much gear for the first pitch as it was quite easy to read and climb. Got to the overhang which was identified as the belay station in the guide but decided to go to the next slightly smaller ledge as it looked like it'd offer more options for pro. There were a few options for solid placement of cams and nuts however it was all spread out here and there. Phuong led the second pitch (and popped his trad cherry). Second pitch seemed a little stiff for the grade, don't think we went off route as we were following the path of least resistance. Gum tree and huge bollard to the right of the top out best options for anchors. Excellent climb!

Our first trad multipitch! Heaps of rope drag in P1. Jen led P2 using creative backup placements by girth hitching slings. Not leading P2 I can say that it looked an easy one to lead. Lead P3, some thought provoking nut placements. Set up anchor in the short chimney which has a fixed hex in place. The shitty bolt was great to hang my pack from. Not much room in the chimney when Jen arrived. Jen led P4 which is really exposed after the rocky ledge. I was rope rescused for P4 & 5 due to injury

My first multipitch ever and a great introduction. The rap in involved avoiding some bushes. The first pitch was a 13 at best, nice easy slab. The belay station for the second pitch was on a nice small ledge about a foots length in depth. Just enough room to move around on and amazing views from here. The second pitch had two small overhangs to get through. Some trad gear is required for this route. The fixed pro is in good condition and there's a new set of carrots at the top for the anchor.

Nice crimpy moves after the first draw placement. Slightly balancy over the slab to the second draw with delicate toe placement. Very nice slab work then off right and up the crack.

An excellent climb with some thought provoking moves and a committing crux. Worth setting up the top rope anchor for this route.

Made the climb harder by following crack up to ceiling instead of traversing to the right on obvious break.
