Reservoir Dogs
This rap-in halfway ledge is situated between the Sunbath and Sporting Complex areas of 'Medlow Bath', with the Hydro Majestic dominating the skyline above. The cliff face is mostly dead vertical and contains six two-pitch bolted routes and one two-pitch trad outing, all just under 40m long. The large ledge, the area above and the climbs themselves feature spectacular views out over the Megalong Valley. This area is located on private property owned by the Hydro Majestic Hotel. Access could be removed at any time. Please respect the land. Useful Info: At the bottom of the steps look a few metres to the right to find a pair of ringbolts at the top of a small gully. Rap down the short 45 degree sloped gully then the cliff itself. A 50m rope is easily long enough. It is best to bring a rope for this purpose and leave it in place. The route you rap down is 'Bohemiath'. If you wish to climb this route and not have the rap rope in the way you could rap from the top anchor of 'Stuck in the Middle with You', a few metres north - two rings a metre back from the cliff edge, set in a cavelet underneath a boulder. A 70m rope is barely sufficient for rapping or lowering off the <40m routes, with some rope stretch required to get a toe on the deck. Tie knots in the ends. The crag is in the sun from 1:00pm in summer and 11.00am in late winter. |

K-Billy's Super Sounds of the 70s
Seventies style trad. First ascent was even chalkless! (The leader forgot his chalk bag). One set of cams from yellow Alien to #4 Camalot and a set of wires will protect it. Substitute hexes for cams if you sport a toothbrush moustache and pony tail. Start: Marked "KB".
