Description

Boulders in the bush on the way to Clamshell Falls. Park at Behana Gorge Carpark. Walk toward falls along walkway road.

Access issues inherited from Cairns

Be wary at any coastal or riverside crags for the potential of crocodiles and if you're in the water marine stingers.

Approach

Walk up the road to the gorge, and just 100m after the second national park sign a few hundred metres in, you cross a little dry creek bed. Follow that creek to the right and the boulders are just on the right side of that, 30-40m from the road.

Ethic inherited from Cairns

Clean up wherever you go, take your rubbish, or any you find out with you. Brush chalk. So many of these areas are pristine and we should all make an effort to keep it that way.

Clean and brush but try minimise destroying vegetation. Steel wire brushes are okay in most places but avoid if possible.

Tick marks are ok, but please brush them off when you leave.

Please don't chip holds and do minimise contrived routes. Also minimise route beta in descriptions to ease onsight attempts.

For any route you create that you know is hard to find, please add in the lat and long in the route details / geotag it so it can be found using maps. Finding the routes in the rainforest can be hard.
