Nodes in Tcharkuldu

Tcharkuldu is a camping and rest area just off the Eyre Highway in South Australia. It is famous for Tcharkuldu Rock, which is a granite rock formation just off the highway.

Located near the toilet/BBQ area at north side of area

Stand start, head up the face on good crimpy edges

Deceptively complex lowball offwidth weirdness. Start in the crack, puzzle your way up however you can.

Prominent dome with several entrances and surrounding learning boulders, on the north side of the area. Potentially same area as "The Dome Company" but not sure as there are a lot of dome shaped rocks here

Stand start with left hand in the arch, left hand on slightly sloping crimp edge. Make your way dynamically up a series of rough crimps, heading roughly "up and leftwards". An extension from a sit start would add one fun looking but very hard move

Sit start on the juggy handle to the right, mantle up into the unusual hollowed out shell and top out above

Arguably the best positioned boulder here. Located on the central east side, the boulder perched on the large flat granite slab. You may enjoy the view for a while if not careful, as there isn't many easy ways down

Stand start and head up the slabby scoop. Fairly high but the landing is as nice as you could hope for, and the rock appears excellent. Reversing the climb is possibly the easiest way down, although descent may also be possible on the side towards the fields if pads can be moved

The long curved 3-4m high face to the south of the area, with features left over from mining/drilling/explosives

Stand start on good hold formed from explosion, and head directly up with a series of gastons on the vertical drill line

Stand start with left in prominent side-pull jug and right hand on hip-height crimp block. Make committing move to gain the sloping rail then carefully mantle out.
