Description

Located under the phantom wall these boulders offer great climbing on solid rock. Home to some of the best climbs in the gorge. These boulders are best climbed in the afternoon as they see morning sun.

Access issues inherited from Kalbarri

The Parks Service are welcoming to climbers, however there are some minor restrictions. Camping is no longer permitted in the Gorge itself, however Z Bend Group Campsite is open to climbers for $8 per person per night. The site is off-limits when booked by school/scout groups, so it is worth calling in advance before making the journey north. Registration and booking can be made at the Kalbarri National Park Visitor Centre on Grey Street, or by phone (08) 9937 1140. Note also that a WA Parks Pass is required for entry.

Ethic inherited from Kalbarri

There used to be a "No Swearing North of Northampton" rule. Breaking it, particularly at The Prom, would earn you push-ups as dictated by Remi. A boulder in The Pit derives its name from this now mostly abandoned rule.

Sit start on left rail and right undercling. Trend right towards to top of arete.

Sit start on obvious rail. Choose your adventure top out on bad holds or fun dyno.

Well featured face - good to warm up on.

Sit start, then up the obvious slots.

FA: Andy Lampard, 2016

Stand start right hand edge and left hand low undercling, big move to left pocket and flip the bird for the camera. Sit start is a project.

Sit start on good holds. Huge move to the sloper to gain the stand. The kicker down low is in.

FA: Jake Cardosa, 3 Jul 2022

Sit start on the right and traverse left into the original. Bit of a consolation prize for the sitter...

FA: Michael Taran, Jul 2022

Stand start at the base of obvious boulder at the end of the ravine. Straight up. Needs a good spotter. https://vimeo.com/220422717
