Routes as boulder in Binalong

The easiest way to do this short sit start problem is V2. You can of course eliminate heel hooks, the use of multiple hands etc and call it harder.

Stand start on the left arete and up.

Thought to be easier by the FA, this sit start problem with poor feet and almost no handholds - very rare for granite, volcanic tuff and suchlike - was given V4 by attempted repeaters.

Sit start as for 'Shartitude' and execute an insanely big dyno from there to the sloper dish, WITHOUT ANY INTERMEDIATES. From there, an easy topout. This is a German word which indicates follow-through.

Stand start. Crap on Magoo's hat and up.

Sit start and up on the easier side of the boulder.

Balancy and a little thought-provoking slabbing with just the right amount of shallow pockets. Sit start.

Sit start and up and over.

Start on the rail underneath the chockstone and pull out and over the top for the mantle. Only use holds and footers on the chockstone itself and not on the boulders on either side.

Sit start. Start on lh crimp and rh poor diagonal gaston, then up to a shallow groove and into a pocket. The alternative rh pinch might make it a bit easier. Try and hold on until the end. Cruxy sit.

Mantle the left side of the boulder.

Sit start with both hands on jugs and feet to the left (rock shelf below is out) traverse right along rail and then up to topout via more jugs.

Up the balancy slab to an airy topout.

Sit start with hands wide on side pulls and up. Awesome climbing.

Up the right side of the slab through easier terrain.

Up the slab through some slightly more balancy holds, topping out left of 'Taken For Granite'.

Likely one of quite a few lines/variants on this immaculate slab.

To the left of 'Paddy Marley', head up through the centre of the wall before traversing left to the good flakes, followed by a risky top-out.

From a stand already high in the air, dyno to the lip and mantel up. A lot harder mentally than physically, might want to give it a go on top-rope. No spotting possible.

Up through the crack to a jug and top out to the right.

An easy problem on the face. Sit-start yet to go.

An overhung crack (by 20+ degrees) - short but a bit goey as it's not very jammable. An awesome line worth jumping on though, quite technical.

Easily up past a very big flake.

From a standing start, latch a pinch with your right hand and whatever you can reach with your left. Deadpoint up to a flake then up and over.

As for Omo right, but head out left over an insecure mantel.

Another Omo variant! How many washing powders can you get? Start as for Omo then head far right through easy terrain over the big flake.

Flashed on the first ascent. Start on a crimp rail and crimp sidepull. Tension your way across right and then up to finish as for Omo. Technical and fingery.

Up over the slab.

Up using the right side arete. For best value, huck a big throw to the top from as low as possible.

Fridge hug your way up using both aretes.

Up using the left side arete.

Start on two crimps on the face (hard start) then up and over. Arete is out.

Up through some poor holds till you can get your feet set then out to finish right.

As per 'Pain in the Face' but finish directly up following the blunt arete rather than escaping right.

Up the arete.

After a few holds exploded what is left is a brutal crimp start to get onto a few poor side clings then somehow make your way up the face. There's not so much holds on this as there are vague tiny scoops and indents in the rock.

A bizarre sit start problem that is very body-morphic! True mantel practice.

Sit start around the corner from 'Don't Wanna Go To School'.

A hard sit start using the right sidecling and a higher pocket for the left hand. Atrocious feet.

Sit start then up without losing your balance and dropping onto the ground centimetres below.

Left hand side of the boulder.

Fridge hug your way up using the crack for your left hand and the arete for your right hand.

Straight up the crack. Overhung, but far easier than it looks.

Up the slab, avoiding the sides.

Up and top out. A slab.

'Nother slab.

Head up the slab.

Up the slab with graceful, bird-like steps.

A very hard sit-start with a ludicrously poor upside-down incut pinch and a right hand pinch to start. Throw to a rail and from there execute much easier moves to top out.

From a low start, follow the arete up and top out as for 'Egg Sandwiches'.

Hard sit start off a very poor right hand and a small incut for your left hand.

Up from a sit to an intermediate and onto a rail. Top out.

Sit start. Up through a small crimp for your right hand direct to a rail up high and top out.

Sit start and traverse right along underclings then up via hard lock-off in pocket. Very bad feet. May be easier if you're short.

Sit start direct and up. Odd moves, hard to get the sequence right.

Up through the centre of the boulder on okayish holds. A bit techy, need a bit of jiggery pokery and the rock's a bit sharp too!

Right hand variant/eliminate - stay right of the crack and use the slopers/slimpers to make your way up.

Sit start from the underclings. A hold broke off recently making this quite a bit easier. Stand goes around V0.

From the far left of the boulder, traverse above the crack line on slopers. Two ways to do this - easier if you go up to the rail and then the chicken-head, harder if you match at the low, poor incut then go straight out right for a pinch. Top out.

Hard sit start traverse through quite poor slopers. Fair sized moves on bad holds with... you guessed it, crap feet!

Another undercut sit-start! Cruxy moves getting round the belly of the boulder.

Start with your feet right underneath the boulder on the small rail, hands on good holds. Up and over following the arete - not unusually, the crux is getting right onto your feet.

Pleasant little crack.

Sit start then into the crack.

Sit start at left most wedged block then up the prow.

Sit start on average holds then up the groove.

Layback sit start then straight up.

Head up the obvious feature.

Sit start then head up through a fair sized move.

Start low right next to 'Magoo' then up and left to top out.

Traverse the boulder from right to left then top out for 'Ermagawd'.

Sit start and up. Easy.

Sit start on slopers then up. First move harder than the rest.

Up and over, nothing amazing.

A simple up and over.

Traverse the boulder right to left. Techy.

One hard move off an incut sidepull and a small nodule of rock to easy moves to make the top. The classic 'where do I put my feet' granite style...

Sit start from the underclings and up.

Nasty sit-start off holds facing the wrong way, though a goodish sidepull for the right hand, reach the high rail with your left hand and head on up with a fridge hug friction move.

Try not to bruise your butt falling 10 cms if you lose your grip. The most lowball sit-start you'll probably ever see.

Heal hooking sit start. Wrench on it up to the crimp on the left then up with the right.

Standard sit-start problem.

Straight up the crack-line looking longingly at the blank overhung face next to you.

Sit start and straight up to top out.

Sit start as for A Little Sheepish but as soon as standing traverse right to end of boulder and top out.

Bring your kids.

Another kid-friendly boulder. Bit shaky though, perhaps they should wear proper rock shoes.

Like a big warm hug.

Sit start and straight up hoping the big flake does not fall on you.

Sit start at very bottom of crack, up and left

Sit start, cruisy after the first moves.

Right side of boulder, sit start.

Left side slab to peak

Straight up through ever smaller footers.

Start obvious feature up to bright green lichen.
