Routes in Gold Coast for selected grade

15m up left trending gully. From tree step right into corner and up corner system to bushes at half height. A classic climb, with excellent jambs and bridging, great holds where you need them and excellent gear. Layback at the bulge with more bomber gear and split crack. Loose rock at the top.. Wire runner at top for belay. A 70m rope to wrap back to the tree, or take 2 ropes.

Initialled start. Be wary of the Bees nest on the 2nd pitch.

Just R again. Face route up pillar on bolts next to good gear. Up past break to small sickle-crack (sling), then to ledge. Finish as for Anaconda. A great lead.

The most obvious route here. 2m R of pillar and marked by some weird metal spikes sticking out down low. Attractive, sinuous crack up corner to small roof, then ramble out.

Sit start below lower flake, move up to lower flake and follow. Move up to upper flake and top out on the far right with mantle. If possible, start at the lowest point of boulder as sand can affect the starting point. Located on the other side of Grasshopper's Rock and starts on the bottom of the two flakes that run up from left to right.

Hard start and technical climbing, follow the obvious seam to the top. Marked "T"

A bit of thought required on this. Grade may be harder if placing the draws.

About 20m right of Tinka is this slab route. Bolted with FH's. Slightly runout to where it steepens. A bit adventurous. Chains on right.

Short and fun - a popular warm-up. Most find this a pumpy little 18.

Climb the right side of the arete on cool knobby rock. Shares chains with The Tyke and both 21s to the right.

Start at bottom of obvious crack corner. Right under the roof, belay, then back left onto jugs.

1. 18m 18 Good luck.

2. 22m 15 The right hand line.

Start below obvious corner and jam up

1. 18 32m To tree belay. Hard Jamming.

2. 14 10m Right near the top.

Note: tree belay might not be there 48yrs on. One can otherwise just run the pitches together.

Thin vertical start off the ground to a small slab section, then up to the beginning of the sharp arete. Many options here to continue; face, crack, side pull, layback, or the most compelling option is to go bold straight out on the corner of the arete hanging one leg either side. Plenty of holds but definitely not a gimme, you'll have to explore to find jugs, pockets and crimps. Continue up the arete and/or face to anchor. Great moves and so much fun, a highlight for the sector!

A great short climb with some nice moves and holds that aren't immediately obvious making for a very challenging onsight at the grade. Usually shaded but mid morning can present a cheeky challenge through the crux. Best when starting from the lowest ground level (not the higher ground to the left), but stick clip the first bolt if required.

Varied climbing styles with great moves and several options through this 3D line. Start right of the little dihedral corner, up 5m to ledge, continue on the back wall up the left side of the obvious curving arete. Optional rests can be found along the curving arete before a committing to the next wall with a much sharper arete to the anchor. Belayer stay focused and watch the fall zone between bolts 5-6, potential to deck on a protruding rock below if you're not careful.

Some nice moves through the crux sequence at the start, then a cruisy slab to the anchors.

Update: All the bolts on this route have been chopped by ranger.

This is a really fun climb on a unique and fascinating pillar feature. A sustained thin and crimpy route so rest as often as you can. 5 bolts + lower off anchor. Easy to top out above the anchor if you want to enjoy the summit for a while. This was the first route to go up at WS.

Thought provoking three dimensional climbing up the flake and corner system leads to a stellar move through the bulge. Gear is good where you need it, lower half requires a bit of focus around spaced gear (#5 won't go astray, but not required).
