23 Thanos

Scramble up to ledge at base of Ben Hur and follow the 4 FH up face into small corner. Originally it traversed up and right across slab to the Scipio Africanus anchors from the 4th FH, but is better to now continue straight up to the anchor of Mephisto.

The starting ledge has been lowered somewhat by others, so a stick clip for the 1st bolt is recommended.

23 Redex Irlont Sudano

Possibly the best route at Werribee, and a nice easy tick at the grade.

Start 3m R of 'Golgotha'.

Easy slab, over bulge, then traverse R along lip. Up face 3m L of arete to gain finger crack finish. Lower-offs are on the R just below the capstone.

23 Holiday Sidewinder

Excellent and seriously underrated in previous guides.

Start beneath the proud arete 3m R of Redex.

The crux bulge down low is easier than appearances suggest, but very technical...and no piking off to the R! After the 2nd RB clip the next on the R face. Above that is an awesome airy sustained arete, stay on the R side at first, but move to the L side at the cave, and at the top step L to Redex's loweroffs.

Falcons Lookout Veni Vidi Vici Area
23 Pocko Wall

Start 1m L of 'Veni Vedi Vici'.

Clip first bolt from the block then go down, L and then up the face to a ledge. Up the block face above this to a double u bolt loweroff.

23/24 After the War

24 if you do the contrived start out right. May be slightly easier if tall or inclined to wander. Line of RBs 2m right of VVV. Clip first RB from block then return to ground to start. Nice boulder problem then grey streak direct (thin between 3rd and 4th bolts). From 4th RB diagonally right to finish as for TFTP to new double UB lower off.
