FA: Lawrence Lee & Anthony Seah, 1989 | 7m, 4 | |||
5b | ★★ Valhalla
Start from the ground between Acrophobia and Desperado, straight upward to first bolt. Use the crack on the right hand side for side pull and traverse left towards the ledge. SS Anchor located at the right side below of Acrophobia's. Harder proposed variation: stay on the rock face and eliminate the crack side pull on the right hand and fully commit on the rock face crimps towards up the ledge. FA: Wal Othman Set: Zat, 14 Nov 2020 | 7m, 4 | |||
5b+ | ★ White Boys Can't Jump
Eliminate - Start on the crimpy beginning holds of Tales of Power, bearing left towards the right most crack of Desperado. Use the leftmost features of the face and the right hand edge of the crack to make progress upwards, staying well left of the bolts. Once you gain the horizontal ledge, rejoin Tales of Power on the thin flake to the finish at the bolted anchor. FA: Al Bear, 16 Apr 2016 | 7m, 4 | |||
6a+ YDS:5.10c | ★★ Tales of Power
FA: Lawrence Lee & Johnnie Hwang, 1990 | 7m, 4 | |||
5c+ | ★★ Uphill Gardening
Follows the open book corner. Keep strictly to the right all the way to the top. As of 1/7/2020 a large hold at the bottom of the climb was hanging off and was removed (by the FA’s) to protect others. This has increased the initial difficulties somewhat, but the climb retains its original character (just at a slightly more taxing grade). | 9m, 5 | |||

6b | ★★ Devil's hand
A Dairy Farm classic comprising technical face climbing. Set: Chiew Sien Chew, K.F. Tham & Benny Kuan FA: Chiew Sien Chew, 2001 | 25m, 8 | |||
6b+ | ★ Third Kid
Scramble start to a line that follows two parallel weaknesses in the rock. Work up to a natural break with two obvious (suspiciously perfect) handholds. Move right and mount the protrusion. Staying left, insecure moves bring you a large ledge. From here some powerful moves to reach the anchor. Set: Chiew Sien Chew & KF. Tham FA: Jeffrey Neo, 2001 | 26m, 8 | |||
6a+ | ★★ Living Water
Set: Chiew Sien Chew & K.F. Tham FA: You Rui | 29m, 10 | |||
Living Water - alternative finish
The first half follows the same line as 'Living Water', at the 5th bolt stay right and climb to the anchor on the vertical wall. | 28m | ||||
6b+ | ★ Sun Kiss
Route shares the first 5 bolts as 'Take it Easy' and then traverses to the left. Details originally posted here. FA: Andy Popeye, 2012 | 28m | |||
5a | ★ Take it Easy
Set: Chiew Sien Chew & K.F. Tham | 25m, 8 | |||
Direct | |||||
5a YDS:5.7 | ★★ Direct
Can be climbed with slight variations. As noted in the "Climb Singapore" guidebook, the bolts were originally placed as a "secondary protection" to help beginners learn to how to place traditional protection. This explains why the 2 separate lines of bolts are everywhere but where you need them. FA: Lawrence Lee & Anthony Seah, 1987 | 15m, 5 | |||
4a | ★ Staircase
Good for just topping off practice for beginner. Moss have been cleared. | 8m, 4 | |||

Set: Andy Su & You Rui FA: Andy Su, 2009 | 16m, 10 | |||
Chicken shit | |||||
6a+ | ★★ The Struggle Bus
The left most climb, starting on top of the ledge. Takes an ascending rightward line to a bulge, then proceeds direct to the anchors (swapped from rap bolts to a 10mm 316 load rated chain and mallions to mitigate the edge just below) Be careful of loose rocks (as always at DF). | 10m, 6 | |||
6c | ★★ Jugs For Africa
The second bolted line from the left on the shelf. The crux is the bouldery section through first two bolts before it merges with Struggle Bus to the anchors. Make sure to stick clip the first bolt or risk a serious mangling as you hit the ledge then the deck. Can be combined with Chicken Shit to go from the bottom to the top of the crag. | 9m, 3 | |||

ABCD | |||||
5c | ★★ He Re Jun Zai Lai
Unstable rock on the first pitch but fun climb. Two chains but some rusty anchors, and now obstructed by a fallen dead tree that needs to be removed. Second pitch is slabby, then vertical. Second pitch has no anchor and ends at a small bolt and impossible to retreat without leaving gear. Old aluminum locking biner there left by previous climbers. Set: Chiew Sien Chew & Toh Beng Cheong FA: Chiew Sien Chew & Melvin Chiang, 1996 | 43m, 2, 8 | |||

5b YDS:5.9 | ★ Stepping Up
Runs up the ledges to the right of the main crack. Quite mossy. Guidebooks say Trad only but appears to be recently bolted. Note: I think it's 11 bolts, but might have remembered wrong. Take a few extra just in case. FA: Johnnie Hwang & Lim Kim Boon, 1988 | 25m, 11 | |||

American Pie | |||||
5a | ★★ Unknown 1
(Unknown route) This is the route of the left of the face of the slab. | 8m, 4 | |||
4b | ★★ Unknown 2
(Unknown Route) This is the short route on the right of the slab. I believe it is just the beginning of "Art of Noise" but finishes just at the top of the slab, rather than moving around the back. | 8m, 4 | |||
5c | ★ Travesty
(sketchy) Traverse across the American Pie wall, starting from the Top of Pitch 1 on Stepping Up ABCD Wall. Finishes on top of American Pie. Full 2-pitch climb starts at bottom of ABCD finishes on top of American Pie. FA: Climb that turkey, 25 Jan 2015 | 12m, 4 | |||
6c | ★★ Little Mermaid
Climb the easy slab to make the first high bolt. From the slab, step out right to gain the face. Higher up traverse right. Route shares the anchor and last bolted protection with Rainmaker. Set: Mohd Halil & Shannon Tham, 1998 FA: Mohd Halil, 1998 | 20m, 8 | |||

Set: Christian Venetz & Mohd Halil, 1998 FA: Christian Venetz, 1998 | 20m, 8 | |||

Keep to the right side of the hangars and use the corner. The variation which just goes directly up the face is 6b+. Set: Peter Terbush & Scottie Nelson FA: Peter Terbush & Scottie Nelson | 22m, 9 | |||
6b+ | ★★ American Pie Variation
Climb the face instead of the corner | 22m, 9 | |||
7a | ★★ French Controversy
One move wonder slab. Do not use the side wall for the 7a. Set: Alan Silva | 6m, 2 | |||

Rock Star | |||||
7b | ★★★ Wing of redemption | 25m, 8 | |||
7a+ | ★★★ Baby Star
Steer clear of the arete to the right of the bolt line to avoid pulling head-sized rocks down on your belayer. | 25m, 9 | |||
5c | Short and Sweet
Some loose rocks on the route. Climb carefully and do not pull out rocks. | 10m, 4 | |||
6c | ★★ I Want to be Famous | 10m, 4 | |||
6b+ | ★★ Hangover | 10m, 4 | |||
6b | ★★ Pop Star | 8m, 3 | |||
7a | ★★ Rock Star
Ascend the face then transition right, under the overhang. Traverse rightwards. Be very careful when moving onto the large rock under the overhang - it may be unstable. It is easily identifiable with the steel bar which adds some security. Keep people on the ground away from this rock as you climb. Move over the overhang into a forgiving finish. | 20m, 9 | |||
The Nose | |||||
6b | In Memory of Mother Teresa
Set: Chiew Sien Chew FA: Chiew Sien Chew, 1998 | 25m, 9 | |||
Closed Project | 10 | ||||
6c | ★★ Swab Test
Starts from the ledge where the belay area for Alarette is, immediately to the right of Alarette's belay anchors, staying in the relatively sheltered corner for the first several meters before coming out onto the face and then punching straight up what would be the left nostril of the Nose. The 5th bolt may currently be slightly difficult for shorter climbers to clip. Placement was forced by the quality of the surrounding rock. It is intended to protect the move over the bulge, and it is highly recommended that climbers clip the 5th before making the traverse out left to get over that bulge. There are also a few blocks at the last 2 bolts which looked like they might come loose, but haven’t given way to tugging with body weight. Nevertheless, do be careful if you are giving the route a go. Hardware comprises Hilti HSA-R wedge bolts with Petzl hangers, all SS316. Anchors are currently two bolts, each with a quicklink/maillon. The quicklinks/maillons will soon be replaced with rated SS316 quicklinks. With all the craziness going on in 2020, and given the part of the Nose where the route is, Swab Test seemed the perfect name to memorialise the year. FA: Kang & QX, 11 Dec 2020 | 25m, 11 | |||
The Nose Right | |||||
6b | ★★ Morning Shadow | 33m, 2, 6 | |||
6a | Tiger Cliff
First bolt is quite high, can place 1 piece of natural pro to protect first move. Enjoy the rappel peg on the key hold of the crux. Second pitch is dirty. Quicklinks in the anchor bolts of the second pitch replaced on 29 Feb 2020. | 32m, 2, 6 | |||
