A good route not in the usual vain of Swinburne in that this is a Trad route with bolts when and where there is no Trad gear. The abseil and belay stances are also bolted. The line uses natural lines of weakness to get to the very top grasslands of Rensbergs' Kop. The summit beacon is 15 mins hike from the top stance. It however remains essentially a Trad route and climbers need a good sense of mountain craft and Trad skills. The first and second pitches need 3 or 4 size 5 and 6 cams. For the descent a minimum 2 x 50m ropes and 4 abseils. If using 60m ropes it can probably be done in 3 abseils. Route

17/18 | Trad Ain't Bad
Climbs the crack-line starting 4m left of the corner chimney on the right hand side of the inverted V slab above the forest. The route is left of HONEYCOMB.
Note: A 60m rope just reaches the bottom with a bit of a stretch, take care and put knots in the rope. Possibly safer to use 2 ropes. FA: Roland Magg, 2002 | 35m | |||

This is actually quite a moderate route and is over-graded in comparison to other routes in the area (and country, in general). The fourth pitch, currently graded 15, is probably 9 and no other pitch harder than 16/17. Note that the route is laid out in a manner entirely different to other routes in the area - some pitches are in excess of 50m long and require as many as 20 quickdraws. A 60m rope is necessary. It is possible to avoid the final pitch by walking off towards the left. Descend by hiking around the back of the mountain and down the gully between Eagle Crag and Eagle's Head. Be aware that there are chains in the vicinity of the top of the route that appear to be abseil chains, however, it is unclear whether it is possible to abseil the route and at least one party has been rescued after becoming stranded on a ledge.

18 | ★ Over Easy
Start just to the right of the previous route. Step up off the block and climb the steep face by starting up the stem of the Y-shaped crack line. Move up the left-hand crack line at the fork and continue up to the chains. This line uses the anchors at the top of the previous route - see note above. FA: Grant Murray, 1993 | 5 | |||

18 | ★★ Lay-In
To the right of 'Siesta' there is a deep, wide crack in the boulder. Layback up the right-hand side of the crack as far as possible, step out to the right and then continue straight up to the anchors which are shared with the next route. FA: Gerhard Kruger, 1995 | 6 | |||

18 | ★ Frozen Chocolate Milkshake
Climb the line of bolts up the black water streak. The bolts are quite widely spaced. | ||||
18 | Polar Crossing
Climb up just to the right of the black water streak. Tend slightly right towards the top. Climb the higher crux by laying away to the right. Apparently some of the holds have broken off near the top of 'Tundra' and 'Polar Crossing' making these routes more tricky than expected. | ||||
18 | ★ Tundra
Start towards the right-hand side of the north face. Pull up awkwardly onto the rock then move diagonally right to the arête. Continue up, on or next to the arête. There is a thin move near the top but going left up the diagonal break is just as tricky. | ||||
18 | ★ Slush Puppy
Start just to the right of 'Chill Out'. The start is tricky and the next few moves are also quite thin but the climbing eases off higher up. Be careful clipping the second bolt | ||||
