Routen in The Soft Parade

Bolted L side of arête just R of descent gully.

Up to 2nd bolt, move left to arete and follow to lower-offs. A direct finish following the bolts is harder than the grade 11 or 12.

Short buttress with undercut start

Short slab crack with lower off. Great training ground for fledgling trad leads.

Up the slab.

Up the slab just to the right of ASAP.

A few metres right of Prompt Delivery.

Up the middle of the slab.

3m right of Devious Diversions.

1m left of SC. Start up past blocks moving right to crack. (needs ddb on top)

Up slab left of Honk On.

Up the flake - bridge, layback, jamb - take your pick!

Right side of Honk On. Shares the same rings and top anchors. Instead of the crack, climb the face to the right of it.

Face 2m right of Honk On.

Head left after first ring

(Training DBB below).

Right hand route on the wall.

Start on the right hand edge of the block.

Stays just left of the arête. Careful belay for the last clip.

The wall a meter or so right of arete.

About 2 meters right of the arête.

Chimney the trench (Get in from underneath and stay in the trench).

Face and arete on a buttress 10m right of Visions Fade.

Line of RB's to DBB left of SF's arête.

Corner and arête.

Slab right of Sensitive Freight.

Has two sets of anchors. Only grade 10 to first set.

20m right of The Last of the Jelly Beans. (Can be done as multi pitch).

3m right of Upstairs Downstairs. Start: On top of boulder.

Up in the corner.

First route coming down from corner.

Slab (Can be done as multi pitch).

Corner crack start (Can be done as multi pitch).

First route after cave. Up boulder; then wonders a bit. (Last move to top of wall at anchor included in the ticket)

First climb after alcove.

Corner crack to start then right onto face. Continue around the arête then up.

Start off block on right side of arête.

Three pitches, including a heady rightward traverse on good feet and non-existent hands.

P1. Start on block as for CCLM. Step across to wall and climb right side of arete. Head right on ledge to main wall and belay. 7 rings.

P2. Traverse right on lip of overhang. Balance-y and a little scary! 6 rings

P3. Step right to corner and climb up to final belay.

Descent: 60m easily reached the ground from top belay

Gully. Better than it looks. Belay off dodgy tree. Anchor will be provided one day.

Climb the chimney, outside or the inside (you pick your poison).

For Mita. Steep jugs.

Up wall then right. Up wall then left.

Barry stuck with it and fought for this one. Took quite a few falls at the top. (At like, pushing 80yo).

In the memory of our buddy Graham Smith.

And Yes, there is a sweet spot to it!

As in Ooomphf...

Up the flake, around the block however you please, and then up the perfect layback crack to a mantle. Double ring belay over the top

For all those of us who wont put down our outdoor gear. Bring out your Johnny Dawes slab shoes and moves. Bolted by Barry and climbed by MattB after permission from Barry. A sneaky high L hand hold and rock over is the key to this route and then dance your way to the top. Still a little dirty towards the top but the route eases off.

Linkup between The Quality of Mercy and Ageing Gracefully. Start up The Quality of Mercy through to the fourth bolt then up around the vegetated ledge to finish on the last bolt and anchor of Ageing Gracefully. The harder moves are well protected but not being an intended route the easier ground is run out.

Start on the short arête, gain the ledge and traverse right into A Pound Of Flesh (Extra points if you recognize the link between the names). Originally known as Fast-Forward. Grade is up for review

Cruxy start straight up to the anchors. Sharp pockets may extract their pound. Originally known as Rewind. First ascent was direct to the first bolt but I believe earlier attempts started further right. The grade is up for review.

Left leaning flake corner.

Given there is an anchor at top this must have been climbed? No doubt projected? Its excellent! The thin seam leading to small corner 10m right of "I've Sent Sent Your Saddle Home". Very well protected on c3's and small wires, with a bunch of small cams, an obvious #4 and a 0.5 at the top being the two largest cams. Funky top out to two bolts. A lot of cleaning required then a back to back send. Its kinda hard for a bit..like really..but on bomber gear.

There's a trick to it.

Up to the roof that projects like a "Skater's Cap", hand traverse right and up to lower-offs.

Trends left.

Corner.

Climb the right side of the arete. Give up climbing if you can't guess the story behind the name.

Up wall, traverse right, then up to finish.

Climb out route for alternative track. Last climb at crag. You can walk in and abseil above this route. Rings in boulder.

The climb on the free standing pillar. Take 12 draws.

Start on the big block to the right, hand traverse on the crimp rail to the left arete. Put up a good fight to stand on top of the pillar. Walk 2m to the left and bridge on to the headwall. Tricky but comparatively easier moves guard the exit.

Left on the Juggy Wall
