Beschreibung

Split Rock is a large roadside boulder with a large crevice running through the guts of it that offers some short and fun stemming style routes. A couple of anchors can be found on top (used for commercial operations) to set up top ropes for these. An off-width crack runs up the downstream face offering something for the trad climbers, while the boulderers can throw themselves on some hard and steep problems on the river side face.

There also exists a condensed cluster of boulders just upstream of Split Rock, which offers a number of quality problems in a good spread of grades and styles. There are a few gems to be found here!

The downstream side of split rock, again, offers a couple more boulders.

Einschränk. übernommen von Cairns

Be wary at any coastal or riverside crags for the potential of crocodiles and if you're in the water marine stingers.

Zustieg

Drive along Barron Gorge Rd and park at the obvious boulder (Split Rock) and 'Evac Point 1' sign on the left hand side of the road. Access to the bottom is easiest tracing the upstream side of Split Rock. Alternative access to the upstream cluster of boulders clusters can also be found adjacent to the 2nd 'Crest' sign.

Boulders are listed in order from downstream to upstream.

Ethik übernommen von Barron Gorge

Brush holds, respect veg, wildlife, and the rock as much as possible. Take all that goes with you back out of the gorge inc. fruit scraps. Please also take any rubbish you find.

Rock behind you is not in. Can either be done as a highball boulder or on top rope.

Start matched on obvious flat hold. Tricky moves through slopey holds lead to tough move into the slot. Use small LH crimp to gain the big sloping rail, follow it left and up above questionable landing. Bush-bash to the top.

Currently unclimbable due to recent flooding. The landing needs rebuilding.
