{UIAA} 3 | ★ 11
Routes 11,12,13 and 14 start right of the big pinnacle. It is possible to traverse right to these from the pinnacle area, though the traverse is harder than any move on the climbs. Climb a right-trending chimney to steepening and hence a tree belay. Now easy rocks to the top. | ||||

{UIAA} 3 | ★★ NE Gully and Ridge
Time: Half a day. An obvious fully leads to the North-East Ridge. Then rope down to another gully which leads to the summit. A much better (if harder) variation to this route is to follow the first gully until the wall steepens. Go up and traverse left, then follow cracks up to a tat belay. Fun, maybe Severe climbing with a well-protected crux. From belay go up until te ridge, then follow right to top. Descent is back down the same route on tat anchors. Check this and add your own tat. 3 proper pitches, the initial gully can easily be scrambled or simul-climbed. FA: Eric E. Shipton & H.W. Tillman, 1930 | 3 | |||

{UIAA} 3 | ★★ South East Gully
Climb the prominent wide gully on the SE Face. Take the right-hand branch leading to the main ridge at a prominent sharp V-notch. The most difficult parts are just before reaching the main ridge, and from here to the summit. Variation: Where the gully branches, the left-hand route may be taken. This gully, less clearly defined, joins the other route on the summit ridge. (Grade III, J I Moore and H C Pereira, Aug. 1949). When free of snow this gully can be climbed down without abseiling (III). The tower buttress right of the South-East Gully may also have been climbed by a Cape Town University party, in January 1965.

3 | Launch Pad
Launch Pad is a low-angled pitch suitable for beginners, partly because the route is pretty obvious and can be clearly viewed from the bottom. A shallow boulder on the ground near the base of the climb makes a fine perch for the belayer.
