1966 | |||||
23 | ★★★ Orestes
You can climb all of pitch 1 and the good bit of pitch 2 in a single mega pitch, then step left to the anchor of 'Afterburner'. It's a great shame that this new anchor wasn't placed 2m to the R on the front of the arete, as this would have allowed the leader to clean their own gear, but as it is someone will need to second if you do this extended version. Start: Start at the big corner on the Flight Deck.
FA: Jim Newlands & John Bennett, 1966 FFA: Kim Carrigan (1st pitchand LHV 13/3/84), Glenn Tempest (2nd pitch & 8/76), 1979 | 40m, 2 | Arapiles | ||
1968 | |||||
22 R | ★★ Plimsoll Line
Straight up to Orestes' first anchor. Beware, this route is often slimy, and the pro down low is fiddly mediocre RPs. Originally had pitons, they were eventually replaced with bolts but those were ripped out by the ethics police, so good luck... Start: Start at the thin left-facing corner 4m right of 'Orestes'. FA: Clive Parker, Chris Baxter & John Moore, 1968 FFA: Kim Carrigan, 1978 | 15m | Arapiles | ||

Start: Start left of the big corner of "Orestes", about 4m Left of It'll Never Fly. FA: Geoff Weigand (Kim Carrigan climbed the first 8m (grade ~27) as the direct start to Have a Good Flight), 1984 | 18m, 8 | Arapiles | ||
26 R | ★ Celine and Julie Go Bolting
There is good small gear and a peg at the start of Plimsoll to get going. Traverses right past a bolt to a rest then up past a second to a runout section. Airy. FA: Louise & Lincoln Shepherd, 1984 | 15m, 2 | Arapiles | ||
