Garden Wall

The black cliff behind Mari and beneath Copyright Wall. Has shade in summer until about 2pm.

Emergency Location: Mount Arapiles, Skyline Walls Area

19 I Am Not A Pork Chop

Very nice, albeit short. A rare sport route at this grade at Araps. There is gear after the last bolt, but it's very easy.

18 Brown Thumb

Line left of Greenfingers past two bolts plus gear to anchor.

15 Greenfingers

Climb the wall L of the easy crack (Eat Your Greens) by way of large scoops, then veering L after Brown Thumb's second bolt and up to anchor. Not heaps of gear (though Nod reckons it's "well protected"!). You can go direct which is not much harder but is quite runout.

13 Blue Toes

Take Greenfingers to the bollard next to the scoop at 7m then step right and follow arete. Gear not great in top half.

12 Eat Your Greens

Up short right-facing corner and deep line right of Greenfingers. Near the top, veer left across the wall to the rap station. Originally graded 10 by Noddy.

14 Easier Access

Avoids the unprotected start of Access, to end up with a pleasant face climb. Traverse right from the start of Eat Your Greens to a crack in a scoop and climb up from there.

18 R Access

Start right of Eat Your Greens at the dark grey section of slab. Up boldly to first gear at 6m. Continue up wall 1m left of Pet Parsley until the two routes merge for lower angled finish. 30m lower off.

18 Pet Parsley

Up tiny ramps to bolt left of WMT. Up to bottomless crack in pod and to ledge on WMT. Step left and up wall. There are good small wires between bolt and pod if you look around.

14 Wild Mountain Thyme

Start at the crack R of A. Up the R crack, which doglegs left at half height. Good rock and climbing. Chain at about 30m.

14 Wild Mountain Sage

Start as for WMT. Continue right and up the crack. Finish left at WMT anchor.

16 John Thomas

Start 1.5m R of WMT. Bouldery start with not much gear then wall to break. Step R then up grey wall to finish up Babylon.

16 Babylon

Start 3m L of a gumtree at R end of the wall. Up the intermittent L line of the faint twin lines then featured slab to anchor. Hard and tricky to protect start. 30m abseil.

15 A Weed in the Garden

The R line, 1.5m right of Babylon. Balancy start to first gear at 4m. Up intermittent crack to shared anchor with Babylon.

14 Pitchfork

Up the line behind gum tree at right end of cliff. Meander left at top to anchor of Babylon or continue to base of Skyline Walls. Enjoyable climbing but be careful of large questionable blocks at 10m.

20 Indecisivity

Slab, crack, then steep but somewhat contrived arête. Take some wires and mid size cams for the middle section.

23 Misunderestimated

Thin seam with bolt on next wall down from Pitchfork that looks about 5 grades easier than it actually is. Tenuous and technical and maybe even be 24. Someone go to onsight it and let me know! Lower off.

23 Procrastinationable

The first of 2 intermittent cracks above the tiny gully heading down towards Reaper. Up line through overlap then the diagonal line above to anchors on Pritchard's Neuralgia.

18 Pritchard's Neuralgia

Down from Misunderestimated are 2 lines up a short grey bulging wall. Up the right line, climb over or around a large detached block depending on how mad you are feeling to a grey seam leading to ledge under orange roof. Lower off. Watch rope if using 50m.

20 Puggle Burrow

From the start of PN, scramble up gully towards base of vegetated, mossy corner (Gethsemane). Just before the corner is a seam and groove to a ledge then a crack up the orange and black wall to big orange roof. At roof, traverse left to anchors on PN. Don't lower off with a 50m rope.

14 Gethsemane

Start at the far right, beneath the highest part of the wall, where a striking but vegetated line goes up and L under roofs 20m up. Bridge up the groove to the R end of the roof. Now swing up R and up grey wall.

To descend, walk up to base of Copyright and scramble carefully down to chains on WMT.

22 Cogito Ergo Wobble

Scramble R along the ledge from the block at the start of Pritchard's Neuralgia. Starts up the easy corner, can be done as a sport route but worth taking a medium cam for before the first bolt. Wild overbolting mitigates the dubious jug.
