★★ Ben Trovato
![]() | 150m, 3 | ★★ Very Good | |||
First pitch excellent. The rest not bad either. Awesome exposure and a pretty cool adventure. We stuffed up the end. Finished 4th pitch in the gully and had to go up on some dirty and suspect rock to top out. Still, a climb well worth the effort.
(My last climb in Australia...

Very good. Pitch one is gold. Pitch two a bit less so... I'm not much of a trad climber, so it felt solid. Very exposed climbing on natural gear with enough bolts to keep it safe. If you are not topping out don't bother with pitch 3...
