Amazing position right next to Katoomba Falls, with an airy, mixed-quality set of pitches. You can be seen by the tourists from about five different vantage points, so expect some cheering\heckling\posing.
Bring a rack of cams 0.3 to 4, and 5 bolts plates as well as the usual kit.
Approach by walking down the creek above Katoomba Falls (yes, in the creek - access from below Katoomba Cascades) until near the top of the main falls. Be careful as the rock is extremely slippery, and with enough rainfall the water can be quite high and fast-flowing. Belay carefully from shrubs near the top of the main falls.
15m (18) A traverse access pitch! Traverse hard right to gain the major flake, then up this to 2 x carrot bolt belay. Belay from here. Now rap 20m to a hanging 2 x carrot bolt belay directly below.
20m (23) 1 carrot + trad. Up, trending right to flake feature and carrot. Then directly up to gain major right-facing flake. Be sure to save a 0.4/0.5 for after you've stuck the crux. Belay from the 2 x carrot bolt belay you just rapped from.
15m (22) 1 Fixed Hanger, 1 carrot + trad. Kinda scary and a bit loose. Carefully traverse left from the belay, and punch up to gain fixed hanger. Then traverse back right and up via waco to crimp rail. Hard traverse left to jugs, thread and gear. Then back right and up via very punchy moves to ironstone block on the lip of the roof. Mantle this to gain carrot bolt, then doddle upwards to top-out. Belay off convenient collection of shrubs.
To find your way back to the path, bush bash straight up the hill until you reach the main pathway.
