Routes as boulder in Upper Gara Gorge

Good but contrived

Sweet layback problem

Thin and crimpy

Thinner and crimpier

Try it with no hands!

The arete on the right of the crack

Arete to left of crack

Tall mans start up rail, then hard long move left to link into other rail.

Sit down start, sweet moves using only the right side of the crack and stay on the face at the top.

Start far left practically lying on the ground and slap all the way around the the juggy mantle

Only known repeat by Matt Wrigley.

Sit start on the big flak, go straight up on big holds. Good warm-up, variations exist to make it more difficult. Walk off to the right.

Start low on left, heel hook your way up and right under roof, the up and mantle.

Sit start on obvious jug on west side of boulder. Head up then right to right facing rail and up to crimp slope top-out.

Sit start on bottom right of obvious flake. Up flake then head left and up into corner. Use pocket in corner then up.

Sit start on bottom right of obvious flake. Up flake then up avoiding the corner and use the slight arete to the right of corner.

Sit start on good edges, long reach to lip, then mantel.

Easier variation is to use large detached block for the feet at start.

Stand start, delicate laybacking up the obvious feature to mantle top-out.

Ascend the arete on nice open handed slopers to the left, then mantel.

Blunt arete, with a fairly high wide pinche to start.

Start on small edges, dyno to large edge/ledge

Start on tiny crimps and dyno to horizontal break, then up to top.

Climb the thin crack.

On the east face of boulder climb slab with seam to horizontal break, which is usually wet, then left and to top.

Sit start on good two hand edge with a high foot. Dyno up and left to good edge, then up into groove to top.

Start on good edge, up to open handed sloper, then up to tiny crimp, then sloper, high step and done.

the obvious finger crack that goes up then left across slab to another crack and up. Good fun.

Just left of the finger crack is a micro right facing corner. Start there and go to nice edge then mantel and finish as for the finger crack.

Start in the crack on the left side of boulder with the thin little tree growing in it at half height. Climb crack not using the tree.

Start half a metre right of the crack with the tree in it. Up thin crimps to join the horizontal crack above. It is a elimination variation so try and not to use the crack to your left.

Start to the right of the finger crack and without using it, proceed up the very thin slab.

Sit start on undercling with high foot up to edge. Traverse right along sloping lip to edges then up into corner and top.

Alternate start avoids the undercling and starts at the traverse.

Excellent problem, has more than 4 moves!!

V5 rating is a guess for the sit start, and starting at the traverse would be V2 (ish)

Sit start under overhang on left side on well chalked undercling/sidepull. Go straight up on crimps to mantel top-out.

Sit start on large jug under overhanging face on huge jug. Up to more jugs then slopers and mantel top out.

Climb the crack in the corner.

Start on good edge with right hand to the left of the corner and climb face to top.

Climb the arete to the left of the corner. Mantle up on huge jug, then up arete.

Trend right over crimps and top out.

Start on the tooth/flake and straight up.

Up the face just right of the crack.

Up the crack.

Layback and then nothing?

Doesn't look it, but it is good value. It is to the left further of the Arete.

Sit start and follow groove to top. Could use another light scrub as of October 2010.

Crimps to edge - then traverse the lip to E13 as a warm-up

Thin crimps to top.

Thin crimps to top.

Start as for E10, when you get to the lip, traverse right to the corner and around it to E13.

Slightly over hang wall to the right of the corner.

The cube like boulder downhill and east of the Catacomb roof has a crimpy problem starting on the right arete, going across face to the left and up. Guessing at the grade, could be harder.

Nice and tall arete just east of catacomb roof 30m. Not sure of the name either. Grade should be close.

Up the right arete.

Crimps up the face.

Up left arete.

Sit start at bottom of right arete, climb to top.

Crimps to the top.

Desperate crimps up face, hold broke off as well, grade is a guess.

Sit start on the flake and head up to sloper then top. Many variations exist to make it harder or easier.

Heinous crimps up improbable face, grade is a guess.

Up the right side of this well featured and somewhat mossy but climbable face.

Up the left side of this well featured and somewhat mossy but climbable face.

Up the blunt low angle arete? Grade a guess.

Start on crimps above alcove then mantle.

Start on crimps to the right and head up and left towards large feature. Holds have broken so grade could be different.

Interesting sequence off angled rail to break of through roof.

easy slab on left of boulder.

Follow flake up to thin slab mantle.

As for Pseudo proper, but go left and do a mantle on slopers.

Standing start on tiny crimps and head up to small left facing corner, then top.

As for QR but continue R along features in seam and poor feet until you reach obvious edge & pocket in roof then up and mantle.

Up crimps and leaning arete left of Vulcanology, over pond after rain.

Another 10m towards the creek on your right is a short boulder.

On the back of the triangle, start on slopey ledge and mantle / dyno to top

SDS the traverse left and top out. Various finishes, the longer the harder

SDS and straight up

Sit start with both hands on on the right jug of Quickdraw Direct, pull up and slap, then slap again to sloper and mantel. Hint: get your right foot high and right.

Juggy but awkward

Easy slap then side mantle and up

Sit start at tiny dihedral to the left of detached block at base of boulder, layback and throw up to sloper then latch huge edge, mantel onto it and slab to top.

Climb the arete!

Climb the slab to the right of left arete, up through slight bulge on good edges.

Climb the face on thin and sharp crimps. Watch out for ants at the top out. Check before climbing.

Climb the slabby blunt arete on good holds, sit down and start on flak/block to make it longer.

Climb straight up the undercling.

Climb up the thin slight scoop with the seam.

Sit start, use holds on left face and arete to mantel onto top of boulder.

Slap up the arete with right hand to ascend face.

Sit start and use left arete, the right, then left to top of spike. Sit to make it almost worth while, almost.

Easy compression warmup

Sloper start, then slap up and right

Up layback / jam to jug

Thin holds facing the wrong way

Sit start the whole traverse

Start further back along the seam, the further left the harder so it's a bit of a choose your own adventure. You can finish up from the pocket as for Warmup or there are several variant direct finishes

Start in the good pocket, one slap and then mantle

Eliminate the massive jug and just mantle

Easy hold, dyno to right jug

Layback the crack and top out on the left face

As for the regular traverse, but instead of going to high slopes above start holds, go further left onto small crimps, then drop down onto good edge further left and stay a bit lower than the regular traverse.

Note: noticed on 10-Nov-2010 that one of the small crimps has broken off, so it could be a lot harder now (Ben V*t to blame?)

Climb the obvious hand crack on the east face of boulder.
