16 PG | Jimmy John's Direct
Great adventure climbing. Climbs the big grey wall (Jimmy John's Wall) across the Eureka gully from Clean Cut Walls and directly below Eureka. From the Eureka gully, step right and up across a short ramp (5 meters), then straight up for 50 meters across low angled, highly feature and highly fun rock! Climb through the middle of the upper headwall (10 meters) via a short left facing corner and then up and right through the steep face to the top of the wall. The climb can be done in one 70 meter pitch, but it may be preferable to belay in the middle of the low angled wall as the upper headwall is steap and gear can be difficult to place. Descend by walking straight back to the Eureka Wall, which will place you at the bottom of Veggie Maths. FFA: Phil Gruber & Jimmy Gruber, 21 Sep 2014 | 70m | |||
11 | ★ Going In Blind
1: starting 15 metres left of Nose Hairs climb direct up slab/ramp to left side of roof at half height (40m) 2: Traverse out left and up over bulge easily and up and right joining into Nose Hairs for summit. FA: Jimmy & Louis Godsell, 19 Apr 2015 | 90m, 2 | |||
10 | Nose Hairs
Start in an alcove behind a tree at the very lower left corner of Jimmy John's. Climb up and right toward the arete, belaying in the low angle rock. Continue toward the arete and over a small roof, into the nose hairs, belaying on the arete after passing the steep section above the roof. Continue up the arete to the top of Jimmy John's. FA: Jimmy, lily & phil Gruber | 100m | |||
17 | Heisenburg's Uncertainty Principle
The position and momentum of this route can not be simultaneously determined. Not in the same class as the rest of the crag. The next crack left of Newton's Law, 3 metres left of Maxwell's Demon, move left at ledge and continue straight up. FA: James & Melanie McIntosh, 1992 | 50m | |||
20 | ★ Maxwell's Demon
A thought experiment intended to show that the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics has only a statistical certainty. Start 4m L of Newton's Law. Wall just R of easy crack to ledge, trend R up grooves. FA: James & Melanie McIntosh with a rest or 2., 1992 | 20m | |||
24 | ★★ Newton's Law
Noddy's physics need a brush up...there are three Newton's laws, not one! Start under the nice thin crack on the L side of the wall. A great thin crack to the walk-off ledge. FA: Keith Lockwood & Steve Monks, 1991 | 30m | |||
23 | ★★ Diminishing Returns (Top Half)
Start as for Darwin's Theory for 10m then blast straight up orange wall past very spaced bolts and finish up grey headwall. FA: Kent Paterson, 2012 | 30m, 5 | |||
20 | ★★ Darwin's theory into Diminishing returns
Link up - Climb Darwins Theory to the top of the first pitch (obvious big break) the head up Diminishing returns for the last couple of bolts to anchor | 20m | |||
18 | ★★★ Darwin's Theory (1st 2 pitches)
Survival of the fittest. Described without the third pitch so that it gets noticed as a fantastic 2 pitch 18. Start: Start as for Newton's Law.
FA: Steve Monks & Keith Lockwood, 1991 | 55m, 2 | |||
23 | Darwin's Theory pitch 3
Natural selection in action: nobody does this. Start: Start at the rap anchor above Pythagoras' Theorem. FA: Steve Monks & Keith Lockwood, 1991 | 10m | |||
24 | ★ Foucault's Pendulum
A great pitch that goes all on natural gear. Follow the first pitch of Darwin's Theory to the second thread in the huecos (just below the piton). From the big thread, traverse out right across the weakness that is visible leading all the way across into Archimedes' Principle, finishing as for that route. FA: Ross Taylor & Adam Demmert, 2009 | 45m | |||
22 | ★ Archimedes Principle P1
| 20m | |||
26 | ★★★ Archimedes' Principle
"Any object, wholly or partially immersed in a fluid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object." Routes like this are why you travel for hours/days to get to the 'Grampians'. First 2 pitches are often worked in 1 pitch from the ground. Start: Start under a low bolt at the base of the most impressive part of the wall.
FA: Keith Lockwood (p1), Steve Monks (p2 & 3), 1991 | 60m, 3, 2 | |||
27 | ★★ String Theory
Start: Start as for AP
Adam Demmert and John Schmit climbed pitch 1 in 2009. The Adam and Malcolm did the second in 2014 FFA: adam demmert, jono schmidt & Malcolm Matherson, 17 Nov 2014 | 80m, 2, 8 | |||
20 | ★ Pythagoras' Theorem P1
| 10m | |||
26 | ★★★ Pythagoras' Theorem
a2 + b2 = c2. Prepare your groin for some hypotenuse action. The other ultra-classic line here. It's supposed to finish via the third pitch of "Darwin's Theory" but this is often ignored. Start: Start under the central corner.
FA: Keith Lockwood (1) & Steve Monks (2-3), 1991 | 50m, 2, 3 | |||
26 | ★★ Ockham's Razor
"The simplest explanation or strategy tends to be the best one" This is a direct of the arête of Pythagoras' Theorem and was climbed as one long pitch. Start as for PT first pitch, at ledge clip first bolt and climb face between arête and corner. When level with first bolt move on to arête proper and follow this all the way to the top alcove. There is a tricky crux just before you join PT on the arête. 5 carrot bolts and trad. FFA: adam demmert, 2009 | 40m, 5 | |||
30 | ★★★ General Relativity
Starts as per PT moving right at undercling flake. Moves into PD for 10m then weaves up incredible thin face. FA: 2014 | 48m | |||
28 | ★ Cats & Dogs
Straightens out SC. Starts up SC, finishes up headwall of KP project. FA: clean cut phil | 10 | |||
25 | ★★ Schrodinger's Cat
Kitty is simultaneously alive and dead ... until you look. Start 15m R of 'Pythagoras Theorem'. Short steep corner crack then L up ramp past bolt. Back R through overlap to 3 more bolts up the wall above. FA: Steve Monks & Martin Scheel, 1991 | 45m, 4 | |||
25 | ★★★ Vege Maths
Amazing line.Finishes at SC anchors. FA: Toby Pola & Kent Paterson | 30m, 8 |
